Agriculture have developed a "Basic Pudding Mix" using skim milk powder. r,� The , mix 'needs only to have water added before the cooking. A small amount, . of butter improves the smoothness. The 4 flavoringw " is added last. I addition to being economical, ,41 is convenient because it can be •stored in a cored container on a kitchen shelf. The mix doesn't always have . to appear on the table in the same form. The- -mother or daughter who makes the vanilla pudding may garnish it with fresh,' frozen or canned fruit. She may make both vanilla and chocolate flavored puddings; place alternate. Layers in glass parfait dishes and have , a party -type dessert. She may achieve a different flavor appeal by adding ° a dash or two of peppermint v extract to - the chocolate'' pudding: •'1f• she is riot aware that skim milk 'powder -can be Whipped she may -wish to -try. it and use it in place of the vanilla pudding for the .layered effect, • She may even use the mix to make a pie. Indeed the canister of the skim milk' powder pudding mix may ,turn out to be • the cook's "bag of tricks."
