Save the Dough for Rolls

When bread is ready to go into the tins in the morning and hot rolls are desired for the evening meal, a part of the dough may be divided into small rolls, each roll dipped in melted butter and placed in a shallow pan and set aside in the refrigerator until evening. The rolls will not rise in the refrigerator, but will come up quickly after taking them from the refrigerator into a warm kitchen. The rolls can be baked in ten or twelve minutes and are ready when the rest of the meal is served.-H. I. F., New London, Conn.

SAVE TIME IN PREPARING CITRUS FRUITS FOR SALAD In making fruit salad or cocktail one often wishes to remove the sections of the orange or grapefruit in whole pieces from the white membrane to which it is attached. If the following procedure is used much time and labor will be saved, and the sections may be easily removed without being broken up into small pieces. Cut the skin of the fruit lengthwise and crosswise so that the skin is divided into quarters. It can very readily be peeled off. Place the peeled fruit in a pitcher or pan of cold water and let it stand in the ice-box for at least two hours. The white membrane will peel from the sections of the fruit very readily and it will be found that the fruit will not break easily. -Mrs. A. F.F.J., Reedsburg, Wis.
