PAGE SIA THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1929" ~ Women's Awe \ ' SUCCESSFUL CAKE MAKING For. the bride or the wife, who is setting out for the first time in her own home, and even for the business girl, who is cooking her own meals in her apartment, the New York State College of Home Economics has published in a re- cent edition of the Women's Home Companion a list of necessary equipment for successful cakes making, They are: teaspoons and tablespoons of standard measure, which means three teaspoons equal one tablespoon, a standard measur ing cup with the quarters and thirds indicated; wooden spoon for stir. ring, as t is less noisey than a metal. one and does not darken the batter; a heavy earthen bow! with a round- ed bottom for mixing the cake, for it stays in place better than a light- er one; a wheel heater for egg yolks, and possibly for whole eggs and mixing some batters; a wire whisk for beating egg whites, for folding the beaten whites into some mixtures and possibly for beating batters smooth; and the pans for baking, which may be of tin, alum» inum. enamel, oven glass or Rus- sion iron, The college women give warning that cakes baked in the thicker pans require a higher tem- perature at the beginning of the baking and a lower temperature at the end than those that are baked in the thinner pans, The question of the length o1 time to beat cake batter has puzzled many women and has, proved the cause of the downfall of many of the "first" cakes, According to the Companion Miss Belle Lowe, agso- ciate professor of Home Economics at the Iowa State College, has the answer for plain cake. She maae the batter from a standard recipe and divided f{t into six portions. These were beaten 50, 100, 150, 300, 400 and 1000 strokes, respec- tively, Each sample was baked and then tested for appearance, texture and volume, The cake that received 160 strokes was hest and the one receiving the 1000 strokes the poor est. The time to bake a sponge cake depends upon the ingredients in- volved, The recipe usually states the time it takes in the oven, whi-h may be from 30 to 60 minutes. Div- ide the baking time for cake Into quarters; (1) During the first quarter the cake should begin to rise, and at the 'end of that tim» the portion nearest the tin shonid be higher than the rest, znd bubh- les should show over the ton. (2) During the second quarter tha ris- ing should continue, and th~ cake should appear slightly baked next to the tin, with bubbles still show- | | The Women's Corner For Anything of Interest to ie Hoan a hE hooper Interests in ing through the centre, (3) During the third quarter the baked ap- pearance should extend over the top and browning should take place (4) During the last quarter tne cake should finish browhing and shrink from the tin. Opening tue oven door and moving the cake gently is safe after the first half of baking time is over, The most common baking fault in cake making is too hot an oven, In too hot an oven tho cake bakes and sometimes burns next the pan and over top, before the rising is complete. The oven temperature varies with the nature of the batter and the form in which it is baked. A very rich cake requires a slower oven than a simple cake does, A cake containing molasses tends to burn easily, and therefore needs to be baked more slowly than a sim- ilar mixture made with white sugar. A loaf should be baked at a lower temperature than a thin sh¢et or individual cakes. Sponge and angel cakes require a very moderate oven, Pastry flour, because of its large proportion of starch, makes lighter and more tender cake than does bread flour, For the very best re- sults the flours milled espe~ially for cake making, from wheat high in starch, are to be recommended. SPONGE CAKE 4 eggs, 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind, 3-4 cup bread flour, 1 1-2 teaspoons baking pow- der, 1-2 teaspoon salt, Beat yolks of eggs thoroughly, add sugar graduslly, beating well after each addition, Add lemon juice and rind and beat again, Mi¥ flour. baking-powder and salt ana sift together twice. Sift into em) mixture and beat. Fold in egg whites which have been besten nn- til stiff. Bake. Time in oven, 55 minutes, T:mperature 325 degrees CHOCOLATE SPONGE CAKE 2 cups brown sugar, 1 1-2 cups butter, 1 square chocolate, 1-2 cup sour milk, 2 egg yolks, 1 teaspoon vaniila, 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon soda, 1 cup boiling water, 2 egg whites, Cream sugar with melted hutter and chocolate, add milk and beat thoroughly. Add egg yolks, vanil'a, flour mixed with soda and boilin~ water. Reserve a snrall portion of flour to add after the boiling water. then beat unti! very smooth and light. Lastly, add beaten whites, Bake in 2 moderate oven. This makes a larre loaf cake, Time fin oven, 40 minutes, Temperature, 200 degrees.

In this number she was ably accompanied by Jessie McAlpine Dempster, For the remainder of her program she was accompanied by her teacher, Dr, Luigi von Kunits, "Her playing of the Vieuxtemps Concerto in F, sharp (No, 2) was was also particularly meritorious, while her final number, Sarasate's "Zigeunerweisen,"" was well receiv. "For the third part of her pro- gram she played a group of miscel- lananeous numbers, and it was very fitting that among these one of the most pleasing was "Album Leaf," by Dr. von Kunits, Elgar's 'La Capricieuse," Glazounow's "Medi- tation," the Schubert-Friedberg "Rondo," 'On Wings of Spring" (Mendelssohn-Achron), and "The Flight of the Bumble Bee' (Rim- sky-Korsakov-Hartmann) were also in the gronp, "Toronto may well take pride in Bettina Vegara, She has had her entire training here under Dr, von Yunits, and she has anpeared with mered gnecess in New York. as well as many places in Canada."
