Extracts From A Barossa Heritage

HELPFUL HOUSEHOLD HINTS:ts

Frying - if a little salt is sprinkled in the frypan before the fat is put in, this will prevent splashing.

Glass Bottles - to clean,, break egg shells into pieces and put a small quantity into a discoloured bottle or decanter. Add a little water and shake well and the marks will disappear.

Gardening Gloves - to protect your nails while gardening, put a small piece of cotton wool in the tips of the fingers and thumbs.

Marble - to remove smoke stains on marble, make a paste of whiting, washing soda and chalk. Rub it well in to the stains and allow to dry. Rinse well with cold water.

Over-salted Soup - when soup or stew has had too much salt added, a single potato cooked in them will absorb the surplus salt. It must be removed before it crumbles.
