General cooking tips

Oven Tips : Stagger pans and baking sheets on upper and lower racks to improve airflow, and don't cover racks with foil. Food cooks more quickly and efficiently when heat circulates freely.


Oven Tips : Use glass or ceramic pans in ovens. You can turn down the temperature about 25° and foods will cook just as quickly.


Buy Local Food : See if you can find out where your food has gone before it gets to your plate. You may be suprised by the results. Often it will make financial sense for companies to transport food enourmous distances by planes, boats and lorries. This dosn't take the environmental cost into account (which of course is likely to lead to greatly increased economic costs in the long term).

Ingredients And Procedures

2 oz Unsweetened chocolate

2 c Sugar

2/3 c Evaporated milk

-or thin cream 2 T Corn syrup

3 T Butter

1 ts Vanilla

Grease an 8x8" square pan with butter. Grease a heavy-bottomed saucepan with butter. Grate the chocolate into it and add the sugar, milk and corn syrup. Stir over low heat until chocolate melts and sugar dissolves. Increase the heat to medium-high and boil the mixture until it reaches soft ball stage (240F.). Stir just enough to prevent scorching., remove from the heat and add the butter. Cool to lukewarm (110F.) without stirring. Add the vanilla. Beat until the candy loses its gloss and becomes thick enough to hold its shape. This will take 10 minutes if you use a heavy electric mixer and longer by hand. Immediately pat into the prepared pan. Cool and cut into squares. Yields 36 pieces.
