Summer cooking simplified
Advertiser

  • For easier summer potato salad preparation, fresh whole redskin and russet potatoes are both available in 1 1/2 pound microwaveable bags in the produce section of supermarkets.  In 8 minutes you have salad-ready potatoes.
  • Iva Mae Rider of Ona has her Blackberry Jam Cake recipe in the July/August issue of Cooking with Paula Deen magazine, currently on newsstands.  It's paired with a Blackberry Sauce for drizzling over the cake slices.
  • Pillsbury has new products in its refrigerated dough line. Every cook who has ever had to  "press perforations to seal" as in the old crescent roll dough will love the new recipe-ready, all one piece, flat sheets of crescent dough "Crescent Creations."  Pillsbury also has introduced a thin pizza crust in the refrigerated can.
  • Rhodes offers frozen whole wheat bread dough (shaped into loaf-like logs like the white dough) for those who want a healthier grain bread. It's great for the old standby recipes that call for frozen bread dough (sausage bread, broccoli bread) and as crust for homemade pizza.
  • Eggbeaters brand liquid egg substitute now has a little yolk added for extra flavor and richness.  Container is marked "Yolk Added."
  • Honeysuckle White has introduced Italian and Mexican-flavored ground turkey (not a sausage). Wal-Mart carries that brand locally.
