SOUTHERN CORN CAKE.
|
| Monday, March 23, 2009 |
In the preceding recipe for corn cake, more flour than corn meal is used, but many persons prefer cake of this kind made with more corn meal than flour. Southern corn
cake, which contains more corn meal and less white flour, proves very satisfactory to such persons. Therefore, which of these recipes should be used depends on the taste of those who are to eat the cake.
SOUTHERN CORN CAKE
(Sufficient for One Medium-Sized Loaf)
1 c. corn meal
1/2 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 c. sugar
3/4 c. milk
1 egg
2 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift together the corn meal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Add to them the milk and well-beaten egg, and stir in the melted fat. Pour into a well-greased loaf pan, and bake in a moderate oven for about 30 minutes.
58. MOLASSES CORN CAKE.
--Molasses corn cake, just as its name indicates, is corn cake containing molasses. To those who find the taste of molasses agreeable, this recipe will appeal. Others
not so fond of molasses will, without doubt, prefer the plain corn cake. Besides adding flavour, the molasses in this recipe adds food value to the product.
MOLASSES CORN CAKE
(Sufficient for One Medium-Sized Loaf)
1 c. corn meal
3/4 c. flour
3-1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
3/4 c. milk
1/4 c. molasses
1 egg
2 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift the corn meal, flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk, molasses, and well-beaten egg and stir in the melted fat. Pour into a well-greased loaf pan, and bake in a moderate oven for about 30 minutes. |

CORN-CAKE RECIPES
|
|
CORN CAKE.
--Corn cakes were among the first breads made of cereal foods in America, being at first often made of only corn meal, water, and salt. These cakes of corn meal were prepared and
carried on long journeys made by people when there were no means of rapid transportation. The cakes did not spoil, were not bulky, and contained a great deal of nutriment, so they made a convenient kind of food for such purposes and were called journey cakes.
From this term came the name Johnny cake,which is often applied to cake of this kind. The combining of flour, eggs, shortening, and sugar makes a cake that does not resemble the original very much, but in many localities such cake is still called Johnny cake. The proportion of corn meal to flour that is used determines to a large extent the consistency of the cake; the greater the quantity of corn meal, the more the cake will crumble and break
into pieces. The addition of white flour makes the particles of corn meal adhere, so that most persons consider that white flour improves the consistency.
CORN CAKE
(Sufficient for One Medium-Sized Loaf)
3/4 c. yellow corn meal
1-1/4 c. flour
1/4 c. sugar
3/4 tsp. salt
4 tsp. baking powder
1 c. milk
1 egg
2 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift the corn meal, flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. Add the milk and well-beaten egg, and then stir in the melted fat. Pour into a well-greased loaf pan and bake in a hot oven for about 30 minutes. |

RICE MUFFINS.
|
|
Rice may be combined with white flour in the making of muffins if variety is
desired. As rice used for this purpose is added hot, it may be cooked either purposely for the muffins or for something else and only part used for the muffins. Cereals other than rice may be used in exactly the same quantity and in the same way in making muffins.
RICE MUFFINS
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
2-1/4 c. flour
5 tsp. baking powder
2 Tb. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1-1/4 c. milk
1 egg
3/4 c. hot, cooked rice
2 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt, and to these add half of the milk and the egg, well beaten. Mix the remaining half of the milk with the rice and add it to the mixture. Stir in the melted fat last. Fill well-greased muffin pans two-thirds full, and bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes.
55. BRAN MUFFINS.
--The particular value of bran muffins lies in the laxative quality that they introduce into the diet. In addition, they will be found to be very tasty and superior to many other kinds
of muffins. Bran for such purposes as this may be bought in packages, in the same way as many cereals.
BRAN MUFFINS
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
1-1/2 c. white flour
1/2 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
2 c. bran
1-1/4 c. milk
1/2 c. molasses
1 egg
Mix and sift the flour, soda, baking powder, and salt. Then add the bran, the milk, the molasses, and the well-beaten egg. Fill well-greased muffin pans about two-thirds full, and bake in a moderate oven for about 25 minutes. |

GRAHAM MUFFINS.
|
|
A pleasing variety in the way of muffins is produced by using part graham flour, but whole-wheat flour may be substituted for the graham flour in case it is preferred. Sour
milk is used in the recipe here given, but if there is no sour milk in supply, sweet milk and baking powder may be used instead, with merely the correct proportion of soda for the molasses.
If the taste of molasses is undesirable, liquid, which may be either sweet or sour milk, may be substituted for it. It is an excellent plan to be able to substitute one thing for another in recipes of this kind, and this may be done if the materials are used in correct proportion.
GRAHAM MUFFINS
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
1-1/4 c. graham flour
1 c. white flour
3/4 tsp. soda
1 tsp. salt
1 c. sour milk
1/3 c. molasses
1 egg
2 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift the graham and the white flour, the soda, and the salt. Put the bran that sifts out back into the mixture. Add the milk, molasses, and well-beaten egg to the dry ingredients, and then stir in the melted fat. Fill well-greased muffin pans two-thirds full and bake in a moderate oven for about 20 minutes. |

DATE MUFFINS.
|
|
The recipe given for blueberry muffins may be used for date muffins by substituting dates for blueberries. To prepare the dates, wash them in warm water, rinse them in cold water, and then dry them between towels. Cut them lengthwise along the seed with a sharp knife, remove the seed, and then cut each date into three or four pieces.
52. CORN-MEAL MUFFINS.
--To many persons, corn-meal muffins, an illustration of which is shown in Fig. 10, are more agreeable than plain white-flour muffins. Corn meal gives to muffins an attractive flavour and appearance and increases their food value slightly; but perhaps its chief value lies in the variety that results from its use.
CORN-MEAL MUFFINS
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
1/2 c. corn meal
1 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
2 Tb. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 c. milk
1 egg
2 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift the corn meal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Add to these the milk and the well-beaten egg, and stir in the melted fat. Fill well-greased muffin pans two-thirds full, and bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes. |

BLUEBERRY MUFFINS.
|
|
Muffins containing blueberries can be made successfully only in blueberry season, but other fruit, as, for example, dates, may be used in place of the blueberries.
Cranberries are often used in muffins, but to many persons they are not agreeable because of the excessive amount of acid they contain.
BLUEBERRY MUFFINS
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
3 Tb. fat
1/3 c. sugar
1 egg
1 c. milk
2-1/4 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
4 tsp. baking powder
1 c. fresh blueberries
Cream the fat, and add the sugar gradually. Then stir in the beaten egg and milk. Reserve 1/4 cupful of flour, and mix the remainder with the salt and the baking powder. Stir the dry ingredients into the first mixture. Next, mix the 1/4 cupful of flour with the berries and fold them into the batter. Fill well-greased muffin pans about two-thirds full of the batter, and bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes. |

MUFFIN RECIPES
|
|
Muffins are examples of thick batters with variations. This form of hot bread, an illustration of which is shown in Fig. 9, may be baked in a pan like that shown at
h, Fig. 1, or in individual tins. Just as other forms of hot breads assist the housewife in making changes or additions to meals, so do muffins, as they are usually relished by nearly every one.
49. PLAIN MUFFINS.
--Perhaps the simplest form of muffin is the plain, or one-egg, muffin, which
is illustrated in Fig. 9 and made according to the accompanying recipe. To a plain-muffin recipe, however, may be added any kind of fruit, nuts, or other ingredients to give variety of flavour. Likewise, it may be made richer and sweeter and then steamed or baked to be served with a sauce for dessert. If it is made still richer and sweeter, the result is a simple cake mixture. Any given muffin recipe in which sweet milk is used may be made with sour milk by using soda instead of baking powder.
PLAIN MUFFINS
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
2 c. flour
2 Tb. sugar
1 tsp. salt
4 tsp. baking powder
1 c. milk
1 egg
2 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder, and to these add the milk and beaten egg. Then stir in the melted fat. Fill well-greased muffin pans about two-thirds full of the mixture and bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes. |

. RICE WAFFLES.
|
|
Rice waffles offer an excellent means of utilizing left-over rice. Such waffles
are prepared in about the same way as the waffles just mentioned. In working the cooked rice into the dry ingredients, use should be made of a light motion that will not crush the grains, but will separate them from one another. Left-over cereals other than rice may also be used in this way.
RICE WAFFLES
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
1-3/4 c. flour
2 Tb. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 c. cooked rice
1-1/2 c. milk
1 egg
1 Tb. melted fat
Mix and sift the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, and then work the rice into the dry ingredients. Add the milk and the well-beaten yolk of egg. Stir in the melted fat. Beat the egg white stiff, and fold it into the batter. Bake as previously directed. |

WAFFLE RECIPES
|
|
PROCEDURE IN BAKING WAFFLES.
--The procedure in making waffles is very similar to that in making griddle cakes. While the waffle mixture is being prepared, heat the waffle iron. Then grease it thoroughly on both sides with a rind of salt pork or a cloth pad dipped in fat, being careful that there is no excess fat, as it will run out when the iron is turned over.
With the iron properly greased and sufficiently hot, place several spoonfuls of the batter in the center and close the iron. By so doing, the batter will be pressed out to cover the entire surface. In pouring the batter, do not cover the entire surface of the iron with batter nor place any near the outside edge, for it is liable to run out when the iron is closed. In case this happens, be sure to put in less batter the next time.
Allow the waffle to brown on the side near the fire and then turn the iron, so as to brown the other side. When the waffle is sufficiently brown, remove it; then grease the iron and repeat the process.
46. WAFFLES.
--The form of hot bread known as waffles, which are illustrated in Fig. 8, offers the
housewife an excellent opportunity to add variety to meals. Practically no one dislikes waffles, and they are especially appetising when sprinkled with powdered sugar or served with sirup. They are often served with chicken or other gravy. |

44. BUCKWHEAT CAKES.
|
|
-Buckwheat flour is used for griddle cakes more than for any other purpose. When used in this way it has a very typical flavor that most people find very agreeable. Many prepared buckwheat flours, to which have been added the quantity of leavening agent necessary to raise
the mixture, are on the market for the convenience of those who do not desire to prepare the mixture at home.
As a rule, these contain a combination of buckwheat and wheat flour. To make cakes from these
flours, add the required amount of liquid, either milk or water, and a little sugar, if necessary, and then proceed to bake them on a griddle. While there is no objection to the use of such flours if they are found agreeable, it is more expensive to use them than to make up the buckwheat mixture at home. A recipe for buckwheat cakes that proves very satisfactory is the following:
BUCKWHEAT CAKES
(Sufficient to Serve Six)
2 c. scalded milk
1/2 c. fine bread crumbs
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 yeast cake
3/4 c. lukewarm water
1-1/2 c. buckwheat flour
1/2 c. white flour
1 Tb. molasses
1/4 tsp. soda
Pour the scalded milk over the bread crumbs and add the salt. Dissolve the yeast cake in 1/2 cupful of the lukewarm water and add this to the bread crumbs and milk. Stir in the buckwheat and the white flour, and let the mixture rise overnight. In the morning, stir it well and add the molasses, the soda, and 1/4 cupful of lukewarm water. Bake on a hot griddle.
If cakes are to be baked the next day, retain 1/2 cupful of the batter, to which may be added flour, milk, salt, and molasses. By doing this each day, a starter may be had for a long period of time. If a strong buckwheat flavor is desired, use all buckwheat flour, but if only a slight buckwheat flavor is desired, make the proportion of wheat flour greater and that of the buckwheat smaller. |

Would a Fat Burner With the Special K Diet Work Better Along With Exercise? By Faviano Torres
|
|
The basic principle of all diets for weight is to burn more calories than what is taken by the body. In this way, losing weight is more assured. This is what the Special K diet is. Promises that if the substitute 2 meals a day with a minimum cereal or protein bars, it is likely that this person lost 2.7 pounds in two weeks.
In fact, if the person you want to lose weight begins to make adjustments in your diet that is more conducive to good health and lower cholesterol and calories, its objective is not very difficult to achieve. For example, replacement of eggs, biscuits and bacon (800 calories total) with a low-calorie foods like fruits and vegetables or beans (200 calories) and can be a big step.
For any Special K diet, replacing a meal with cereals or protein bars can be boring and not very nutritious. Our body needs other nutrients from cereal or protein bars. In addition, our body is designed to enjoy the variety that even in our palate. Most people who are not accustomed to eating snacks, or the same type of food every day had left because they were not able to follow the restrictions. These restrictions are:
1. Low-calorie breakfast cereal
2. Low calorie lunch of protein bars
3. Healthy snack in the form of fruits and vegetables
4. Normal healthy dinner
Taking advantage of the Special K diet than losing weight are:
1. Adequate intake of calcium for people who use their milk for cereals
2. Regular eating breakfast keeps your body fit and healthy
3. Reduced chances of heart problems incurred due to lower intake of calories and cholesterol.
Furthermore, the Special K diet poses some drawbacks, namely:
1. You will have the tendency to get bored with cereals.
2. To maintain good health, you should eat cereals supplemented with fruits and vegetables.
3. You probably will not develop good eating habits.
4. Is likely to regain the lost pounds after the resumption of their regular diet.

Nutrition Information of Rice Cereal By Darren W Chow
|
| Tuesday, March 3, 2009 |
Your baby's health is perhaps the most important thing in the world. For this reason, make sure you feed your baby the best food you can get. A strong immune system in a healthy baby will help to resist many common illnesses such as flu, cold, fever, etc. When the baby is sick, parents are the most affected. All parents worry about their children when they are sick.
In addition, all babies cry when they are sick, whether it's day or night. And parents can find almost impossible to get any proper rest. So the only way to avoid this is to keep the baby healthy.
One way to do it to feed the baby cereals rice. Grains, rice contains many vitamins and nutrients that babies need. These include iron, zinc and other vitamins. Normally, rice cereals come pre-cooked packets. This means that all you need do is add hot water, and cereal is ready to be eaten.
Of course, how to serve the rice grains will depend on the age of the baby. If this is your first serving, you should begin to add a little cereal in milk. The objective here is to allow the baby to get used to a small grain of rice. You can increase the amount of rice cereal slowly as the baby grows.
At the top of the basic nutrients and vitamins, manufacturers of cereals, rice also develop correction formulas that can help promote development. For example, DHA is often included in baby cereals and can help with brain development.
Here is a more specific list of common nutrients and vitamins that contain rice cereal.
- Vitamin A
- Vitamin C
- Vitamin E
- Vitamin B6
- Vitamin B12
- Iron
- Zinc
- Niacin
- Thiamin
- Riboflavin
- And much more!
Another big benefit is that rice cereal contains fiber, which helps to remove the faeces. Constipation is a very common problem for infants because they are small and weak digestive systems. In fact, it may be painful for babies. The stomach tends to be inflated when there are digestive problems. With a steady diet of rice, grains, fiber really helps with the digestive process.
As a baby grows, the body becomes stronger. It's just a matter of time before solid food the body needs to help sustain growth. Rice cereal offers a smooth transition for the baby is going to take liquid food to solid food. Simply cut a small amount of liquid added to cereals in the diet of each.
Cereals rice are available in shops or supermarkets. They come in tins or refillable containers. Can be repacked into smaller packages so that you can bring with you the cereal while you are traveling.
When feeding time is near, simply add water to grain. It can be hot water, milk or juice. Over time, your baby grow strong and healthy. All thanks to the nutrients and vitamins provided by the global cereal rice.

Breakfast Cereals-2007's Best By Gabe Mirkin, M.D.
|
|
Healthiest breakfast cereal is whole grain. If you're trying to lose weight, control cholesterol or diabetes, or simply need a lot of energy, your best bet is a hot cooked cereal grains such as oats or barley, rice or wheat grains boiled and served as a meal oats. Flavored with raisins or other dried fruit, cinnamon, and maybe a handful of nuts like pine nuts.
If you prefer cold cereal, it is necessary to check the ingredient list carefully. The first ingredient should be whole grain. Then search the list and see if the words "partially hydrogenated", put the box back on the shelf. We recommend that you avoid foods with partially hydrogenated oils (or "trans fat") and that still appears in many cereals (see list below).
Once you've eliminated all the brands made with refined grains or partially hydrogenated oils, check for added sugars (who want little or nothing) and fiber (you want a lot.)
Raisins or other dried fruit are added a large amount of grams of sugar listed on the nutrition panel, which are not distinguishable from sugar, so it can only estimate the amounts.
The fiber content listed on the nutrition label can be confusing, since it is based on size, very light and cereals (such as puffed wheat) show little fiber per serving, but an acceptable amount to adjust the weight. Made from cereals, bran (the outer covering removed from whole grains) have a higher fiber content of cereals made of whole grains (which have the germ and the starch grains, and fiber), but may be difficult to digest.
2007 Update: I am happy to note that partially hydrogenated oils (trans fat) are drawn from many cereals. The former includes 56 brands with PAHO, the new list only has 13! Most of the popular General Mills, Post and Quaker cereal brands no longer have. Kelloggs is the creator of one of the major cereals has not yet been withdrawn from many of its main products, we hope to respond to consumer pressure soon.
Is it really the whole grain? Manufacturers have also responded to the call for more whole grains in our diet, so it is a lot more options in response to my recommendation of "whole grains as the first ingredient." However, many who claim to be "whole grain" still include refined grains. You may have to do some detective work to see what you're getting. An ingredient of whole grain cereal (ie, shredded wheat, puffed wheat, oatmeal) are sure bets. If the ground corn, corn flour, wheat flour or rice
