HOUSEHOLD HINTS

When boiling fish add a dash of vinegar to the water and the fish will be much whiter and firmer.

Add a teaspoon of baking powder to old potatoes when mashing them and beat briskly. This will make them light and creamy.

To prevent the saucepan containing cabbage or cauliflower from boiling over, add to the water a piece of butter the size of a walnut. This will make the vegetables cook steadily and they will not require watching.
