iladiola’s Baking Recipe of the Month
Mrs. Perry's Snow Biscuits
(A simple recipe for hot yeast bread when time is short)
1 cup warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
VA teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons melted shortening
1 package active dry yeast
About 3 cups sifted GLADIOLA
Special Hard Wheat Flour
Put warm water in mixing bowl; add the sugar, salt and shortening, then the yeast,
stirring until dissolved. Add GLADIOLA Special Hard Wheat Flour to make a
soft dough. Turn onto a lightly floured board and knead for 5 minutes. Let rest
for 8 to 10 minutes. Roll out ^ inch thick, cut with a biscuit cutter. Place in a
lightly greased shallow pan, and pierce each biscuit four or five times with the tines
of a table fork. Cover and let rise 20 to 30 minutes. Bake in a hot oven (425 degrees)
15 to 18 minutes or until browned. Makes 24 2-inch biscuits.
(Clip this recipe and paste on file card),
Gladiola Hard Wheat Flour
a ‘must’ for yeast dough,
says Mrs. Alvin Perry
Delicate, fluffy "snow biscuits,” so simple
to make they’re the perfect answer when
you want to serve hot yeast bread on short
notice, have brought a special Gladiola
Flour award of $100 to Mrs. Alvin C. Perry,
Blue Ridge Road, Hamilton, Texas.
Mrs. Perry is donating half the m6ney to
the Blue Ridge Baptist Church for use in
the Sunday School, where she taught for
several years, and to further the work of
the Baptist Training Union.
Regular Cash Prizes
The special award is a prelude to regular cash
prizes beginning next month in Gladiola’s
Baking-Recipe-of-the-Month contest, now open
to all homemakers in this area. The complete
recipe for "quickie” snow biscuits is printed
below, in file card size, for Glad Times readers.
A long-time user of Gladiola Special Hard
Wheat Flour, Mrs.' Perry has tried other
flours when Gladiola was not available. "It’s
always a disappointment,” she says. "It’s like
trying to make orange juice with apples. All-
purpose flour was never intended for yeast
breads.”
'Smooth as Silk’
Mrs. Perry is passing along her baking know-
how to her daughter, now in high school. First
lesson: how to recognize good dough by its
"feel” in your hands.
"Perfect yeast dough is smooth as silk , and
so elastic it springs
back 'alive’ when
youpokeit. That’s
the dough you al-
ways get with
Gladiola Hard
Wheat Flour. But
when dough is
sticky and limp,
with no strength
or snaptoit,you’re
off to a bad start.
It won’t rise prop-
erly, it’ll have
'tunnels’ and
'scars,’ and it just
can’t hold all that
good yeast GLADIOLA SPECIAL
flavor.” HARD WHEAT FLOUR
Contest a'Good Thing*
Gladiola’s Baking-Recipe-of-the-Month con-
test, says Mrs. Perry, is "bound to be. a good
thing” for any woman who now- uses all-
purpose flour for light bread, rolls and other
yeast breads. "She’s going to try Gladiola Hard
Wheat Flour, Eind from then on it’ll be a must.”
Rules of the contest, which pays $200 in
cash prizes every month, appear in other
columns of Glad Times.
