HOW TO CARE FOR STAINLESS COOKWARE
Stainless Cookware will retain original gleaming beauty through a lifetime of service. Just follow these simple directions:
BEFORE USING NEW UTENSILS—Wash them thoroughly both inside and out in hot suds. Use either soap or detergent. This removes the thin coating of oil which clings to the utensil in the manufacturing process. Rinse in clear hot water and dry thoroughly with a clean towel. Now the utensil is ready for use.
HEAT CONTROL—Medium to Low Heat should be used for all cooking. Start vegetables over medium heat. When the water comes to a boiling, turn to low heat to keep water boiling gently. Brown meat slowly over medium to low heat.
EASY CLEANING—Rinse the utensil with warm water immediately after each use. Food particles which do not yield to rinsing usually may be removed with a rubber food scraper.
FIRST AID—If food has been burned on or allowed to dry on the utensil, fill it with cold water. Bring the water to boiling. Remove the utensil from the heat and allow the water to cool to lukewarm. Wash in hot suds. If a stain remains, scour with fine steel wool. If necessary, polish with stainless steel cleaner.
DO NOT OVERHEAT—Overheating may sometimes cause discoloration on Stainless Steel Cookware. These stains are easily removed with any good stainless steel cleaner.
AVOID SUDDEN TEMPERATURE CHANGES—Sudden temperature changes and overheating should be avoided. DO NOT put cold water in a hot utensil. DO NOT set a hot utensil on a cold surface, such as the sink.

A really big step towards economical food buying is watching newspaper advertisements. Each week the big super-markets and chain stores run all of their weekly specials, and savings will add up fast if you plan as many of your menus as possible around these featured items.
Compare Prices
Compare them at home in your newspaper, when you are deciding the best place to shop and save. And compare the difference in price among fresh, frozen, and canned foods. For example; food dollars will go a lot further (yet meals will not suffer), if you serve frozen vegetables, or fresh vegetables in season, on-the-plate ... and use less-expensive canned vegetables in stews, casseroles, etc.
Read Labels Carefully
Look for the word “enriched” on white bread and flour labels. This means that the “B” vitamins and Iron, lost in the milling process, have been replaced. Also check the
