Recipe: Sweet Potato Chili - I Love Vegan

Here’s a handy list of cooking and baking tips from the 1950s and 1960s that I’ve collected from a variety of vintage clippings. Each of the tips are from magazine articles or newspaper advice columns containing helpful ideas sent in from women sharing their tips with each other. I consider these tips as timeless wisdom, they were our mothers and grandmothers–and it’s hard to find someone with better tips than they have, these women knew how to work a kitchen! I’ve also included more tips and information found on Tipnut where there was more expanded info or helpful goodies on the topic. When boiling milk, first stir in a pinch of baking soda.
