MACARONI RECIPES

MACARONI RECIPES.

Home-made macaroni.
------------------

To four cupfuls of flour, add one egg well beaten, and enough water to make a dough that can be rolled. Roll thin on a breadboard and cut into strips. Dry in the sun. The best arrangement for this purpose is a wooden frame to which a square of cheese-cloth has been tightly tacked, upon which the macaroni may be laid in such a way as not to touch, and afterwards covered with a cheese-cloth to keep off the dust during the drying.

Boiled macaroni.
---------------

Put a larg cup of macaroni into boiling water and cook until tender. When done, drained thoroughly, then add a pint of milk, part cream if it can be afforded, a little salt and one well-beaten egg; stir over the fire until it thickens, and serve hot.

Macaroni with cream sauce.
-------------------------

Cook the macaroni as directed in the proceeding, and serve with a cream sauce prepared by heating a scant pint of rich milk to boiling, in a double boiler. When boiling, add a heaping tablespoonful of flour, rubbed smoothed in a little milk and one fourth teaspoonful of salt. If desired, the sauce may be flavored by steeping in the milk before thickening for ten or fifteen minutes, a slice of onion or a few bits of celery, and then removing with a fork.

Macaroni with tomato sauce.
--------------------------

Drop a cup of macaroni into boiling milk and water, equal parts. Let it boil for an hour, or until perfectly tender. In the meantime prepare the sauce by rubbing a pint of stewed or canned tomatoes through a colander to remove all seeds and fragments. Heat to boiling, thicken with a little flour; a tablespoonful to the pint will be about the requisite proportion. Add salt and if desired, a half cup of very thin sweet cream. Dish the macaroni into individual dishes, and serve with a small quantity of the sauce poured over each dish.

Macaroni baked with granola.
---------------------------

Cook a large cup of macaroni until tender in boiling milk and water. When done, drain and put a layer of the macaroni in the bottom of a pudding dish, and sprinkle over it a scant teaspoonful of granola. Add a second and third layer and sprinkle each with granola; then turn over the whole a custard sauce prepared by mixing together a pint of milk, the well beaten yolks of two eggs or one whole egg, and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt. Care should be taken to arrange the macaroni in layers loosely, so that the sauce will readily permeate the whole. Bake for a few minutes only, until the custard has well set, and serve.

Eggs and macaroni.
-----------------

Cook a cup of macaroni in boiling water. While the macaroni is cooking, boil the yolks of four eggs until mealy. The whole egg may be used if caught so the yolks are mealy in the whites simply jellied, not hardened. When the macaroni is done, drain and put a layer of it arranged loosely in the bottom of a pudding dish. Slice the cooked egg yolks and spread a layer of them over the macaroni. Fill the dish with alternate layers of macaroni and egg, taking care to have the top layer of macaroni. Pour over the whole a cream sauce prepared as follows: Heat one and three fourths cup of rich milk to boiling, add one fourth teaspoonful of salt and one heaping spoonful of flour rubbed smooth in a little cold milk. Cook until thickened, then turn over the macaroni. Sprinkle the top with grated bread crumbs, and brown in a hot oven for eight or ten minutes. Serve hot.

Baby Monitors and Their Role in the Safety of Your Child
   
In the fast paced world we live in today, many obstacles come with juggling family life and work, especially with a new baby in the house. Often times, parents find it difficult to manage their efforts of doing chores while watching the baby.

No one can be at two places at the same time, and it has been one of the major dilemmas of parents who still want to be productive around the house but more importantly want to prioritize their child’s safety. This is the very reason why baby monitors have become very useful to many parents. These gadgets allow parents to monitor the baby’s activities while they are not inside of the nursery or are working at a distance.

What Is a Baby Monitor and How Does It Work?
   
A baby monitor is a gadget set that has a transmitter and receiver, which sends either sound or video (depending on the type) for the parent to be able to supervise the activities of the baby while he or she is away.

There are different types of these monitors –the audio, video or sensory. The audio baby monitor receives and sends sound so that the parent could hear the baby from a distance. The video monitor on the other hand works like a tiny TV by having a camera record the baby’s movements while the parent could watch on a small screen receiver. And the sensory monitor is a movement detector that alarms the parent when it cannot perceive any movement from the child for more than 20 seconds.

How Does It Play A Role In the Safety of the Child?
   
What baby monitors basically do, is allow the parents to know their child’s activities and to watch out for any possible problems from afar, especially if the baby is asleep. Through this, they could at least do their usual work without having to feel worried that their child might not be safe inside the room alone. Many of the hi-tech monitors nowadays, especially the video or even movement sensitive monitors instantly alert the parents when there are problems detected.

Sensory monitors even send alarms whenever it cannot detect movement from the baby for 20 seconds or more. Even the simpler models of these monitors like the audio monitor at least keeps the parents aware if their baby needs them, especially when the child cries. With this technology, parents are given a way to make sure that their baby is safe especially during times when no one is left inside the room to watch the child.

Nowadays, it is really difficult for any parent to be able to be by their child’s side 24/7. But despite such circumstances, it is good to know that technology has managed to make life easier by giving busy moms and dads the option keep an eye on their precious little one even when they aren’t in the same room.
