Over the years on the mission field, especially when certain things are scarce, I have had to make
many substitutions, mostly by trial and error! I find a way to use ALL of my flops, even if I alone eat
them. Consequently, nothing is wasted at our house. If you decide to try any of these, please
remember that with the substitution, your recipe will not have the exact results as it does with all the
usual ingredients.
Recipe Substitutions:
1 tsp Baking Powder = 1 tsp Cream of Tartar + 1/2 tsp Soda, measure by tsp
1 oz of Chocolate = 3 tbsp Cocoa + 1 tbsp Butter, Margarine, Oil, or Shortening

1 c Cake Flour = 7/8 c Flour + 2 tbsp Cornstarch
1 c Whole Wheat Flour = 2/3 c White Flour + 1/3 c each of Wheat Bran and Wheat Germ
1 c Sour Milk = 1 c Milk + 1 tbsp Vinegar or 1 3/4 t Cream of Tartar = 1 c Plain Yogurt
1 c Evaporated Milk = 1 c Water + 2/3 c Powdered Milk or Creamer = 1 c Half and Half
1 c Honey = 1 1/4 c Sugar + 1/2 c any Liquid = 1 c Molasses
1 c Karo Syrup = 1 c Sugar + 1/4 c Water
1 c Brown Sugar = 1 c Sugar + 3 tbsp Molasses
1 tbsp Cornstarch = 2 tbsp Flour
1 tsp Dry Mustard = 1 tbsp Prepared Mustard

Brazilian Beans
1-2 chopped tomatoes
1 chopped green pepper
1 chopped med onion
2 tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp freshly chopped cilantro
Put beans in Dutch Oven or large pot
with lid. Rinse well twice, then add
enough water to cover by 2". Soak
beans overnight.
In the morning, boil the beans until soft, adding water as
necessary. Be careful to watch the pot until it begins to boil so it
does not boil over! Once boiling, turn down the flame or burner
and either simmer without the lid or with the lid half on.
Cook sausage in a little oil until browned. Add tomatoes, onion,
and bell pepper and sauté briefly. Add this mixture to the beans
in the pot. Salt to taste. Add the cilantro just before serving.
Serve over rice. Makes 10 servings.
