NOTES : This book appears to have been produced as a fundraising project
for Mount Sinai Hospital Auxiliary in Toronto, Canada. I don't know when it
was published. I have chosen to use the metric units listed at the right
side of the recipe. Alternatively use the following conversions for the
purpose of this recipe only: 1 L = 4 cups, 500 mL = 2 cups, 30 mL = 2
Tablespoon, 1 mL = 1/4 teaspoon.
