Instructions: I find this book to be extremely helpful when I dont have an ingredient that I need for a recipe I am working on. I can look up the missing ingredient and it will give me other ingredients that can be used instead of the original one. Here is an example:

cream, light (or half and Half), 1 cup
= 1/2 cup heavy cream plus 1/2 cup milk
= 7/8 cup milk plus 3 tablespoons butter or margarine = 1/2 cup evaporated milk plus 1/2 cup milk

As you can see there are 3 substitutions that can be used in place of 1 cup light cream.
