The Huron Expositor, 1960-06-09, Page 9} FOOD and F1XJN'S Recipes. For the Busy Homemaker "SWEET FINALE Unlike the rest of us, botanists do not regard.the sweet and frag- rant strawberry as a fruit. Evi- dently it is merely an .enlarged growth at the end of the flower stalk of the plant. The true fruits are the dry achenes . . seeds borne on " the strawberry. HappilyPsuch knowledge will do little to rob the berries of their appealing and refreshing flavor. While canned and frozen straw- berries are available the year round, the fresh berries are lower in price as well as superior in flavor. An,!ci since the strawberry season is at its height duffing June died July,now is.the time to en- joy this ush fruit at the peak of its perfection. Top cold breakfast cereals with berries and serve fresh strawberry sundaes or berry. puddings. For a dinner party, shower or tea, plan on making a truly regal strawberry dessert, such as this one for Strawberry chantilly. This scrumptious sweet is a - 'tempting combination of a cake and a pie. It tastes every bit as good as it looks, and looks quite as exotic as the name implies. The •e, chantilly has a pie crust base fill- ed with a "butter -cake batter" Before serving, it is masked with sweetened whipped cream and whole strawberries; Then garnish: - ed with whipped cream rosettes. Strawberry Chantilly Yield—about 8 servings Pie paste 7/s cup once -sifted all-purpose flour or 1 cup once -sifted pastry flour 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/4 teaspoon salt % teaspoon.ground mace 1/3 cup butter or margarine 1/e cup fine granulated sugar 1 egg 1/3 cup milk , 1/2 teaspoon vanilla 1/z pint (1114 cups) whipping cream 3 tablespoons sifted icing sugar Few drops vanilla 1 pint fresh strawberries; wash- ed, hulled and well -drained Preheat oven to 375, degrees F.

Time For Weddings and_ Matrimonial Cake If date squares ever had any Significance connected with mar- riage customs we haven't heard about it, but somewhere along the Iine they picked up the name Matrimonial Cake". This cer- tainly seems to be a fancy name for something so simple to make! It's not too glamorous a title, though, when you consider the wonderful blend of textures and flavours of the butter, rolled oats, brown sugar, dates and other in- gredients in it, Whether you take along large squares of Matrimonial Cake for your first summer picnic, or serve tiny, bite -size pieces at a trousseau tea, one thing is certain—everyone will want a second piece. So, when you make it be sure to tuck it away out of nibbler's sight, if you' want enough left, .for the special occasion! Date Squares (Matrimonial Cake) Prepare Date Filling first.
