'Turkey Talk' for Fest'
Golden brown, plump and crisp a roast turkey is the center of attention for the Christmas
feast. Turkey is a member of the pheasant family and at today's prices it can be everybody's
pheasant. Turkeys come in sizes to suit all families and nay be bought as halves, parts or
as boneless turkey roll, This year home economists say that the "self-basting" turkey will
be featured in many areas.

Shoppers know that any month
is the time to "think turkey"
but December still seems to be
the traditional time to do so.
Turkey is a popular, economical
form of meat, providing excellent
protein, valuable amounts of iron
and B vitamins and little fat. It
is the "in" meat for the festive
season.
BUYING WHOLE TURKEYS -
Most families buy wl'opte
• turkeys because these birds re
available in sizes to serve 4 or
40. It is economical to buy a
large bird because it provides a
higher proportion of meat to
bone and usually costs less per
pound. Another bonus is the
if "encore" servings in such dishes
as casseroles, sandwiches,
salads and a la king during those
busy days ahead. However,
sometimes a family prefers four
drumsticks so two small turkeys
may be purchased rather than one
large one. These will require a
shorter roasting period.
The Canada Approved stamp
on the metal tag attached to whole
eviscerated birds is your assur-
ance that the product is safe and
wholesome. To receive such a
stamp, the poultry must be exam-
ined by federal veterinary
inspectors in inspected plants.
Whole birds bearing this tag may
then be graded. The grades are
based largely on appearance, and
although most of the turkeys
on the retail market are Canada
Grade A, some Canada Grade B
and Utility birds may also be
available at slightly lower prices.- ▪ These lower grade birds have a
few imperfections such as small
tears, minor discolorations or
pinfeathers or a crooked keel
bone. Only the Utility grade may
be missing one or more parts.
Whole turkeys are wrapped in
transparent packaging materials
and may be frozen ready-to-cook
or chilled ready-to-cook. Some
stores may display commercially
stuffed and frozen turkeys which
have been fast-frozen. These
turkeys must not be allowed to
thaw but be cooked from the
frozen state, according to direct-
ions on the label. It is not recom-
mended, however, that house-
wives stuff birds then freeze them
at home.
A comparative newcomer this
year is the "self-basting" whole
frozen turkey. These turkeys are
110
available under various brand
names and have been injected with
butter or vegetable oil. This
process produces a juicier bird
which does not require basting
and does not dry out during the
roasting period. The prices
-will be higher than the conven-
tional frozen turkey.
BUYING TURKEY PARTS
Some meat counters feature
turkey halves or they may be
cut on request. They may weigh
from 5 to 12 pounds and are
yi
usually frozen. Turkey parts
such as breasts, thighs and legs
are available fresh or frozen.'
These parts may come from
broiler size or heavier birds
and will vary in weights accord-
ingly, They are popular for those
persons who prefer either the
• white or dark meat. Home econ-
omists have developed some
recipes featuring various turkey
parts. For additional informat-
ion on choosing and cooking
turkey, whole or parts, write for
the free folder "Turkey for
Everyone", available from the
Information Division, Canada
Department of Agriculture,
Ottawa.
For some years now the
In many households some of
the food practices are being
changed to suit today's "on-
the-go" society. One such cus-
tom is the conventional pattern of
three meals a day. Frequent
light meals are sometimes prov-
ing more practical for some
family members, and it is im-
portant that these snacks be
nutritious. Savory dips, com-
monly thought Of as party foods,
may be used as convenient snack
foods. When these dips contain
such excellent protein foods as
hard-cooked egg, finely chopped
turkey or cheese they provide
real food value along with fun-
and flavor. Potato chips, crack-
ers or sticks of raw vegetables
may be used for dipping. These
recipes are provided by home
economists to help make dipping
time a satisfying one.

3 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
1 teaspoon minced onion

turkey industry has provided the
consumer with a real con-
venience package, the boneless
turkey roll. It is usually cooked
and frozen, wrapped in various
types of film and will weigh from
3 to 10 pounds. It usually contains
both dark and white meat but a roll
of solid white meat is also avail-
able at delicatessen counters.
Turkey rolls are ideal for buffets
and for salads and sandwich mak-
ing because, being solid meat,
the rolls are easy to slice. They
should be sliced lenthwise or dia-
gonally. They may also be re-
heated and served v3v,t ti ii Itj t ravy
made from stock c icken
bouillon.
ENCORES FOR THE HOLIDAY
TURKEY
That festive turkey which is
carefully selected to grace
the holiday table deserves special
attention from the homemaker.
Probably more than any other
entree, the turkey arrives in the
kitchen earlier and stays longer,
particularly if it is a large frozen
one.
Frozen birds should be kept
frozen until a day or two before
preparation time. It is therefore
important to estimate the thawing
time as accurately as possible,
The hoMe economists of Canada
Department of Agriculture say
that a turkey which is small
enough to go in the refrigerator
will require from 'four to five
hours per pound to thaw there.
It should be left in its original
wrappings but the bag should be
slit and the turkey placed on a
rack over a pan to catch the drip.
A large turkey will thaw more
quickly if it is submerged in its
water-tight bag in cold water,
allowing about one hour per
pound. When the bird is thawed,
it should be treated as fresh and
refrigerated promptly. Store
wrappings should be removed and
the turkey covered loosely with
waxed paper or foil. All poultry,
whether bought in its fresh state
or just thawed, is very perishable
and should be cooked within two
days. If the giblets are enclosed
in the neck or body avity they
should be remove and stored
separately beca *they spoil
rapidly.
As soon s the meal is over,
the stuffing should be removed
and stored separately. The car-
cass should then be refrigerated
or the meat removed from the
bones, covered and stored in the
refrigerator for not more than
four days. If meat is to be kept
for a longer time it should be
frozen. The bones may be placed
in a freezer bag and frozen for
making soup at a later date. Stuf-
fing may be frozen or re-
frigerated and used in a day or
two.
The turkey left over from the
holiday bird has limitless pos-
sibilities for 'encore' meals.
Either of these exciting recipes
supplied by home economists,
may be chosen for entertaining,
"Turkey Noodle Bake" or"Tur-
key Curry".
