'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.

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. ZESTY EGG DIP 4 minced hard-cooked eggs 3 slices cooked bacon, crumbled 1 teaspoon minced onion 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1.,teaspoon prepared mustard 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon cream Mix ingredients.

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".
