Cranberries Go With Christmas Frozen Vegetables Provide Short cut Looking for a short cut to meal preparation? Frozen vege- tables may be one answer. They • are all ready to pop into a small amount of boiling salted water. The pot should be covered and the heat lowered when the Water returns to boiling‘ wise to remember that the ieget- ables have been partially cooked during blanching. They therefore • require a very short cooking, time, as stated on the package. Carefully cooked vegetables are colorful, flavorful, nutritious and appealing. The grades of - frozen vegetables commonly available are Canada Fancy and Canada Choice. These vegetables should be of good color, uniform in size, and reasonably free of ice crys- tals. The latter factor is dh- termined by the handling and storage conditions between pro- cessing and cooking. Ideally all frozen foods should be kept at 0 degrees F or lower. Fluctua- ting temperatures and careless handling either in the store or at home will cause icing. Most commercially frozen vegetables are available in two pound bags, enough for 10 ser- vings. These are usually more economical per serving, than the smaller packages. Once the required amount of vegetables is removed at cooking time the bag should be reclosed tightly and returned to the freezer immediately. Frozen vegetables are also packed in one standard size package or carton._ The net weight is stated on the packages and may read 14, 12, 11 or 10 ounces. Because one size of package is used for all vegetables, and because the size and shape of the various veget- ables differ, hence the different weights to fill the packages. packages of peas, whole kernel corn, lima beans, spinach and leafy greens (whole or chopped) contain a net weight of 12ounces; squash cooked or uncooked, 14 ounces; mixed vegetables (3 or more kinds together), peas and carrots together and sliced or diced carrots, 11 ounces; aspar- agus (tips oechopped), broccoli (spears or chopped), Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, green and wax beans (cut or "French style") 10 ounces. These packages provide 3 or 4 servings. Frozen vegetables with butter ,,or in sauce are packed into TaelluffMsealebr bags and V4getkbles are boiled in these bags. There are more expensive, understandably, and the home- maker must decide if the con- venience outweighs the cost. iI Home economists have tried other ways of cooking frozen vegetables than the usual boiling water method. Frozen peas, beans and corn will have more flavor if cooked by one of the following methods: ' 1) For 3 or 4 servings ,melt 2 tablespoons butter , in top of double-boiler.' Add vegetables Sprinkle with salt, cover and cook over• boiling' water until tender. About 20 minutes is sufficient. 2) Place 3 or 4 servings of vegetables in greased casser- ole, sprinkle with salt and dot with 2 tablespoons butter. Cover and bake at 325 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes. Frozen broccoli, and asparagus, cooked by the same methods as above, lost color due to the length of the cooking time. Frozen Brussels sprouts 'were not successful as more steam is necessary to tenderize them. ' A NOV.20 ee in s Minced Beef Makes Good Meatballs one has only to look at the shopping carts in supermarkets to know that minced beef is taken home by many families each week. Most will be destined for hamburgers, Meat loaves, and lasagnas. Minced beef may come from a variety Of loeations on the carcass and is named accord- ingly e.g. minced chuck, minced round steak.. If the minced beef is from trimmings and such cuts as shank, flank, neck, etc. It is called "hamburg". If the beef used is represented as being "lean" it Must contain not more than 15 per cent fat. On the other hand hamburg must not contain more than 30 per cent fat. Some fat is necessary for flavor' and,, to prevent the meat from drying during cooking. on the •other hand, the additional fat cooks out and represents a loss. So one pound of lean minced beef provides larger servings of edible meat than one pound haat- burg.. Therefore as in all cuts of meat, the cost per serving should be considered rather than the cost per pound. Meat in minced form is highly perishable and should be used within a day or two, or frozen. The intense cherry red coloring on the surface is caused by oxygen in the air. Sometimes the interior of a package is much darker in color because it has not been exposed to air. Home economists provide their melt% for meat balls as well as two unusual sauces, one using curry powder and the other ginger. The meat balls are browned' in fat then finished cooking in .a sauce. by • :15`.....r%V These agnill meent more wryour money - lilt AA, 72 Polaris Snowmobiles FROM $649 Available at • HAUGH EQUIPMENT 1 mile East of BRUCEFIELD PHONE 527-0138—SEAFORTH GRAHAM ARTHUR MOTORS . 518 MAIN STREET EXETER — ONTARIO Trade-in --170 Ski •Doo, 20 H.P., The United.-church women met on Tuesday evening with twenty-one ladles present.

Although we con- sider the Christmas tree very much. a part of Canadiana it has come to us from Germany and the Christmas card, from Eng- land. When we plan our Christmas and holidays menus we usually include turkey, cranberries,, mincemeat, plum puddings and fruit cakes. Turkey is a native North American dish but plum pudding and mince pies are Eng- lish. French-Canadians make "Tourtieres" (pork pies) and "Buches, de Noel" (rolled cakes frosted to resemble Yule logs), which originated in France. The cranberry is a fruit nat- ive •to North America and the early Indians cooked these wild, tart.berries with honey or maple syrup. They also dried them to inerease their storage proper- 'ties. Early experiments in the cultivation of cranberries in Canada began in Nova Scotia and some of these early bogs are still in production. Newer cranberry areas are in British Columbia. They ate,usually sold boxed; with a clear window to show their brilliant ;coloring. They are also canned as,a sauce, made"ilito jelly or juice. In the fresh state they are at their peak during November and Dec- ember. If desired the fresh ber- ries may be emptied into plas- tic bags• and frozen without fur- ther preparation, They will keep for several months. Cranberries are traditionally associated with poultry, whether at Christinas or any time of the year. The tart sauce or jelly, enhances chicken and turkey. However, its delightful coloring and tantalizing flavor make int• - eresting desserts. One suZt des- sert is "Cranberry Cream Mousse" a natural for holiday enjoyment. The recipe for this eye-"itching, moulded master- piece is among those found be- tween the covers of the new "Festive' Foods" leaflet put out by the home economists at Can- ada Agriculture, Ottawa. It is reproduced here so you can try it out in• your pre-Christmas entertaining. An added attraction is that it may be stored in the freezer.
