CONSOMME: Homemade soup

ing liquid after soup is defrosted.

TURKEY: As early as four
weeks before the holiday dinner
you can prepare your turkey and
store it in the freezer. Large torn
turkeys (over IS lbs.) usually sell
for eight to ten cents less per
pound than small hen turkeys.
They are a smart buy for small
families too, because left - overs
may be safely frozen for later use.
You may freeze your turkey so
that it is oven - readv. so vou
may . roast it before freezing. If
turkey is frozen uncooked, take it
out of your freezer two or three
days before Christmas, allowing
about 5 hours per pound for thaw
ing in the refrigerator. Or if you
pefer to cook the holiday bird be
fore freezing, just roast as usual,
cool the turkey quckly, wrap tight
ly in freezer foil and. freeze. To
thaw and reheat, place foil-wrapped
frozen turkey in 325 degrees
F. oven, and allow 10 minutes per
pound for turkey to heat.
it you wistt to serve stul.ne or
dressing iwht the turkey, . freeze
and bake in a casserole, separate
ly from the turkey. A medium
sized casserole of prebaked froz
en stuffing will require about 1
hour in the same oven with the
turkey; if frozen unbaked, allow
additional 30 to 45 minutes for
