Page 2 Section II Portland Observer, May 20,1982 Time for Chocolate treats! A fru it delight. Peach M elba Pancake Puff is filled w ith peaches and ice cream , topped w ith W h a t’s your favo rite ice cream flavor? Chances are it’s chocolate (better known to the young set as "chawk- lit” ). However it’s pronounced, that bittersweet flavo r w ith the cool, clean edge has a soothing effect on the palate when the weather turns hot and sultry. And chocolate’s at its best in homemade ice cream. The recipe below is easy to follo w , and you don't need elaborate equipment (no cranking!) or time-consuming preparation. In fact, most o f the in gredients are convenience-food sta ples. Cocoa, for instance, provides a tim e-and-m otion saving here over chocolate, because there’s no heat ing, melting or mess involved. You just measure it out and mix it in. And while you’re “ thinking cho colate,** try the delightful petit four brownies— a double chocolate bon us when served with the chocolate ice cream, and a w onderful flavor combination with vanilla for those who like their chocolate in smaller doses. Another way to satisfy cho colate hunger in the summertime is to whip up this cool, minty punch. I t ’s sm ooth, refreshing, and a soothing change from sweet, car bonated beverages. raspberry preserves. Pancake puff: A great big treat That classic combination o f rasp berries and peaches, peach melba, is the topping for this gigantic sundae- in-a-shell called Peach M elba Pan cake Puff. H o w do you begin to make this dazzling dessert? You prepare the pancake pu ff, a task which is made easy when you count on pancake & w a ffle m ix. T o make a pancake p u ff, all you do is boil water and butter in a saucepan, add the mix and stir until the mixture leaves the sides o f the pan. Then you stir in the eggs, one at a tim e , beating well after each addition. Spread the mix ture over the bottom and sides o f a greased glass pie plate, and bake. Remember that the b atter used is similar to a cream p u ff batter. The oven d oor should not be opened during baking, or the p u ff may fall. To serve, mound or scoop vanilla ice cream into the cooled pu ff, and top with peach slices and raspberry preserves. (O f course, the p u ff can also hold banana splits and hot fudge sundaes or an ice cream con coction you can dream u p !) In short.

Broadw ay Portland • 287-1221 Open Monday-Saturday, 10 AM -7 PI Sesame seed:Product of Africa FRESH - OREGON GROWN FRYER PARTS Drumsticks THIGHS Is 1.29 .51.59 Although many Americans have only recently become acquainted with the nut-sweet flavor o f sesame seed, this is one o f mankind's oldest foods. The greatest part o f the world’s sesame seed crop is consumed in the Near and Far East and Africa, where it is one o f the most valuable sources o f edi ble oil. Here in the United States, last year we imported more than sixty-nine m il lion pounds o f sesame seed, all of which was used as a seasoning. Ethiopia is our greatest source o f imported sesame seed, but Nicaragua, the Sudan Republic, Mexico, Guatemala, and a half dozen other countries also supply considerable amounts. In recent years, extensive sesame acreage has been established in the United States. Sesame was brought to America in the seventeenth century by A frican slaves, who called it “ benne seed” ; in Africa it had always been the symbol o f good luck. It is still referred to by this name in the New Orleans area. As in our recipe, frequently sesame seeds are toasted before use. They burn easily and, therefore, require close supervision. Spread a thin layer of the seeds in a baking pan or skillet; toast at 35O°F., or over medium heat, until they begin to change color, 5 to 6 minutes (if toasting in a skillet, stir constantly). Remove from pan, allow to cool, then transfer to an airtight container. They’ll keep several weeks at room temperature, several months in the freezer.
