that combines Italian sausage, shell­
fish and chunks o f fish in a rich and
mellow beer and tomato sauce. I t ’s
a dish y o u ’ll be proud to call your
own. Serve this stew in big, deep
bowls with a basket o f Italian bread
and a big green s a la d .. .or a heap­
ing platter o f “ crudites” — raw vege­
tables cut into bite-size pieces, for
dunking in the sauce.
Or the fish fillets in a beer platter
— it ’s a light, T em pura-like batter
that’s as easy to make as it is to eat.
Serve the crispy fillets in a big bas­
ket, with plenty o f spicy beer-and-
tomato dipping sauce and a dish o f
spicy beans cooked in beer and
herbs. Absolutely u n iq u e.. .and de­
licious.
The beer-basted salmon steaks,
grilled until sizzling, are inform al
enough for a backyard barbecue yet
fancy enough, w ith an elegant
creamy beer-and-tarragon sauce,
for a form al dinner party.

Seafood provides
treasure
of minerals
L tlU lb t
For the nutrition-conscious indi­
vidual, seafood provides a “ hidden
treasure” o f minerals necessary for
growth and good health.
“ Shellfish, especially clams and
oysters, are excellent sources o f
ir o n ,” says M a rg a re t H a m ilto n ,
M u ltn o m a h C o u n ty Extension
A gent. “ An average size serving
supplies about 30 per cent of the re­
commended d aily allow ance for
iron. Scallops and mussels are also
good sources o f iro n ."
“ Canned sardines, salmon and
mackeral are a good source o f cal­
cium, especially if the bones are eat­
en with the fis h ,” noted M argaret
Lqvis, Oregon State University Ex­
tension nutritjion specialist." “ The
heat treatment used in canning these
products softens the bones so they
are edible."
An average service (three ounces)
o f oil or mustard-packed sardines
yields o n e -fo u rth o f the recom ­
mended daily calcium allowance.
Sardines packed in tomato sauce, on
the other hand, supply one-third o f
the recommended daily allowance
o f calcium with only two-thirds o f
the 1st in oil-packed sardines.
“ Seafood is also an excellent
source o f iodine and flu o rin e ,”
Lewis says. Although the amounts
masy vary, other valuable elements
found in seafood include phospho­
rus, potassium, copper, zinc, mag
nesium, selenium and cobalt.
