SHOP lENOW'S II Which holiday drink fit» boih the festive season and the pocketbook? The host or hostess at home as well as those in well-known restaur ants may attempt to prepare some thing different— but the perennial favorite at Holiday time is eggnog. The association between eggnog and the holidays dates back to long ago. The word “ eggnog" probably came from an old English term, "nog g in ,” meaning a small cup a similar drink was served in centuries ago. O f the many ways to prepare eggnog, a special made-from- scratch recipe may be the answer for those looking for an economical, holiday refreshment. •Eggnog eliminates the expense of stocking a bar. Eggnog and a fruit-based punch make a complete and festive party fare, and the sav ings are considerable when com pared to the cost o f stocking a bar • I t ’s economical in other ways, too. During the past 27 years, the cost o f a dozen eggs has risen by only 18 cents. •T h e eggnog is no time-waster, either. It takes just a few minutes to prepare this delicious homemade treat. •Eggnog is a drink and dessert in one. The sweet creamy drink usually conquers even the serious sweet tooth and satisfies the need for des sert or additional calories. •There are no leftovers to worry about with eggnog. Transform any unused eggnog into a sumptuous eggnog pie. The following recipe shows how. In fact, you may just want to make sure you’ ll have some extra to transform into this easy and elegant dessert. For those who are still hesitant about preparing eggnog from scratch, remember that egg yolks and whites are easiest to separate when they arc cold, so It’s best to separate them right out of the refrig erator. HAwever, egg whites should remain at room temperature for half an hour or so before whipping, and they should be whipped in a non plastic bowl. Ultra-pasteurized heavy whipping cream is more d iffi cult to whip so choose non-ultra- pasteurized whipping cream, as long as you don’ t plan on storing it for more than one week. Keep in mind that a small bowl is best for whip ping cream because it allows the beaters or whisks to incorporate more air. I f a punch bowl o f from-scratch eggnog is too much, though, one or two can still partake in the festivi ties by following the “ Easy Banana Nog” recipe. • Oa» •«>»• (Convenient Food Mart* a a a a a a i S t* > )rd )> «». )» rd le b a R ie g A t ! e^a A M I A l l O«»l»‘ » " A W as» fts»m a*4« Os « i f * A a C ity SE 201 h b D IV IS IO N Forest Grove 2329 PACIFIC 14410 SE D IV IS IO N SE 72nd b FLAVEL Oregon Crty 878 M OLALLA 3955 SE POW ELL NE 15,h b FR E M O N T Canby 105, S W 1», NE 74,h b G L IS A N W B U R N S ID E «1 21a, LLOYD CENTER H ILL SB O R O 960 SE OA K SA N RAFAEL 1910 NE 122nd L L T R DR.
