Tradition 'Again Kings' Cakes, Roast Pig Make Food News on New Years Day By MAXINE BUREN , y- Statesman Woman's Editor 4 Perhaps your cooking days are over for this year or, if you go in for tradition, you still have some preparations to make before the family is through with its holidays. The New Year's dinner may include' something big, like ham, or turkey, or if you are a country family and go in for tradition to the hilt, perhaps you'll have roast pig. But probably not. I remember once we had roast pig at home, because Mother was sentimental and liked to do the things tradition said she should. We began to feel a dis interest in that pig hen it first came into the kitchen. And by the time it was ready for the table, I at least was out of the mood. Though as I remember no aversion to eating it the meat was not what we thought pork should be. Many European countries traditionally eat roast pig on New Year's Day. It's the meat for Chechoslovakia, Hungary and Norway, though roast pork or roast goose are alternates. Carp, herring salad and hot punch are supposed to be traditional New Year's Eve fare for the Germans and Swede? are served roast ham. A special Berner brod is served in Switzerland. The recipe goes this way: BERNER HOLIDAY BREAD 1 cake yeast y cup chopped citron 1 cup milk 1 cup chopped raisins cup melted shortening 4 cup chopped almonds V cup sugar 4 cup green and red 1 egg cherries 3 cups flour Vi teaspoon grated Vt teaspoon salt lemon peel Crumble yeast in a bowl, add milk that has been scalded and cooled to lukewarm. Add melted shortening, sugar and egg. Sift, measure flour and add salt and sift again. Add to first mixture. Knead well, let rise until double in bulk. Cut downwind let rise again for about half hour. Toss dough on a lightly floured board and roll out Sprinkle with citron, raisins, almonds, cherries and lemon rind. Work through dough thoroughly. Form into a loaf and place in well buttered bread pan about 9x5 inches or a little larger. Let dough rise until double in bulk, brush top of loaf with melted butter and bake at 375 degrees for about 45 minutes. When bread is cold, cover with a thin icing. GOOD LUCK And if you have a Southerner in your household, or among your guests, on New Year's Day, be sure youWve Black eye peas, usually merely boiled and seasoned. Thiss a must for Southerners, for without them, there'll be bad luck all year! ' January 6, Epiphany, commemorates the visit of the three wise men to the Christ child and, being the twelfth day after Christmas, it is often known as Twelfth Night. Cake of the Kings is the food most known on this day. It might.be called Gateau des rois (Belgium), Galette des rois (France) or Epiphany Cake (German). It waa customary to place a bean in the cake before baking and great excitement was felt by those served, for the one who found the bean in his piece became king of the revels for the remainder of the evening. The only recipe my books show for cakes made"for this occasion, is for Twelfth Night cake which is a true pound cake. TWELFTH NIGHT CAKE (Pound Cake) 4H cups flour (1 pound) 10 eggs s teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla 1 pound butter Vt teaspoon lemon 1 pound sugar (2 cups) extract Sift flour once, then again with salt. Cream butter and gradually add the sugar, beating until creamy. Add egg yolks welL beaten witbrotary beaterand-when batters-very light, tift in the flour, a little at a time. Beat well, stir in the lemon and vanilla and carefully fold in the beaten egg whites. " Pour batter into two loaf pans buttered and lined with buttered paper. Bake in a slow, 300 degree oven for 1V hours or until cake shrinks from the side of pans. Speadiag the holidays In Salem were Mr. and Mrs. Ambrose Kol by and daughter.
