Fill molds wilh Are you making the most of your home freezer? It's wise to buy foods when you can take advantage of special prices. To day with plentiful supplies of beef coming to market, you'll wisely add to your freezer a quantity of beef cuts, When packaging meat for freezing, have it cut the right size for your family meals or for guest meals. Clearly mark each package accordingly so you quickly choose it from the freezer. It's highly important that you wrap meat so that air can not reach the meat surface. A number of wrappings on the market may be used. If you purchase meat from self-service market unwrap it. then place in regular freezing wrap pings before freezing. Frozen meat may be defrost ed before- or during cooking. If before cooking, defrost either in the refrigerator or at room temperature. Of course defrost ing time depends upon the tem perature and the size. Chunky pieces take a longer period than thin cuts. Wrapped frozen meat, likewise, takes longer man unwrapped meat. When preparing a frozen roast you can estimate cooking time by allowing approximate-1 ly Vt to again as long as those which have been defrost ed. Steaks or chops to be coat ed with batter or with crumbs should be defrosted before cooking. Thick frozen Steaks and chops must be broiled more slowly than defrosted steaks or ohops in order that the meat will be cooked to the donencss desired without be coming too brown on the out side, i A Simple Valentine Day Cake A package of graham crackers, some shredded coconut and whip ped cream go into this super cake which you can ice with any flavor ed frosting or top with whipped cream as we did, with a real or artificial flower through center of a red paper heart allowing one for each serving.
