TWELVE The Gazette-Times,
Wheat growers seek
representative recipe
A search has started in
Oregon for "a product that
will be a symbol of Oregon
wheat production", according
to Frank Tubbs, Adams wheat
farmer and chairman of the
Oregon Wheat Commission.
Oregon wheat growers pre
dominately produce a class of
soft white wheat that is used
for making fine pastry prod
ucts such as cakes, cookies
and pastry flour. About 80 per
cent of Oregon's wheat is
exported to Asian countries
where it makes various spec
iality products such as nood
les, sponge cakes and unleav
ened bread products.
"In the United States," said '
Tubbs, "we use our Oregon
wheat generally for pastry
products. I is only fitting that
we call our contest an "Ore
gon S'Wheat Roll" contest."
Original recipes are sought,
according to Mrs, Helene
Holcomb, staff member of the
Oregon Wheat Commission.
She said that any recipe can
be submitted for the contest as
long as it uses wheat flour and
is original.
"The recipe must be indivi
dually created," she said,
"and cannot be the property of
another person or firm."
Judging of the contest will
be by professional home
economists selected by Ivan
Packard, administrator of the
Oregon Wheat Commission.
Recipes will be judged on
creativity, good product use,
practicality, texture, flavor,
attractiveness, completeness
and clarity.
Six finalists will be chosen
and participate in a bake-off to
be held in Portland. Expenses
of the finalists will be paid for
the bake-off. The date of the
bake-off has not been announ
ced. Prizes for the "S'Wheat
Roll" winner will be $100 and a
silver tray for the first place
winner, second prize will be
$75, with third prize being $50.
Fourth, fifth and sixth prizes
will be $25.
Contest deadline is Jan. 31,
1979. Entries are to be mailed
to the "S'Wheat Roll Contest",
Oregon Wheat Commission,
P.O. Box 400, Pendleton,
Oregon 97801. Full informa
tion and contest rules are also
available at the same address.

Heppner, Oregon, Thursday November 30, 1978
"This is an original pro
motion," said Tubbs. "Oregon
produces some of the best
pastry and flour in the world,
we have some pretty good
cooks at home, and we need to
tell more people about it."
