Feeding the Family By Zola Vincent Food Editor French Fried Shrimp Easr To Fix Al Horn You've enjoyed french fried shrimp as a restaurant specialty and perhaps in the home of a friend but have you personally discovered that you can easily prepare them for family enjoy ment? Shrimp, you know, is far and away America's favorite crustacean and is available the year around in iced or quick frozen form. One pound of shelled raw shrimp is about right for serving 3 persons generously. 2 pounds green shelled shrimp 'i cup flour J 4 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon sugar Vi teaspoon salt 1 egg V cup milk or water Clean but do not cook shrimp. Sift flour, measure and resift with baking powder, su gar and salt into a mixing bowl. Beat egg. add milk or water and add to flour mixture; stir just enough to blend. Dip raw, clean ed shrimp into batter one at a time, drop into deep fat heated to 360 degrees. Fry to a delicate golden brown. Lift out onto ab sorbent paper to drain a few mo ments and serve piping hot with Tartar or Soy sauce. When cook ed shrimp are used, fry at high er temperature, more quickly. Pork Chop Variations Time was when 'twas thought that fresh pork shouldn't be eaten in the summertime. Lucky for us that we Know better now. Fresh pork makes fine eating any time of the year. One of the best things about pork chops or pork shoulder steaks is the way thev can be dressed up. Al though many daubt if you can improve on simple browned and slow-braised pork chops, salted and peppered. DeLuxe Pork Chop Skillet. After browning chops on both sides, place on each a slice of tomato and onion and some chopped green pepper. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with canned sliced mushrooms and liquid from mushrooms. Cover and cook slowly one hour. Orange Pork Shoulder Steaks. Brown steaks on both sides in a Soil Conservation District Expansion Election August 8 j An election will be held Aug ust 8 on the inclusion of addi tional territory within the Sams Valley-Beagle soil conservation district, according to agricultural agent W. B. Tucker. If the area is added, the size of the district will be increased nearly four times. The voters in the northwest corner of Jackson county will decide if their area is to be con solidated with the soil conser vation district. Every one in the area who owns 10 acres or more will be eligible to vote. The territory which may be added is bounded by Trail creek, the Rogue river and the north and west county lines. It would add some 148,000 acres to the district. Petitioned for Inclusion People in the area petitioned to be included in the Sams Valley-Beagle soil conservation dis trict. A two-thirds vote is re quired among the property owners before the area will be added to the district. Some 600 persons in the area have received ballots. They may be cast at the three polling places August 8 or they may be mailed to the polling place by August 5. Polling places will be the Enter prise Grange hall in Wimer, the Live Oak Grange hall in Rogue River and the VFW hall in Shady Cove. Chester Jenson, Wimer, is supervisor of the election. If ballpts are mailed in they must be signed on the envelope by the property owners, Tucker warned. Robert C. Baum, executive secretary of the State Soil Con servation committee, will come to Medford August 6 to meet with the judges of the election.

Pour liquid over and around the steaks and sprin kle with Vi teaspoon thyme and 3 tablespoons chopped onion. Cover skillet and simmer for an hour, basting occasionally. Bean Dish With a Dash Stringless green beans with long straight pods, crisp enough to snap easily between your fingers are your best buy. When the beans start to ridge and bulge the pods, they are usually tough and leathery. On the mar ket all year, fresh green beans are especially good right now Canned or frozen beans are equally usable, of course. 1 medium onion 6 tablespoons butter or mar garine 1V pounds cooked green beans 3 tomatoes, peeled and quar tered 1V4 teaspoons sugar V2 teaspoon salt V teaspoon celery salt Dash pepper Cut onion in slices, separate into rings and saute in butter or margarine over low heat fivp minutes. Combine cooked green beans, tomatoes, sugar and sea sonings and add to onion. Cook 10 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Makes 6 servings. Orange Glazed Beets Beets are marketed with or without' tops. Personally, we pick out the bunch with the freshest tops, caution the checker-outer not to remove them and later add them to salad greens or pan quickly and add to cook ed beets at the last minute. Orange juice and grated rind do things to beets like this: Vt cup butter or margarine Vt cup sugar Vz cup orange juice 2 teaspoons grated orange rind 1 teaspoon cider vinegar 1 tablespoon cornstarch 2 tablespoons cold water 3 cups cooked, sliced beets Heat and bring to a boil, the butter or margarine, sugar, or ange juice, orange rind and vinegar.

Put lid on saucepan; cook over low heat until tender, allowing same time as for boil ing the vegetable. 13 cup butter or margarine 3 pounds peas or 4 cups, shelled 8 scallions or green onions "Vt teaspoon salt Vt teaspoon sugar Lettuce leaves Place butter or margarine in saucepan. Clean and trim scal lions using all that good green part. Chop and mix with peas. Place in pan and sprinkle with salt and sugar.

Shake pan gently once or twice while cook ing. Discard lettuce leaves and serve vegetables hot. Makes 6 servings. Asparagus, Mock Hollandaise This mock Hollandaise is so easy to make, never separates, tastes divine. Use canned or froz en asparagus if it seems a better buy than the fresh product right row.

Add V tea spoon salt, Vs teaspoon white pepper, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 1 teaspoon grated lem on rind. Remove from hot water and serve over cooked aspara gus. Makes 6 servings. Good over broccoli, too. Melon-Ginger Appetizer. For an elegant first course, cut small size chilled cantaloupes into halves. Fill each cavity with balls made from another melon, together with any fresh berries. Add a touch of sparkling ginger ale. Garnish with mint sprig. Produce Abundance Makes Easy Week-End Meal Planning Perusal of newspaper market advertisments reveals an abund ance of seasonal good things with prices amazingly low on many items. Fresh fruits and melons vie for attention from breakfast-time to late, evening snacking. Colorful, nutrition packed vegetables offer a profu sion of menu-planning ideas. Sal ad makings are at the peak of perfection as to quality, at low ebb when it comes to price. Apricots and Peaches. Califor nia produces about 97 per cent of all apricots grown commer cially; about 45's of the crop is commercially canned, dried or frozen. Pacific northwest pro duces good supplies for local markets. Enjoy your share of the fresh crop in fresh fruit salads, fruit cream, shortcake, pie, apricot whip, butter, pre serves, spiced, pickled, stewed and of course, fresh from the tree. Only tree ripened apricots reach their peak of flavor so choose fully ripe ones. Peach season is running about two weeks late. Markets are well supplied but talk over can ning and freezing plans .with your favorite fruit man if you've not already done so. ' Berries, grapes, melons are of excellent quality. Enjoy them often. - Best Tegetable buys are likely to include all bunched vege tables, cabbage, cauliflower, let tuce, onions, with good supplies of celery, corn, cucumbers, egg plant, peas, potatoes, squash, to- Friday, July 25. 1952 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE matoes.
