Turkey Defrosting and
Roasting Time Reminder
Because of the tremendous
popularity of turkey at Easter
time in this part of the country,
we quickly review turkey de
frosting and roasting time with
and without aluminum foil.
We're not suggesting how to
roast turkey because we're con
fident you know how. We're just
reviewing time elements.
Defrost frozen turkey in re
frigerator in its wrappings. This
may take two to four days de
pending on size of turkey. A 12
pound bird takes two days.
Traditional Roasting Time
No matter what the size of
your turkey, roast at low tem
perature when doing traditional
style. Two to- four pounders,
oven-ready take 21 2 to three
hours at 350 degrees. Four to six
pounders take three to Vz hours
at 325 degrees. Six to eight
pounders take 3Vb to four hours
at 325 degrees. Eight to 12
pounders take four to 4V2 hours
at 325 degrees. From there on
up, set the oven at 300 degrees
for 5V2 to six hours to insure in
side doneness.
Foil Roasting Time
Researchers working with
aluminum foil find that a high
oven temperature of 450 degrees
gives best results; .saves up to
half the time required to roast
large turkeys by the low tem
perature method. Eight to 10
pounders, oven-ready take 2
to 2Vi hours at 450 degrees. Ten
to 12 pounders take 2:4 to three
hours at 450 degrees, fourteen
to 16 pounders take three to VA
hours at 450 degrees. Eighteen to
20 pounders take 3l"4 to 3V2
hours at 450 degrees and 22 to
24 pounders take Sli to 3?4
hours. Fold foil back around
edges of pan about 20 minutes
before end of roasting period to
give more attractive brown
color.
Start Early
Start 30 to 40 minutes ahead
of time in relation to the dinner
hour to allow bird to come out
of the oven, to firm up for easier
carving and for you to make
gravy, etc.
Savory Ham Slice
For the small family who
plans a two pound ham slice.
Remove rind from ham; cut off
fat and cfiip it quite fine. Add
two tablespoons prepared mus
tary, two tablespoons currant
jelly and one teaspoon grated
onion. Mix well and spread over
ham. Bake in slow oven, 325 de
grees, for about IV2 hours.
Fruit Punch for
Easter Week Visitors
It's a party whenever two or
more persons get together and
share a beverage and some cook
ies. Just the home folks can
have a delightful impromptu
party to please the children any
time of day. Or invite the neigh
boring children in ... or anti
cipate the comings and goings of
the teen-agers by stirring up a
fruit punch.
Popular fruit punch combina
tions using equal parts of ginger
ale and juices include orange ;
juice, loganberry juice, pine
apple juice, peach or apricot nec
tars or grape juice. A tablespoon
rf lemon juice is often added for
each tall glass of berry, fruit or
nectar combination; not for
grape juice, however. When
using carbonated or sparkling
water, it is necessary to add
sweetening. Always add ginger
ale or charged water just before
serving and pour over ice cubes.
For fancy drinks, a small
scoop of orange sherbet or va
nilla ice cream will produce
childrhappy results.
Eggs for Breakfast
Traditional for Easter break
fast, tender, soft-cooked eggs are
cooked in just enough water to
cover. Start in cold water; bring
to simmering point and keep it
there for three to five minutes.
Never let the water boil. This is
the day when we ask the family
'"how many" and sometimes are
astounded by the number of
eggs Dad and the children con
sume. Strawberry Mold
Easily made, certain to please
as salad course or as luncheon or
supper specialty with a stack of
sandwiches.
Dissolve two packages lemon
flavored gelatirf in three cups
hot water. Chill gelatin until
syrupy. Wash and hull three
cups fresh strawberries or use
two packages frozen strawber
ries, thawed and drained. Mash
berries and add one cup sugar
Combine gelatin and berry mix
ture and gradually add one-cup
real mayonnaise. Pour into in
dividual molds. Chill until set
Top with mayonnaise and extra
straw berries. Six generous
servings.
Ham, Turkey and Lamb
Vie for Easter Honors
Many Easter Sunday dinners
will be built around roast tur
key, baked ham and leg of lamb,
all of which are readily avail
able at reasonable cost. If you
choose the large, older leg of
lamb, why not have it boned for
easy carving? Dad would like
that. If however, you choose the
new season (more expensive)
Spring lamb that is just putting
in an appearance, better not
bone it. More pork, both fresh
and smoked, than usual at this
season. Beef continues plentiful
with freshly ground beef and
stewing meat surprisingly low in
cost.
Fish and Shellfish
Frozen halibut is usually plen
tiful with good supplies of rock-
fishes, salmon, sole, crab, oysters
and shrimp among local favor
ites. Fillets and fish sticks are
readily available; quickly pre
pared at moderate cost. Canned

to matching these important Chevrolet advantages...
If you're planning to buy a new car, the one
you just can't afford to miss seeing is Chev
roletfor 19 straight years America's best
selling car. The Motoramic Chevrolet offers
you so much more than the other low-priced
cars that it's hardly fair to compare them.
And even the high-priced cars don't have
all the advantages that today's Chevrolet .
offers you.
The beauty's built in not bolted on!
And that makes a big difference not only in
how your car looks today, but in how it will
look tomorrow, too. Chevrolet's good looks
spring from fine, clean design. The beauty
is inherent in the basic contours of metal and
glass. There's no excessive bolted-on orna
mentation to go out of style overnight.
The Body's by Fisher!
No other low-priced car has a Body by Fisher
but -many -of-the high-priced cars do. That
fact alone tells you there must be something
extra special about the style, quality and con
struction of Body by Fisher. And there is!
You can see it, feel it and even hear it when
you slam the door.
Today's most modern engines!
That goes for Chevrolet's new V8 and two
new sixes as well. For example, all Chevrolet
engines bring you a modern 12-volt electrical
system-double the voltage of other low-priced
cars. This means quicker cold weather start
ing, and a greater electrical reserve. Then
Chevrolet's new "Turbo-Fire V8" has the
shortest piston stroke in the industry, and
develops the highest power per pound of any
V8 in the low-price field. It takes valve-in-head
leadership like Chevrolet's to bring you
engines like these!
A drive to suit your driving!
You can take your choice of three different
drives and every one's as modern as this
minute. There's silky, peppery Powerglide
(even better this year!), new Overdrive (both
extra-cost options), and a new Synchro-Mesh
transmission that's as smooth as they come.
All the power helpers you want!
Windows, seat, steering, brakes all are avail
able with built-in "muscles" to make driving
as effortless as you wish. And you can even
have air conditioning if you like. These things
are extra-cost options, of course, but they
more than repay you with extra pleasure.
Fun is "standard equipment"!
You find that out the first time you take the
wheel of a new Chevrolet. Here, you discover,
is a car that takes the curves like it's on rails,
that steers like it's reading your mind. It
seems simply to ignore bumps and when you
stop suddenly, there s no excessive lurching
or diving, either. There has never been such a
difference in low-priced cars as there is today
or so m any good reasons why you should drive
a new Chevrolet. Come in and take the key.
CHEVROLET SALES LEADERSHIP
IS A VICTORY IN VALUE
FOR YOU I
Isn't it logical that, since Chevro
let leads in sales year after year:
Chevrolet must put more into
a car than its competitors more
quality . '. . more craftsmanship
. . . more style . . . more things
to make your driving easier and
safer and more fun." You have to
do that to be the leader and stay
the leader like Chevrolet! Because
Chevrolet builds the most cars
and can build them better to sell
for less Chevrolet sales leader
ship is a victory in value for you! ,
