Dishes from Flavorful Fresh
Apples Add Interest to Meals
The glowing red and the gold
en glow of the Northwests De
licious apples fills our fruit bins
There are also plenty of Califor
nia's Newtowns. Apples lead all
fruits in popularity; perhaps be
cause of their extraordinary ver
satility. For eating out of hand,
the Delicious is thought by many
to be unsurpassed and certainly
it's an ideal salad maker. The
Golden Delicious is crisp, tender,
fragrant for fresh eating, for sal
ads and for general cooking. The
Yellow Newtowns make good
eating "as is" and are also good
cookers. The Crimson Winesap is
an extra good eating apple and
will be around increasingly for
many months.
Apple Storing. Apples retain
their crispness and flavor best
when stored in the refrigerator
at cool, but not freezing temper
atures. Apple Nutrition. Apples are
rated a good source of vitamin C
which is so vital in keeping
teeth and bones healthy and to
help build the body's resistance
to disease. Apples are also a
good source of vitamin A and of
calcium, the bone-builder.. Rich
In pectin, apples help the diges
tive system. Low in calories, they
are good in reducing diets. Con
vinced that you should feed the
family more apples? Well, how
about trying these ...
Apple Dumplings with
Red Cinnamon Sauce
Winesap or Golden Delicious
apples are our choice for use in
this dumpling recipe which is
well calculated to give you a
maximum amount of eating
pleasure. o
1V4 cups sugar
Vt cup red cinnamon candies

dies and water in saucepan and
bring to a boil. Stir until candies
are dissolved. Add enough red
food coloring to make sauce
bright red then stir in butter. Set
aside.
Roll dough until quite thin
and cut into six-inch squares
Peel and core apples then place
one on each square. Sprinkle
with cinnamon-sugar and dot
with butter. Fold corners of
dough to center over apple and
pinch edges together until dough
fits snugly around the apple. Re
move any excess dough in order
to give dumplings a round look.
Place in shallow pan one-inch
atiart with overlapping corners
on the bottom. Bake in hot (425
degree) oven for 15 minutes. Re
duce heat to 350 degrees (moder

Country Apple Salad
Town folks will like this ap
ple salad ... a favorite of coun
try folks. 1 " .
8 slices bacon
3 red apples, unpared
Ji to 1 cup diced celery
Vi to cup seedless raisins
V cup mayonnaise-lettuce

and fry until crisp. Drain on ab
sorbent paper and cool. Wash.
core and dice apples. Combine
bacon, apples, celery, raisins and
mayonnaise. Combine two or
three crisp lettuce leaves to form

elate. Fill lettuce cups with ap
ple mixture. Garnish with addi
tional greens if you wish. Four
servings. When soft raisins are
desired, pour one cup boiling wa
ter over raisins and let stand
ahnnt one minute. Drain and
cool.
Ancle Spice Tips
You'll be serving apples in so
msnv ways: apple pie, apple bet
ter annlp turnovers and. of
course, baked apples. - Even
imrjle baked apple can be more
sprinkling of mace.
For especially good baked ap
ples, make your own spice blend
of sugar and spice and place in
a shaker. Really convenient for
serving and maybe passing with
different kinds of puddings and
pies as well as baked apples. For
a tasty blend use one tablespoon
of cinnamon with a teaspoon
each of mace, cloves and nutmeg
and the amount of sugar that
suits your taste. Another excel
lent combination is a mixture of
two teaspoons mace with two
teaspoons' nutmeg. A small dash
of powdered mace will add inter
est to your next apple salad.
JJamsh Meat Balls ,
Ground beef is a real bargain
right now, but even if it weren't,
we think you would still buy
it in order to have this flavor
some meat dish. Serve with
mashed potatoes, rice, spaghetti,
or noodles. Six generous serv
ings. . - .
2 inch thick slices bread
Vz pounds ground beef
1 onion, finely minced
4 tablespoons drippings
or butter
V2 cup hot water
Vi teaspoon salt
Vs teaspoon pepper
Vi teaspoon powdered mace
or nutmeg
1 bay leaf
Soak bread in cold water.
Press dry. Crumble; add remain
ing ingredients and mix well.
Shape into balls; roll in flour.
Brown in melted fat in heavy
frying pan or Dutch oven. Add
hot water with bay leaf. Cover
and cook slowly Vi hour.
Here's a thrifty trick that lets
you get not only a fine party din
ner from the tenderest part of a
handsome beef rib roast, but also
another fresh-cooked meal of
braised short ribs. Have your
meat-man saw through the rib
end of the roast, then cut be
tween the ribs to make individ
ual servings of short ribs. Braise
short ribs slowly with vegetables
to stretch their good meat flavor
further.
Now for your handsome roast.
To- make it juicier and to get
more servings from it, too, keep
oven heat at 325 degrees. This
cuts shrinkage to a minimum.
One hour before done, put peel
ed potatoes in the pan to brown
in the drippings. Or perhaps
whip up a Yorkshire pudding.
Wintertime Upside-Down Cake
Flavor and nutrition packed
dried fruits come into their own
during the winter months. Here
we combine prunes and dried
apricots for an outstanding up-
side-down cake.
16 cooked prunes (pitted)
16 cooked sweetened dried apri
cots
x4 cup melted butter or mar
garine Vi cup brown sugar (packed)
V4 cup water
13 cup shortening
23 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
IVi cups sifted cake flour
Vz teaspoon salt
Vi cup milk
teaspoon vanilla extract
