FESTIVE EATING It's after church on Easter and the family has gathered round for some festive eating. Whether you serve a ham, half a ham, leg o' lamb, turkey or plentiful, luscious frying chick ens like these for the meat course, be sure the seasonings you use are fresh. Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Feed Editor Fresh Seasoning Key To Flavor-Perfect Meals Easter is a time when families get together, and this calls for extra care in meal planning and preparation. While in the plan ning stage, check your spice cab inet and be sure all tired season ings are replaced by fresh ones. This is one of .the best ways we know df to insure the flavor perfect meals your family looks forward to. If it's a ham or half a ham you plan to serve next Sunday, or any time for that matter, you'll need fresh pungent whole cloves for sticking into the scoring marks. Ground ginger, clove, nutmeg or powdered mustard are welcome additions to glazes. Leg of lamb stuck with slivers of garlic or rubbed with garlic powder, fresh, of course, is truly aromatic. Powdered ginger rub- hpH i n t n a lamh rnacr Tint nnlv adds that just right touch to thel A.d ne teasPn salt, one- lamb, but makes the gravy some thing to long remember. All Out in Seasoning Stuffing for turkey or chicken . . . well, here you can really go all out in the seasoning depart ment. Freshly ground black pep per for a wonderful tang, leaf sage, thyme, oregano, marjoram, parsley, celery seed, onion pow der or salt, and whatever else needed for the flavor you love best. Fried chicken Is better than ever when dipped in an herb bat ter or shaken in a sack of well seasoned flour. Pepper and salt are musts, but from that point on let your imaginative taste buds take over. Any of the sea sonings that go well in stuffings, or perhaps a bit of chili powder for real flavor distinction. Save seasoned flour for thickening gravy. Paprika Chicken Fricassee Served Over Fluffy Rice So you're looking for a chick en fricassee recipe? Here is one that is new, at least to us, and the results are so succulent that you'll be doing this -one often. Serve over plentiful, economical rice. Spaghetti or noodles are also good with this. Makes six servings. 4 to 5 pound chicken or chicken parts 2 cups boiling water 2 teaspoons salt 3 cups chicken broth 1 cup tomato juice I 6-ounce can tomato paste l'2 teaspoons chili powder 1 tablespoon Spanish paprika V teaspoon ground black pep per , V teaspoon crumbled whole oregano leaves li cup chopped ripe olives Vz cup chopped green pepper. Wipe chicken with damp cloth. If fricassee chicken is used, cut into serving-size pieces. Place in saucepan along with water and salt. Cover. Cook until tender; about one hour for fricassee chicken about 30 minutes for chicken parts. Remove chicken from pan. Measure three cups broth and pour into saucepan. Add remaining ingredients. Cook 10 minutes. Add chicken, cook 15 to 20 minutes or until sauce has thickened and chicken is hot. Fragrant Herb Biscuits Tender and Delicious Parsley, celery seed and cara way seeds make these light, fluf fy herb biscuits, that will prompt many questions like, "Mom, what makes these so good?" 2 cups sifted flour 1 tablespoon baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons minced parsley Vi teaspoon celery seeds Vz teaspoon caraway seeds .4 cup shortening 23 to 4 cup milk Sift flour, baking powder and salt together. Add parsley, celery and caraway seeds. Cut or rub in shortening until mixture is crum bly. Add milk to make soft dough. Turn out on lightly flour ed board or pastry cloth and knead gently 30 seconds. Roll out one-half inch thick. Cut with floured biscuit cutter or sharp knife. Bake on ungreased baking sheet in hot oven, 450 degrees, 10 to 12 minutes. Easter Time Is Time for Eggs The Easter egg hunt is over . . . and just look at all those beautiful hard-cooked eggs your children found. Well, thanks to the protection of both the shell and the papery lining under neath, they will keep for hours without refrigeration as long as the shell is unbroken. However, as soon as the children have eaten far more of them than you think is humanly possible, it is a good idea to put the remaining ones in a covered container in the refrigerator for future use. Here are some suggested future uses. Deviled Eggs Country Style A fine dish that will use up nine of those Easter hard-cooked eggs. Cook 1V cups rice in boil ing salted water according to package instructions. Shell and cut in half lengthwise nine hard cooked eggs. Remove yolks and mash thoroughly. Mix with two tablespoons mayonnaise, one ta blespoon chopped onion and one tablespoon mustard-horseradish; salt and pepper to taste. Fill egg whites witn yolk mixture. Melt one-fourth cup butter or mar garine in saucepan over low heat. Blend one-fourth cup flour until smooth. Add 1V4 cups milk; stir and cook until thickened. eighth teaspoon pepper and two cups grated cheese; stir constant ly until cheese melts and sauce is smooth. Pile cooked rice lightly in shallow baking dish Pour cheese sauce over rice. Arrange eggs on top,- sprinkle with paprika and bake in moderate, 350 degree oven about 20 minutes. Garnish with parsley or perhaps slices of pimiento stuffed olives. Other Hard-Cooked Egg Uses Garnish your Easter .dinner meat course with colored stuffed hard-cooked eggs. Place whole peeled eggs in water with de sired amount of vegetable color ing. When just the right tint re move from water, dry and stuff in your favorite manner. Over fill the whites enough that when put back together the filling pools out and gives a ruffled ef fect. Add chopped or quartered hard-cooked eggs to any vege table salad for extra goodness. Arrange whole hard-cooked eggs throughout your favorite meat loaf for interesting texture and flavor contrast. Sprinkle grated hard -cooked eggs over such vegetables as spinach, broccoli or green beans. Boysenberry Pies for Easter Party Enjoyment Easter, 1957 ... and what could finish off that after-church family dinner better than a de lectable, juicy Boysenberry pie with all the tart-sweetness of August-ripened berries "frozen in." Modern American families enjoy fresh frozen berries, ber ry pies and other berry deli cacies any time. Keep pies handy in your freezer ready to bake or if you are enamored of our own shorter-than-average pie crust just have the frozen berries standing by to give you an assist. Boysenberry Pie Toppings Ice cream, naturally . . . Whether you buy pies complete ly ready for the oven or if you make your own, you are likely to serve the finished product with slathers of ice cream. To teen-agers "slathers" denotes big slanting spoonfuls of ice cream from a big kitchen spoon. It's true the contrast of cold cream iness and rich hot fruitiness is tops in flavor and color. We warn you, however, not to put cold ice cream on hot pie on a glass serving plate. , This is the voice of experience. Cheese toppings, but definite ly .. . Top with cream cheese softened with a bit of cream. Or try a wedge of cheddar cheese at the side. When a special occasion decoration is in order, buy already sliced Amer ican cheese and cut holiday or seasonal patterns from it witn a cookie cutter. While table is being cleared after main course drop cheese cutouts on top of baked pie- Just five minutes more in a 400 degree oven will soften cheese and lightly tip it with brown. Tasty Nibbles Tiny, tasty appetizers to serve in the living room before a company dinner. Blend together an eight-ounce package of cream cheese with two tablespoons each blue cheese,- finely chopped celerj and mayonnaise, one tablespoon minced onion and dash of cay enne pepper. Shape into tiny balls and roll in finely chopped ripe olives. Chill and serve on picks. Never store those bake 'n eat biscuits in the freezer compart ment of your refrigerator. These biscuits bake better when kept in the regular food storage com partment of refrigerator. ILLINOIS VALLEY PTA Officers Elected BY HELEN BOTTEL Cave Junction Mrs. J. V.
