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.

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

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.
