Can't you just taste those luscious berries, rich whipped cream and golden brown shortcake? Recipes for this and other strawberry desserts are included in today's food columns. Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Fresh Strawberry Shortcake Enjoyed by Young and Old It's strawberry shortcake time again! A season looked forward to by every member of the fam ily. One thing sure, strawberry shortcake addicts are noted for their stubborn ways. Some like it sweet; some like it a la nat ural. One group will insist that the berries be mashed with sugar; to another group this is unforgivable, and so forth. Re gardless of the way you serve it though, strawberry shortcake is "food for the gods." California strawberries are reaching the abundant stage in local markets. Northwest straw berries will be coming along a bit later. Soon you will be dis cussing with your produce man the best time to buy for freez ing, canning and jam making. In the meantime, even if you have to splurge a bit, serve fresh strawberry desserts right now. Middle-of-the-Road Strawberry Shortcake We favor this shortcake recipe because it is a "middle of the roader." Not too sweet; not too tart. Berries cut in half; neither mashed or whole. Biscuit dough is slightly sweetened for a semi- cake effect. We prefer our cream whipped without sugar, but there's no law against sweeten ing it and perhaps adding a bit of vanilla. Or in place of whip ped cream use softened ice cream, soft custard, or for cal orie watchers whipped instant non-fat dry milk crystals. 1 quart fresh strawberries 1 cup sugar 2 cups sifted all-purpose flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 34 teaspoon salt Va. cup sugar Vi cup shortening 1 eS2 13 cup milk 2 tablespoons melted butter or margarine 1 cup heavy cream, whipped. Cut those luscious red straw berries in half; add one cup sugar and mix tenderly but well. Set aside. Sift flour, baking powder, salt and one-fourth cup sugar together. Cut in shorten ing. Beat egg and add to milk; pour into flour mixture and mix lightly. Place on lightly floured board and knead gently 10 times. Roll into eight-inch circle. Press lightly into greased eight inch layer pan. Bake in hot oven, 400 degrees, 30 minutes. When cool split in half. Brush lower half with melted butter or margarine. Top with half the strawberries, half the whipped cream and remaining shortcake layer. Top with remaining berries and cream. The number of servings will depend on how "mad" your family is for this all-time favorite.

Wine Adds Gourmet Touch To Casierole Cookery Cooks of imagination and good taste delight in experimenting with different combinations of foods and seasonings. Perhaps more than any one other in gredient, wine adds that gour met touch and great flavor variety to casserole dishes. Its purpose is to bring out or point up the natural goodness of the foods and to subtly round out the combination of flavors. Since the wine alcohol evaporates in cooking, the entire family can enjoy these dishes. There are natural "taste har monies" between certain wines and foods, and a knowledge of these will be a good guide in using wine in casserole dishes. Sherry is, perhaps the most ver satile. It blends harmoniously with fish, cheese, meat and chicken. Next are Sauterne and Rhine wine, their light flavors go especially well with fish, chicken, veal and the milder cheeses. Red table wines, as might be expected,, go particu larly well in dishes made with red meats and those of robust flavor. The dessert wines are not of much help in casserole cookery; they are used primarily for desserts and sweet sauces.
