(IP) Fresh, hot apple pie no longer is a seasonal delicacy. Frances O.

Jonathan, Staymen, Winesap and Rome Beauty apples are recommended for pies. The pies can be frozen either baked or unbaked, as you choose. but there is a difference in the way you do each. If you freeze pies unbaked, invert a second plate, which can be cardboard, over the top of the pie and heat-seal in cello phane. Wrap and freeze imme diately. When ready to use the pie, remove the cellophane and the second plate and bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes. Aft er ten minutes, puncture the top crust with a fork and bake for another 50 minutes, or until the fruit is cooked at 350 degrees. Cool and serve. To prepare a pre-baked pie for freezing, bake at 450 de grees for 15 minutes. Then, re duce heat to 350 degrees and bake another 35 minutes. Freeze in the pie plate or transfer to a cardboard plate. Cover the pasteboard plate with another of the same size, to serve as the under plate, and heat seal in cellophane or wrap in freezer foil. If cellophane is used, wrap again in ordinary wrapping paper to protect the cellophane. Unwrap the pie and reheat at 450 degrees for 20 to 30 minutes.

Employer of Men Chefs Says Most Women Dislike Cooking By CHARLES B. ENGELKE United Press Correspondent Philadelphia OP) Max Wink ler thinks women aren't very good cook material. And, making a deliberate leap from the frying pan into the fire, he adds that "most women just don't like to cook." Winkler should know a little pbout his subject because he has some 200 chefs working for him and not one of them is a woman. Winkler, president of the Longchamps chain of restaur ants, conceded that he would like to have women around his kitchens but quickly added, "only to keep up our morale.'" Women have no place in a res taurant kitchen because they can't handle the job either phys ically or mentally, he said. Not Disciplined Enough . Women never can achieve the qualifications necessary to run the huge kitchens in a place like oursy'- he said. "They are fine in a kitchen where two or three people are served. They can easily handle the small quan tities of ingredients necessary for' these meals. But when it comes to larger amounts, they can not be relied upon." What woman can handle suc cessfully a half-dozen 25-pound rib roasts which are usually being prepared at one time in our kitchen?" he said. "Or toss around the huge pots and pans wo have to use? Besides that, Winkler said, wo men aren't disciplined enough to make good cooks. They are too prone to make frequent changes according to their own likes and dislikes he says. "When we make a change, it's because we've found patrons want it that way." Not As Creative Women aren't as good as men at creating a new dish or setting down its accurate ingredients, Winkler said. Too often her re cipe reads "a pinch of this" or "a little of that." THE SCIENCE OF COMPOUNDING DRUGS IS OUR SPECIALTY!

But Winkler's real contention is that "most women just don't like to cook. They find iff a bother and a nuisance, and that's one reason for the tremendous amount of canned and frozen foods being sold today." ' It s only for special occasions that a woman will concentrate on the preparation of outstand ing meals," he said. "Most chefs prepare meals with the skill and care of a dedicated artist. They have the patience and desire to create perfection. This is a state of mind that women cannot duo licate and in most cases don't care to." Applesauce Preferred Like Mother Made Madison, Wis. (in Like most other food, the best apple sauce is apparently the kind mo ther used to make. At least that's the conclusion of consumers tested by Univer sity of Wisconsin food experts. People were offered every kind of applesauce to choose from. ranging from the coarsest to smoothest textures and from very tart to sweet. . There was no. consistent pref erence, the researchers reported except that people tend to pick applesauce most like that their mothers used to make.
