Quick Frozen
Apples Used
Urbana. 111. (IP) Fresh, hot
apple pie no longer is a seasonal
delicacy.
Frances O. Van Duyne, Uni
versity of Illinois foods research
staff member, said that quick
freezing can make this favorite
year round treat.
Jonathan, Staymen, Winesap
and Rome Beauty apples are
recommended for pies.
The pies can be frozen either

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.

at 450 degrees for 20 to 30
minutes. Cool and serve.

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."

"Men have more i orderly
minds. If they mean an eighth
of a teaspoonful of spice, they
say so."
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.
