COOKING OF FISH Fish make fine eating when quickly
baked, broiled, pan-broiled, steamed or poached. They're
also very good when given this Spanish treatment in a
fish pie enhanced with almonds, onions, tomatoes, garlic
and paprika. Recipes are included in today's food columns.

N Such Thing as Tough Fish;
Most People Overcook This
Food
From the Pacific and At
lantic oceans, from gulfs,
from fresh water lakes and
streams come fish, most plent
iful of all natural foods. Each
variety of fish and shellfish
has a distinct flavor brought
out when cooked. ,We state
unequivocally that most peo
ple overcook fish
There's no such thing as
a tough fish. Effortless swim
ming develops no fish mus
cles. Fish needs cooking only
long enough to develop the
flavor, coagulate the protein
Only overcooked fish is flav
orless, dry, tough or rubbery.
Many people thoroughly en
joy fish in restaurants; are
often critical of home-cooked
fish and properly so. Restaur
ants have "fish" cooks who
are skilled in cooking it just
enough to enable the flesh
to be flaked easily from the
bones leaving the fish moist
and tender. You too can do
it. " ,
Fish Variety I
Through the year at least
180 edible varieties of fish
are available in local markets.
They come fresh, quick froz
en, canned, smoked and dried
to give menu variety at rea
sonable cost. Resolve now to
look over varieties displayed
in local fish markets; give
family new taste treats.
' Basic Fish Cookery
There are five basic meth
olds of fish cookery: baking,
broiling, pan-frying, steaming
and poaching. You can also
oven-fry and French-fry and
make many a fine specialty.
How to Bak Fish. Use fil
lets, steaks or large whole
fish, dressed. Place in butter
ed, shallow baking pan. Baste
with melted butter seasoned
with salt, peppr, lemon juice
and minced onion. Bake at
350 degrees 10 to 12 minutes
for fillets, 20 to 25 minutes
for steaks or small fish, about
40 minutes for large fish.
How to Boil Fish. Place
fillets or steaks in pre-heated
broiler (on aluminum foil is
good idea) two to three inch
es from heat source. Broil
fillets about 10 minutes with
out turning; steaks or whole
fish five to eight minutes on
each side, basting with melt
' ed butter seasoned with salt,
pepper and if you wish, chop
ped dill pickle, minced onion
or dried savory.
How to Pan-Fry Fish. Dip
fillets, steaks or small whole
fish in egg beaten with .two
tablespoons beer or cold wa
ter. Coat with fine dry bread
crumbs seasoned with salt,
pepper and paprika. Fry over
moderate heat in" skillet con
taining melted butter or short
ening to cover bottom well.
Allow three to five minutes
on each side.
How to Poach Fish. Place
fillets or steaks in skillet with
boiling water that barely cov
ers fish. Season with parsley,
celery, onion, peppercorns or
lemon juiceSimmer, covered,
until easily flaked with fork
10 minutes or, less.
How to Steam Fish. Use
large whole fish or steaks.
Fill deep saucepan or Dutch
oven with twb inches water
adding seasoning as for poach
ing. When water boils, place
fish wrapped in cheescloth
on rack above water level in
pan. Cover tightly and let
water simmer to steam fish
about 10 minutes.
How to Oven-Fry Fish. Pre
pare fish as for pan-frying.
Place side-by-side in buttered,
shallow baking pan. Dot with
butter. Bake in preheated 525
degree oven 15 to 20 minutes
or until easily flaked with
fork. If desired add dried
rosemary, grated cheese,
minced onion or dry mustard
to crumbs.
How to French-Fry Fish.
Use scallops, shrimp or small
-whole fillets. t Prepare as for
pan-frying or use a fritter
batter. Drop seafood, a few
piecs at a time, into deep fat
heated to 375 degrees for
-"V-v- three to five minutes. Drain

Chack Lemon Supplies. The
Lenton season with its menu
emphasis on fish and shell
fish put lemons on the buy
ing list more often. Generous
wedges are favored as ac
companiment. Spanish Fish Pie
Is Lenten Treat
The Spanish call this "pas
tel de pescado". It is a great
favorite with them, and hav
ing made it, we realize why
For six generous servings
use IVz . pounds fish fillets
Mashed potatoes line casser
ole.
3 tablespoons olive 'or salad
oil
V4 cup slivered almonds
1 cup chopped onions
4 cups diced fresh tomatoes
Garlic salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon paprika
IVi pounds fish fillets
4 cups seasoned mashed pota
Heat oil irt a large sauce
pan. Add almonds and fry
until golden. Remove and set
aside. Add onions and saute
until limp and transparent.
Add tomatoes, garlic salt and
black pepper. Cook 10 min
utes, stirring frequently.
Mince and mash one-quarter
of the fish. Cut the remain
ing fish in one inch piecs.
Add both to tomato mixture
along with the almonds.
Cook 10 minutes, stirring
frequently. Line bottom and

mashed potatoes. Fill with
tomato and fish mixture. Ring
top with remaining mashed
potatoes, swirling attractive
ly. Bake in preheated moder
ate oven, 375 degres, until
potatoes brown. Garnish with
paprika.
Paprika, Red Jewel
Of Spic Family
Radiant red paprika is to
all light colored foods what
lipstick is to a glamour girl's
face; a bright focal point- of
allure, a cosmetic in spice. It
has eye appeal. Fourth in pop
ularity in the spice parade,
America's paprika consum
tion exceeds 10 million
pounds a year. Much of it
goes into canned and proces
sed foods. Today we get pap
rika from Spain and Cali
fornia. Paprika enlivens all sorts
of potato and egg dishes, cot
tage cheese and creamed
soups and sauces. It adds lilt
when dashed over a green
salad. It gives rosy tinge to
gelatine salads. Stirred into
the batter of fried chicken it
makes for a rich toasty gold
en color. It enhances fish and
shellfish, stews, gravies and
casseroles, mashed potatoes
and cheese rarebits.
Fish Garnishes
Are Important
The importance of garnish
es cannot be over-emphasized
when it comes to fish serving.
A dash of color or a touch
of garnish adds drama, color,
texture. We suggest these:
Cooked whole or sliced
beets . . . Carrot tops, sticks,
curls or shreds . . . Celery
tops, hearts, sticks or curls
. . . Green or red pepper
sticks or rings . . . Cucumber
slices or sticks . . . Hard-cooked
eggs in slices, wedges or
grated yolks . . . Lemon slices
or wedges . . . Lettuce leaves
or shredded lettuce. . .Pap
rika sprinkled sparingly. . .
Parsley or watercress, either
in sprigs or chopped . . .
Whole, sliced or chopped
pickles ... Radishes, whole,
sliced or roses.
Vegetable Plates
The Lenten season brings
vegetables plates to the table
more often. Choose vegetables
for variety in color, flavor
and texture. Cook them quick1
ly to retain full nutritive
values; then season them in
terestingly. Tomato cheese rarebit on
toast points, buttered aspar
agus and a cloe slaw with
sour cream dressing.
Green peppers stuffed with
macaroni ' and cheese, with
tuna or salmon; pickled beets,
green beans with dried onion
flakes or chopped onion.

Portland Mural
Sketches Secret
Portland OPI The Port of
Portland commissioners and
the Portland Art Commission
today declined to bare for
public view the sketches be
ing studied for a mural to
be installed in the new Port
land airport terminal.
So far the public has seen
only black and white repro
ductions of a color sketch pre
pared by Portland artist Louis
Bunce, a muralist of national
stature. The contemporary ab
straction designed to convey
the spatial movement of flight
was first rejected by port
commissioners who said the
terminal mural should be un
derstandable to everyone.
The commissioners later
withdrew their rejection pend
ing consultation with the
Portland Art Commission.
Wednesday, Richard Turner,
chairman of the art commis
sion, promised his agency
would do "a very objective
job" before deciding whether
to recommend the Bunce mu
ral for the terminal. The com
mission, he said, would study
the mural behind closed
doors.
DEAR ANNABELLE: I am seventeen, a senior in high
school and everyone tells me I am a good cook and
will make someone a fine wife. They say my NULADE
Spanish omelets are out of this world. I m also rather
strong for a girl; the fellows all call me "Muscles."
I like to watch TV wrestling and know a lot of holds.
The other day coming from the store, a boy I like was
teasing me and I dropped and cracked a dozen
NULADE eggs. It made me so mad I put an Indian
death hold on him and made him eat them right there.
.Vow lie won't speak to me. CONFUSED.
DEAR CONFUSED: Most boys like their NULADE
eggs iried, scrambled, or as the case may be, in Spanish
omelets. Even though you dropped the NULADE eggs
and cracked them, that's no excue fsor losing your
temper. For goodness' sake, keep those muscles up your
sleeve. You'll have plenty of opportunity to use them
after you are married. Invite that young man over for
one of your special omelets. Someday you may be
fixing him a daily breakfast of local farm-fresh
NULADE eggs.
.
CONFIDENTIAL: You owe it to your omelet to use
NULADE eggs. If your grocer doesn't have them, ask
him to call Oregon Egg Producers, SPring 2-2621.
