Feeding the Family Crater FFA Chapter Membersto Be Interviewed for State Posts By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Sure and Hera' a Foine 1 Meal; Corned Beef and Cabbage Actually we've never heard of an Irishman from County Cork or Donegal who ever heard of corned beef and cabbage, but a man named Jiggs and his wife Maggie, reputedly of Irish descent, kept an entire generation aware of its exceptional qual ities. Corned beef is brisket of beef that has been cured in a well-seasoned brine. Good quality corned beef brisket will have about one-fourth as much fat as lean. For finest flavor long, slow moist cook ing is the recommended pro cedure. Cabbage is one of the best vegetable buys right now. Look for heads that are reas onably solid and have a fresh green color. One and one half pounds will serve four. Unlike the accompanying corned beef, cook cabbage only until tender and still sort of crispy. 1 4-pound piece of corned beef 1 solid head cabbage Place corned beef in ket tle and cover with water. Simmer slowly about four hours or until tender. Do not boil. Cut cabbage into eight wedges. About 15 minutes be fore serving time, add cab bage to corned beef and cook, uncovered, 10 to 15 minutes or until just tender. Ic Cream Bermuda This glamorous dessert is prepared right at the table. Place a scoop of chocolate ice cream on individual des sert plates. For each serving, peel and slice one-half of a ripe banana into a chafing dish. Light the burner. Add two teaspoons granulated su gar and one-third ounce Tri ple Sec to the bananas. Stir occasionally. When sugar be gins to carmelize, pour in one ounce of rum. Ignite liquor.

Many Good Week-End Buys Aid March Meal Planning Though the calendar pro claims the arrival of Spring as a still-to-be-looked-for-ward-to event, we've been reveling in springtime abun dance of good things to eat for some time. Fish and shellfish. Lenten season interest continues to center on fish and shellfish. Frozen supplies are unusually large for this season; many are genuine bargains- in good eating. These include whit ing, ocean perch fillets, cod and halibut fillets, shrimp, salmon steaks, haddock fil lets, and, of course, fish sticks. Remember to cook fish quickly or it will toughen. Cabbage and Pot aloes: March markets feature fresh cabbage at a few pennies a pound to be cooked gently and quickly' and seasoned with butter or margarine, salt and pepper or with sour cream. There are those who add a few whole cloves, car away seeds, a bit of sage or paprika by way of something d i f f,e r e n t and delicious. Shredded cabbage makes a fine cole slaw any day and can be happily combined with any and all salad greens. Potatoes are headed back to the top of the plentiful list as supplies of both "old crop" potatoes as well as new pota- Central Point - Crater High school Future Farmers of America chapter members will be interviewed by the nominations committee for a state office at the state FFA convention in Corvallis next week.
