Spiced Orange Glased Perk Chops . .Pork is not only a rich and delicious meat but is also the meat richest in B vita mins. Pork chops often are braised to insure their being thoroughly done rather than overdone outside and under done inside, s result that high heat sometimes produces. Here we bake them to per fection in zesty sauce, each 4 servings: 4 end-cut pork chops Salt and pepper V4 cup water 2 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon cornstarch i teaspoon cinnamon V teaspoon nutmeg 6 whole cloves V cup orange juice 4 half slices of orange Sprinkle pork ehops with salt, pepper and paprika, Brown chops thoroughly over medium heat. Add water: cov er closely and simmer until tender, about 50 minutes. Turn several times during cooking and add additional water' if necessary. When chops are tender, re move from skillet and spoon off fat in pan. Mix sugar, cornstarcn, salt and spices, blend in orange juice; add to brown sauce in skillet and stir -constantly over moderate heat until sauce is slightly thickened. Return chops to sauce; place orange slice on top of each chop; cover and simmer five minutes. Olallie Berries " Those bright black, med ium size, firm berries you're seeing in the market are. Ol allies, a cross between Black Logan and Young berries (named for Mr. Logan and Mr. Young). Of Oregon ori gin, bred cooperatively by USDA and Oregon -Agricul tural Experiment Station, they thrive best in California where acreage is increasing right along.. . : They're superb eaten fresh with sweet or sour cream; good in pies, puddings, tarts, ice cream, muffins. They're good stewed alone or in com bination with other berries. Enjoy Olallies as a sauce over desserts. Dairy Products, V Berries in Spotlight s Dairy products offer lots of food value for the money; lend themselves to easy and economical meals; rate more attention as we continue to celebrate June Dairy Month, month of maximum produc tion. A pitcher of milk on the table and offered between meals will step up the chil 1 dren's milk drinking which f is desirable because statistics prove that many children ate ' short on milk's many nutri " ents: Many cheese being special i ed, encourage main dish mak- ing. Cottage cheese is versa : tile, often enjoyed "as is" as well as in combination with J fruits and vegetables. ,Ice - cream is an ideal way to get more milk into the family r diet; more calcium in their ?.. bones, and teeth, l Poultry Bargain Priced Poultry of all kinds in all shapes (pieces) and sizes con tinue plentiful, bargain-priced for good eating. Consider fry ers, broilers, roasters and stewers. Turkeys come in all sizes; can make several days good eating. Eggs continue in abundance with lowest prices in 18 years.
