Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Plentiful Oregon-Grown Onions Giv Zest The onion in its many va rieties has been cultivated as an article of food from the earliest period of history. The Bible (Numbers 11:5) records that the Israelites complained to Moses as they were being led out of Egypt: "We remem ber the fish which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucum bers and the melons, and the leeks and the onions and the garlick." The onion family is a big one and has continued to add zest to menus through the centuries.

The Globe onions, yel low, white nd red varieties are generally strong while the the sweet Spanish, yellow and white varieties are mild Color alone is nd?5 an indi cator of taste. When using onions to sea son a recipe, the stronger yel low ones should be used. The milder ones are good served as a vegetable.
