HMTnIr Hash
Family Favorite
Next "time you have beef
and potatoes, plan enough
leftovers for this heavenly
hash which is a long-time
favorite in many families.
Wilted lettuce or sweet and
sour cabbage are very good
with this. Four generous serv
ings. V cup chopped onion
23 cup chopped green pep
per .
1M tablespoons shortening
2 cups chopped cooked
- beef
1V4 cups chopped cooked po
tatoes 2A cup water
3 tablespons catsup
3 tablespoons chili sauce
1 tablespoon worcester-
- shire sauce
. Vs teaspoon chopped garlic
1 teaspoon salt
teaspoon chili powder
Saute onion and pepper in
shortening until golden
brown. Add meat, potatoes
and water. Combine other in
gredients with meat mixture.
Bake in 400 degree oven, 70
minutes or until brown.
Herbed Halibut
The commonest fish dish
can be changed into a gour
met's delight by the use of
herbs. Favorite herbs to use
with fish are parsley, chives
which now come fresh-frozen
and chopped ready for use,
fennel, marjoram. Remember
to blend the herbs judiciously
and add them sparingly be
cause all herbs have a strong
er flavor after cooking. Six
servings of this sauce which
is ideal for plentiful coast-
caught halibut.
2 pounds halibut steaks or
fillets
. Herb sauce
Buttered bread crumbs
Place halibut in a well
greased baking dish. Com
bine one cup hot water, one
bouillon cube, one-fourth cup
butter or other fat, melted,
one clove garlic, minced, two
tablespoons chopped green
onions or chives, one table
spoon chopped parsley, one
half teaspoon prepared mus
tard, one tablespoon ketchup,
one - half teaspoon vinegar,
one-half teaspoon salt, dash of
pepper; heat to boiling. Com
bine two tablespoons corn
starch and 2 tablespoons wa
ter; add to sauce and cook
until thick, stirring constant
ly. Pour over halibut; top
with buttered bread crumbs.
Broiler Meal Combinations
Here are some good com
binations for broiler meals
certain to please; well bal
anced, they have color, tex
ture and taste appeal.
Sliced cooked ham with ap
ple rings and cooked sweet po
tato slices.
Corn-filled tomatoes, cook
ed parsnips, beef patties and
onion slices.
Salmon steaks, cooked
sliced white potatoes, grape
fruit slices.
Lamb chops, whole cooked
carrots, orange slices.
Bacon, liver, sliced onions
or skewers. Thick slices of
cooked winter squash, canned
peach halves.
Cubes of fish, bacon, onion
and pepper rings alternating
on skewersT Thick slices of
T-bone or other tender
steak, frozen peas, onion
slices, apricot halves, cooked
potato slices.
Gourmet Tricks
"Food without seasoning is
like talk without reasoning
said Crosby Gaige, noted epi
cure, and we agree. There is
glamour in the very thought
of spices redolent of adven
ture, exploration, romance.
Heat canned vegetable soup
with a few cloves. When soup
comes to simmering point, re
move the cloves and serve the
soup. Gives a mystical under
tone of flavor.

When you're boiling beef,
add a small onion, a pinch of
ginger, a few cloves and a
bay leaf to turn a gourmet
trick. ,
Put cooked spinach through
the grinder; add a little stock
and nutmeg and thicken ever
so slightly in the re-heating.
Make tiny cubes of day-old
bread. Fry them in bacon
drippings or other fat; drain
and sprinkle over the pureed
spinach.
A touch of cinnamon in
lamb stew gives it the Syrian
touch. Syrians use cinnamon
in a pepper shaker on the
table, like we do pepper (and
of course they call it a cinna
mon shaker). It's fun experi
menting with this different
flavor in meats.
Retail Food Prices
Lower as Income Rises
There's an interesting para
dox in taking a food view for
'60. Retail prices generally
are expected to average a lit
tle lower than last year. On
the other hand, consumer in
come probably will be record
high and, because of it, con
sumers are likely to step up
purchases of the more expen
sive foods and be willing to
pay more for "convenience"
foods. Convenience foods, of
course, are those where others
have done most of the work;
provided the built-in maid
service, as we used to say.
So what happens? We will
be paying moie for food, but
the foods on the famed Index
for the cost of living will be
costing less. Looked at anoth
er way, it means that we could
live better for less, but that
we are likely to spend more
and consider it a bargain.
If you're budget-minded, a
little more than a fifth of the
average income per capita af
ter taxes will be spent for
food; the larger the income, j
the smaller the percentage, of
course-and that's what makes
averages. There will be plen
ty of meat, poultry and dairy
products which are major
menu items.
Best Buys
Egg supplies are high and
the quality good because the
colder weather helps keep
them cold. A grade A egg
can become a grade B egg in
a day or two at room temper
ature. And that should remind
you to refrigerate them the
minute you get them home.
Meat supplies are excellent
with good buys in pork and
beef, and there's good news
for west coast lamb fanciers
with specials on many cuts.
Poultry. Both chickens and
turkeys continue plentiful,
make satisfying eating wheth
er the family is a two-some or
planning a home-coming.
Dairy Products. Local milk
sheds provide an abundance
of protein-rich, calcium, rich
milk. There's plenty of local
ly made cottage cheese, sour
cream, sweet creams, butter
milk. Good buys in cheddar
cheese. and many of the fancy
cheeses.
Fruit and Vegetables. Name
it and local markets have it!
