12 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or. TKutidiy, April 7, I960 Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT rood Idiror Lamb-orama Reveals Lola of Good Eating Wt take a "lamboramlc" view of meats for enjoyment at this season; find that west coasters and east coasters (New Yorkers, actually) eat far and away more lamb than people of other areas. Just lucky, we guess. A lesson in lamb logic reveals that there's a lot of good eating both fore and aft besides those elegant legs and fancy loin chops. But first we're going to make a note or two in case you've lamb in mind for Easter Sun day or other special occasion. Thick sirloin chops may be quickly broiled, seasoned with salt, pepper and a touch of dill weed or with a new Lamb Garni to be found among the herbs and spices. We'd garnish this with lemon wedges, pret tied up with finely chopped parsley. An eight rib rack of lamb Is a perfect oven roast for a family of four. If more are to be served, why not two or three of these racks of lamb? Very showy. We'd serve kets. Choose fancy cuts for special occasions, less fancy for the family and we'll tell you why. They're identical in tenderness, good lamb flavor. Roast Lamb Cuts. Roast leg, frenched leg, loin, bone less loin, boneless sirloin ribs, crown, square cut shoulder, cushion shoulder, rolled shoul der, breast, rolled breast, lamb loaf. Gourmet Roast, Make deep gashes in meat and fill with a mixture of finely chopped and mashed garlic and an chovy fillets or anchovy paste. Broiling Cuts. For broiling, panbroiling or frying, choose loin sirloin chops, leg steaks, loin chops, English chops, rib chops, shoulder chops, patties. Braise and Simmer. Bar gain prices mark cuts for long, slow cooking. Choose neck slices, breast, rolled breast, riblets, shanks, stew meat which comes from sev eral sections of the lamb. Lamb Seasoning Lamb, being mild and ten der, needs the enhancement of herbs and spices. Perhaps spiced apricots or peaches tnat ig wny major spice with this. If it's to be a festive leg of lamb, we suggest rubbing It with a mixture of one quarter teaspoon leaf oregano, one-half teaspoon sweet basil leaf, one teaspoon dry mus tard and one crushed bay leaf. Or, taking it easy, use the new Lamb Garni which blends rosemary, tarragon, savory and oregano in one convenient spice shelf jar. We suggest that the carver slice the lamb thin; that It be served with minted pineapple or mint Jelly. Watch for Specials All cuts of lamb are sood buys and some are genuine bargains. Take a look at the ads in this newspaper and at the display cases in the mar- maker recently introduced a Lamb Garni, so labeled for convenience alongside the oth er spices on the shelves. Lamb chops take to curry powder, dill seed, flavor salt, smoke flavor, Worcestershire sauce, lamb garni. Lamb roast favors basil, caraway seed, curry powder, chop suey sauce, cinnamon, fennel, flavor salt, garlic, lemon, mace, mushroom sauce, oregano, rosemary, soy sauce, thyme, Worcestershire sauce and lamb garni. Barbecued lamb likes cay enne, garlic, ginger, onion, to mato, vinegar, lamb garni. Lamb Reminders Lamb should always be cooked at low temperature. Roast in 300 degree oven. No searing! Leave "fell" on leg. Lamb should be served either hot or cold-never lukewarm.

Cover and heat slowly about 10 minutes. In Original Package. Heat rolls in package in oven at 350 degrees about 15 minutes. Oyster Pan Roast April Specialty April is a fine month for oysters. And we just remem bered the grand manner in which the Grand Central Oyster Bar in New York serves Oyster Pan Roast. This is a single serving, mind you, worthy of the head of the house but you'll probably scale It down for the rest of the family. Piano in a deep Dan, 10 freshly opened oysters, one pat of butter, one taDiespoon of chill sauce, one teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, a few drops of lemon juice, one quarter cup of oyster liquor, celery salt and paprika. Let the above mixture cook for about' one minute, stirring continuously while cooking.
