FREE PARKING Extension Agent Explains Beef Tenderizing Process Mrs. Lee Sheehan, Jackson county extension agent for home economics, today issued a statement explaining the new ProTen tendered beef which is being Introduced in this area this week. Mrs. Shee han states that one of the large meat processing companies has developed a new method to tenderize beef by the addi tion of natural enzymes and adds that these enzymes do not change the flavor of the beef nor are they a seasoning. 'They only tenderize the tissues of the beef," the home economist declared. "As homemakers know, beef has been previously placed in two categorles-the tender cuts such as steaks, standing rib roasts and rolled rib roasts art cooked by the dry heat method such as oven roasting, broiling, charcoal grilling and rotlsserle," Mrs. Sheehan ex plained. "The other group, the less-tender cuts of beef, in clude the. chuck roasts, round steak,-blade roasts or steaks, stew meat, brisket and many Others. This second group has always t required the. moist heat method of cooking. -This is done by adding a small amount of liquid, covering and cooking slowly on top of (ha range or in the oven. , ' "The -- ProTen tenderizing process if not a method to up grade beef; it simply makes good beef more versatile and all grades and cuts more ten der. In the top . grades, it means "that cuts from the chuck and round, formerly considered best when cooked by moist heat, can now be cooked by dry heat. , r "This new products will be especially valuable to home makers with the beginning of the outdoor cooking season -now homemakers no longer need to buy more expensive cuts In-order to broil their meats on an outdoor broiler. "In lower grades, these cuts are still best cooked by moist heat but will have a more de pendable tenderness," she concluded.
