2 L THURSDAY, APRIL II. 1963 MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Peed Editor No Need Taxing Imagination; Put Money in Bael, Pork There's good news in the meat markets as we take stock of current assets while recovering Irom recent raids on our wallets. We've made some clever deductions and discover that there's an abun dance of beef - that good red meat that is every man's fav orite. The lowest prices noted on beef in a long, long time put it back on the menu often. There's plenty of pork too with resultant lower prices on these popular products, both fresh and smoked. As reported earlier, there's the biggest lamb crop in recent, years and exceptional values to be found among the older, heavi er, meatier lamb cuts. For many, meal planning begins with meat. From friendly frank to sizzling steak, meat gives generously of fine flavor and nourish mont. Every bite offers a serving of complete protein. Protein Is the great builder of the body - the food cssen tial every one needs for healthy growth of muscle and tissue, for sustaining every cell and nerve. Once the meat for the meal Is planned, the rest comes easy from long association. If you're the fortunate owner of a freezer, watch for seasonal ly low prices on favorite cuts as time goes by, put in a sup ply of futures. New Meal Cuts. Do try new meat cuts. Theres good eat ing in braised oxtails, beef brisket, sweatbreads, rolled shoulder roasts, flank steak, braunschwelger, tongue. Almond Glared Hem Handsome Meal Planning This glazed ham was so handsome when we had it ready for the table that we took its picture for no other reason than to make you hungry for it. The orunchiness of roasted diced almonds top ping the glaze of dark brown sugar and lemon juice does the obvious thing for gener ous slice of ham. Then we ar ranged a ring of canned peach halves with more of the glaze drizzled over. Six servings from thick slice of ham. 1 1-pound can cling peach halves V4 cup dark brown sugar, packed 1 tablespoon lemon Juice V4 teaspoon dry mustard 1 slice ready-to-eat ham (Hi pounds about an inch thick) 'i cup roasted diced almonds Drain peaches, reserving one-half cup syrup. Combine syrup, brown sugar, lemon juice and mustard for glaze. Place ham on broiler rack about five Inches from heat. .Broil until lightly browned on lop; turn. Place peach halves cut side up on rack around ham. Brush peaches and ham gen erously with glaze and broil until peaches are delicately browned. Cover ham with al monds and drizzle remaining glaze over ham and peaches. Itclurn to broiler a few minutes to toast almonds light ly. Imaginative Seasonings For Popular Pot Roast About .15 minutes before your pot roast of beef Is done, add one or more of the follow- In?: Vogntahlos. Tared or srrap ed carrots, peeled onions, B talkl of celery cut into two Inch lengths;, pared medium size potatoes, and other mild flavored, vegetables in whole or Rood size pieces. Curry. Mix one tablespoon of curry powder and one tea spoun sugar with one-half cup of water. Stir Into broth around roast. Tomato. Add two cups cook ed tomatoes, one teaspoon prepared mustard and one onion, peeled and sliced. Accompaniments for Fresh Roast Pork Plentiful pork at very reas onable prices cause us to put it in the menu more often. Serve fresh roast of pork with sweet flavored vegetable or fruit but serve a tart flavored food as a salad or relish in the same course. Suggested companion food! arc: red cinnamon apples or pears; pickled peaches, apples, pears or orange slices, canned or cubed pineapple, baked bananas: spiced priiurs or ap ricots; thick cranberry sauce, jelly or an India relish. Suggested companion veg etables are sweet potatoes, squash, peas, carrots, aspara gus, onions, broccoli, celery, turnips, rutabagas and of course potatoes which are es pecially plentiful and of good quality rilit now. Avoid sauces on the fruit and, vegetables if these arc used on the platter or to garnish the roast, choose gay colon thai make the platter pirture-pretty. Braised Meals This is the modern term for an old-fashioned method of making a great many cuts of meat very delicious. Moist j heat is used in this type of I cooking. Less tender roasts and steak of beef and lamb are best when braised. Pork and veal chops and steaks need moist heat to cook them thoroughly, yet keep them juicy and flavorful. Pork and veal must be well done when served. Braising meats are dipped into seasoned flour, browned in a very little fat in a skillet, kettle or other heavy pan. When meat is well browned, a little water or other liquid is added. A cover is used. Slow cooking on surface heat or in the oven makes these meats fine fare. DaLuxe Hamburgers Broil hamburgers to your taste for doneness then add one of the following: two tablespoons butter mixed with two tablespoons Blue cheese; two tablespoons but ter mixed with two table spoons chopped chives - or with two tablespoons catsup or prepared mustard. Iranians Like Kebab (Lamb on Skewers) The current abundance of lamb along with the immi nence of outdoor cookery, make this recipe for an Iranian specialty a good selec tion for this week.

Contract Approved For Concession at Howard Prairie Lake Two members of the Jack son county court approved the revised five-year contract for the Howard Prairie lake concession, but the third member. County Commission er Edwin Taylor abstained yesterday. "I don't feel Ihe ronlracl is improved much, but I'm not criticizing anybody and not the concessionaire." Taylor commented. "I just don't feel Ihe coun ty is getting its fair share of the gross receipts at 4 per cent. Up until this year it was 10 per cent. The concession aire was allowed the lower percentage with the idea he would dispose of the garbage (in the developed recreation area). Now the county subsi dizes him on this by paying him for It," Taylor explained. Made From Concession County Judge Earl M.

Taylor said he had not read all of it. The five-year contract is from Jan. 1, 1962, to Dec. .10, 1964. The bureau of reclama tion and national park service had questioned the conces sionaire collecting the over night camping fees and the cost of maintenance and also requested some technical changes in the contract. Representatives of the fed eral agencies appeared satis fied however, when the coun ty judge explained the main tenance cost applies to the whole developed area and not the camp grounds alone. Signs and receipts for over night camping charges will more clearly designate the area as operated by Jackson county, it was agreed earlier. pbUST M you'll be PROUDER of your CHOWDER.' how do you answer the hunger in a child's eyes, if he lives thousands of miles away?
