SnOwballs, Coffee Sauce

Now coffee adds it's tantaIizing
flavor to new dessert sauce Cof-
fee sauce is ideal to dress up plain
cake, custard or ice cream and, when
served with white, fluffy SNOWFALL
pudding, the combination is ire
sistible
Extra strong coffee favor is de-
sirable for this sauce, and it is i'm
portant to brew the coffee by the
method given in the recipe. For
full-bodied flavor, use vacuum
packed, glassed coffee of medium
grind, which is strained through
cheesecloth.
This coffee sauce may be made in
advance and kept in covered con-
tainer in the refrigerator for two
or three days. A slight separation
may occur, but this does not i'm
pair the favor or consistency of the
sauce. Just stir sufficiently to re-
blend.

used to season the food they are
lnnocently enjoying at that very
moment.
1t has been said-and this is tick
lish ground-that women are more
loath to change their dietary spots
than are men. The fact is that the
roaming male, in great number of
cases, displays more interest in seek
ing out different dishes and making
use Of odd foods than does his fem
mime counterpart The ladies may
counter with the statement that.
given his own way, a man will order
steak. French frieds and apple pie
nine times out of ten. Well he may
they are all good eating. But l
think you will find that, given a
wider choice, there will be a tend
ency to investigate some of the more
unusual items on the menu. The
steak, French frieds and apple pie
selection may have become defense
mechanism in this country, for they
are three dishes that one is rela-
lively sure of getting properly pre-
pared!
1t will be interesting to see what
viewpoint the returning Servicemen
have on this point. At first, they
will, Of course, yearn for all the
dishes their memory has made dou-
bly, delightful during their trying
months overseas. But later on, per-
haps, they will want to try some of
the connections encountered over
there and new, diverse thread will
be added to Americas cuisine. The
ladies had better be prepared to hop
on the band wagon. There's moth
ing so determined as man in
search of special and long remem-
bered dish!
So, let's resolve, among the other
more important matters, that in
l945 we'll try to have a more flexible
attitude toward what we eat, that we
will seek farther afield for new and
unusual dishes and we will try, with
real interest, the items that hitherto
we have considered unworthy of our
attention. 1t should make for a lot
happier atmosphere on the home
! front, at any rate!

amount one wants for the table and
always have a nice looking butter

for storing hamburg, sausage, vege-

ice box for they can be cut to
amount you have Last, but not

Report to the Housewife

The picture in local food markets
at this moment is one of bewilder-
ment and very light supplies. Pend
ing definite instructions from the
powers that be, many merchants
have been confused about the new
rationing changes-and their Gus
toners have been even more SO. AS
the days 60 by, however, this general
fog should be dissipated, and the
rationing procedure start functioning
smoothly once more.
Added to the red tape" situation,
we have the usual seasonal one of
sparsely stocked between holiday"
markets. This week most housewives
are expected, traditionally, to use
up the leftoverS and the fact that
maybe you couldn't get anything big
enough to make leftovers available
this Christmas doesn't change the
picture much. Meats in particular
are very light in supply, with few
frozen beef tongues, some of the less
interesting cuts of beef and an oc-
casional find" in lamb or veal about
the only items being offered by most
markets. A new shipment of the
Gruyere-type cheese has reached
town, which should help a bit in
planning meatlesS meal or two.
Fish, too, goes into the doldrums
between Christmas and New Year;
the fishermen knock off work for
the holiday, in a number of in
stances, and the severe cold weather
discourages large catch. About the
only reasonably plentiful seafood
you'll find are king and Spanish
mackerel. few of the little pan fish
and some shrimp, and the filleted
items.
Poultry, of course, is way, way
below the demand There is prac-
tically none, with the exception of
very small supply of frozen stock
being shipped in from Western areas.
FreslI eggs continue light, although
dealers hoped for an increase along
about December IS. Now many of
them are doubtful as to just when
the break will come.
Although some markets find
themselves rather short of fresh
produce and have had to resort to
"carryover stock for the weeks

some mushrooms in that She also
set to boiling some eggs and cooked
them until they were hard.
I never knew the exact proper
tions in her recipes. She cooked by
ear" and was jealous about letting
any one watch her at work. But
think she used about two hard
cooked sliced eggs to each cup Of
turkey meat. When the eggs were
sliced and ready and the mushrooms
done, they were put, with the drip
pings and onion, into the turkey and
gravy, all heated through once more.
a dash of sherry added, checked for
salt and pepper and served poured
over mammoth biscuits, hot, split
and buttered. And what dish it
was!
Sometimes Mamie reversed proce-
dure and instead Of putting the
"olio" on top of the biscuits, she put
the biscuits on top of the "olio, "
in the form of a crust. The turkey
mixture was poured into a creased
baking dish and the biscuit dough
spread over the top, pricked with a
fork and popped into the oven until
the crust was delicate golden
brown.
Another way of using leftover
turkey, relished by most men. is to
serve grilled turkey legs. (This, of
course, If you've had a dainty group
for the main turkey dinner and the
legs were left whole) The legs are
removed and, with a sharp knife, the
flesh is split to the bone and then
cut carefully away from the bone
so that the meat remains in one
piece. This is stuffed well with left
over stuffng, which has been en-
livened with bit of added season.

Hereby RESOLVED.
BY CaSweL adams

There was time when New Year
resolutions were the order of the
day and every one from grandpa tc
Hector the pup made string OF
them a mile long They were, of
course, fated to be broken within a
disgracefully short time, but the
making of them acted as whole
some clearing house of shortcom-
ings and minor faults developed
during the year, and probably the
airing of these did a lot toward
eradicating the worst!
So it might be a good idea to turn
our attention to some of the errors
committed in the name of food and
kindred subjects. First and foremost,
many Of us might resolve that we
will stop gripping about the things
that are scarce or impossible to get,
and cheerfully get along with the
plenty that remains. Rationing and
scarcities have become the mainStay
of conversation that ones operation
used to be and. in general, the tone
is one of calamity. Which ism true
There are plenty of substitutes for
the missing luXuries.
A survey made recently disclosed
that much of this deprivation was
self-induced-that is, the complain
ers refused to change their eating
habits and try out the less familiar
items in the markets and on the
grocers' shelves. Just because they
always had eaten a certain grade of
meat, in particular cuts, they yelled
like a trodden-on pup when these
vanished from the scene-and could
not contemplate any alternative
without active illness. They never
had liked fish and they we're not
going to learn to like it now. de-
spite the fact that nutrition experts
the country over assured them of its
desirability and home economic
writer's pointed out its usefulness.
Use chicken fat instead of butter?
Never heard of such a thing! And
as for margarine-well, you should
hear some of the fanatics on the
subject, holding forth at dinner
against the product that has beer

Trim off all fat edges of ham and,
cut in narrow strips with kitchen

cubes. DO NOT put through food
chopper. Onion is optional, If used,
saute onions and celery in the butter
or margarine for 10 minutes, but do
not brown. Mix dressing thorough
ly, being careful not to stuff but just
to fill the bird.
I stuff my turkey the night before,
so the seasoning will permeate the
dressing. Home-baked bread makes
far better dressing, as it is far less
apt to become soggy I bake mine
2 days before I want to use it, and
do use the crust as that is the best
part of the bread.
Hope you like this real Southern
dressing!

supplies of the standard fruits and
vegetables. Even bananas-just a
few!-have been seen. Apples are in
good demand, with Staymans and
Delicious about the most popular.
Avocados are light in supply, but
there are plenty of good grapes from
California. Grapefruit and oranges
are adequate. but lemons continue
light. Tangerines, too, are scarce.
Good d'Anjou pears from Wash

apples from Florida are recon-

In the vegetable line we find that
WatercreSS, most greens, except
spinach; green peppers, cucumbers,
lima beans, peas, escarole, broccoli

Be cautious when packing your

or nail polish remover should never
