Portuguese Study
Bronze Age Village

CARTAXO, Portugal - up -
Excavations have begun anew on
the. site Of former ones where trac-
es of a prehistoric Bronze Age set
Element were found some years ago.
The site is at villa Nova S. Perdo
where it is presumed that the VII
lage was destroyed by fire some
where around 1900 Be.
Excavations in 1947 showed that
in the centre Of the village or set
tlement there must. have been a
granary, for charred grains still ex-
listed. Slick arrows were also
found, hundreds of them having
their tips broken as if there had
been an attack on the village. I'm
der the layer of ashes many valu-
able archaeological objects have
been found, such as polished stone
hatchets, rounded hammers, sic
kles, blades, charred bone buttons.
etc. There are also hairpins show
ing Egyptian influence and pottery.
The excavations are under the dir
ectiOn of DR.. EugeniO Jalhay and

When putting foods in the refrig-

as the food has cooled, get it into

The Chef Saws

"Trifie" (as a dessert) always
makes me think of England, for it
has long been a favorite sweet in
that country. In our Colonial days,
housekeepers from "the old count
try" brought their favorite trifle
recipes with them and many Of them
are found in the old cookbooks Of
those days. Particularly in Virginia
and Maryland were trifies popular
and it Is interesting to see their
inclusion in the modern books on
Southern cookery.
A basic trifie is, of course, some
sort of cake soaked in cream and
custard and often spiked" with q
fruit brandy or wine. In my grand
mothers house the trifie always was
tipped up with a liberal dash of that
famous Cherry Bounce made every
year to the delight Of all callers.
But the traditional seasoning is
Madeira wine.
Here is the full recipe for grand
mothers version Of this dessert:
She would take sponge cake,
which had been baked in a deep
pan. She cut the center out of the
cake to make a shell. CBe careful
not to cut through the bottom)
Then she put the cake on platter
and slowly poured about . chpful
Evening star., 1948-06-17

of Cherry Bounce over it, letting 1t
soak in. Then the cake was permit
ted to stand for an hour at least.
Just before serving time, grand
mother filled the center Of the cake
with fresh or canned cherries, poured
2 cups Of thick cold boiled custard
over over them and topped the works
with swirls of whipped cream. The
addition Of the fruit was her idea
and 1t made q super special dessert.
However, the cake Is excellent when
filled with just the custard and
topped with cream.
In the Court and County Confec-
toner, London. ITO. there is found
a recipe for Trifie, which goes thus
Cover the bottom OF your dish
with Naples Biscuits, broke in
pieces, mackaroons and Ratafia
Cakes, just wet them all with Sack,
pour on q good boiled custard when
cold, then a whipt Syllabub over
that" So you can see that today's
version is not far removed from that
of hundreds Of years ago. Trifie is
also very much like that other Eng
lish favorite, "Tipsy Parson," which,
however. usually is made with stale
cake rather than one freshly baked
for the purpose.

Senate restaurant and the House OF
Representatives restaurant.
Now for q quick glance along the
market front before my space Is
gone. There are some nice canta-
loupes coming in from Georgia and
honey balls from California. The
quality of peaches is steadily i'm
proving, much better than the early
variety that is so lacking in flavor.
This is about the last week you'll
see many blackberries around.
Homegrown rhubarb continues to
be plentiful and reasonable fruit
buy. Corn. too, is becoming more
plentiful since more States are
shipping it. The price, however,
continues to stay rather high. Car
rots are extra good now and other
vegetables you'll find worthy Of
mention are green and lima beans,
lettuce, cucumbers, salad green's,
onions, peas, peppers, squash, to-
matoes and beets. Tuck some fresh
mint, lines and lemons in your
basket for long cooling drinks since
this bids fair to be a warm weekend.

Here and There: Save the left
over sirup from canned peaches for
glazing ham. To glaze a thick slice
of ham, first spread it with bit of
horseradish, mustard and brown
sugar and stud with a few whole
cloves. Then pour the peach sirup
over all and pop it into the oven to
bake. Basic it occasionally for good
measure. Remember stuffed
green peppers in your menu plan

using up a little leftover cooked
meat in satisfying dish. One cup

Diets are miserable things even
at their best, but finding some OF
the foods recommended on your diet
may be equally aggravating. A new
shop opened recently that makes a
speciality of Offering variety of
foods for diabetic, allergy. salt-free,
sugar and starch restricted, low
calorie and fat-free diets.
AL the products are labeled with
the chemical analysis Of the con-
tents so you can easily determine
whether the food contains any in
gredient banned from your particu-
lar diet. The list OF foods is much
too long to print here but it seemed
to me the most complete line OF
special" foods I have run across.
Let me give you just an inkling OF
what is available. There are a num-
ber of different allergy t1ours, sac
charm in tablet, powdered, or liquid
form, ice cream mixes, waffle and
pancake mix, sodium-free table salt
substitutes, fruits packed in water
without the addition OF sugar or salt,
salt-free bread in cans that keeps
indefinitely, and salt-free cooked
rice in cans.
On the opposite side Of the picture
is a relatively new French pastry
shop that turns out delectable
brooches, croissants, tarts, cookies,
etc. If you are watching your waist
line, these are not for you. If cal
cries are nothing in your young life
but something to talk about, then do
pay this shop visit. They have a
number of specialties and their
brooches are really out of this world.
Heated and served with your morn
ing coffee you couldn't help starting
the day out right! They are made
with a special yeast dough that in
cludes plenty of butter and eggs and
grated fresh lemon peel for flavor
ing. Their coffee ring is another big
hit with the customers; it sells out
right away, so you may be disap-
pointed unless you get there first. IT
you're looking for a birthday cake
for some one very special here is the
place to find it. They are made of
4 or S layers of sponge cake put to-
gether with rich butter cream
filling that is mixed with candied
fruit and favored with rum. The
top of the cake is then covered with
a layer of marzipan and over this
goes a glace of sugar icing; royal
icing is used for the fancy decora-
tions that adorn this masterpiece.
Oh, yes, be sure you ask for some
of the pecan brownies too. Now. if
this isn't enough, you can also get
strawberry tarts, Napoleon slices. al
mond slices, homemade bread, DAN
ish pastry, plain and fancy maca-
rooms and pies of all kinds.
The proprietor of this shop
learned his trade in France. He
hired out as an apprentice at the
age of IL and worked for three
years without pay before earning
his certificate. They worked long
hours in those days with only a
halliday off a week and even then
they had to come back in the eve
nings to set the dough for the next
day! There were no machines to do
the work; all the beating, mixing
and stirring was done by hand.
Prior to opening his own shop he
was pastry chef at the United States

SOUR MILK BISCUITS.

(Fro1n Mrs. A. W. w., Washington.
Requested by Mrs. A. v. Mel. This
recipe is from South Carolina cook
book, published for the benefit of a
small church:
One and a half cups Of flour
sifted in small round bowl with
l teaspoon baking powder, Il tea
spoon soda and q teaspoon salt.
If the buttermilk is not very sour,
use less soda. Make we'll in the
center of the flour and put in three
rounded tablespoons of lard. Pour
milk, approximately three-fourths
cup, directly on the lard in small
quantities and moisten the flour out
ward with a circular motion. The
lard and milk must go into the
flour together. When all the flour
is taken up in moist ball, remove
to Toured board. Do not knead,
but work with folding motion. Fold
half over and press down with
fingers. 1t is the folding that gives
the transverse flakes to the finished
biscuits. Roll to half inch thick,
cut and prick the top of each with
a fork.
I think plain sour milk can be
used instead of buttermilk. but
buttermilk is best. Mrs. Mel. will
probably have to experiment to find
exactly the right proportion of soda,
but the housewife of former days
who made biscuits daily was a per-
feet judge. Seldom did she turn out
"sodery" biscuits, yellow and bitter,
but this is a trick of an expert and
takes practice. and no doubt the
difficulty has caused many a cook
to turn to sweet-milk biscuits and
give up hope of turning out good
sour-milk biscuit. But boy! when
you get good sour-milk biscuit
it is TOPS!
