The Chef SAYS

A real shrimp creole is a dish
that no one, unless allergic to sea-
food, can resist. When I was last
in New Orleans, l enjoyed 1t once
again at the home of friend who
has superb cook.
Here is the way she makes the
shrimp creole-it may vary bit
from standard recipes, but it is far
superior in every way and well
worth any extra effort.
First and foremost, get. raw
shrimps-no canned or precooked
ones will do. Shell them, clean
them and toss 2 cupfuls of them in
about tablespoon of foaming but
ter and tablespoons olive oil, for 2
minutes. Remove the shrimps and
set aside.
Add 2 more tablespoons foaming
butter and in this saute 6 mush-
rooms. finely sliced, for couple Of
minutes. Add tablespoons Mara
sala wine, or the same amount Of
very dry sherry and l tablespoon
finely chopped red and green pep
pers. Cook until liquid is. some-
what reduced. Then put in u tea
spoon meat glaze or extract and a
teaspoon of tomato paste. Let heat
well. Then mix In a cup of cream,
II tablespoons of sour cream, salt,
cayenne and chilli pepper to taste.
Evening star., 1948-05-13

Brown onions, sliced, in little
butter and add them and the
shrimps to the mixture. Simmer
slowly until shrimps are pink and
serve piping hot with a rice pilaf1
made this way:
Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and
l of oil in a pan. Add a little
chopped onion and l cup of dry raw
rice. Season with salt and pepper
Pour on a little chicken stock OF
bouillon and bring to boil. Blanch
and shred 3 tablespoons of almonds
and add them. Put the lid on the
pot and cook in q moderate oven for
half an hour. Then arrange the
rice in a loaf or a ring on a hot
platter and pour shrimp over OF
into center Of the ring. Garnish
top with more almonds, which have
been blanched, shredded and fried
to q golden color In hot oil.
A salad of baby lettuce leaves
which should be springing up right
now in your garden-and very thin
ly sliced cucumbers, dressed with
lemon juice, freshly ground black
pepper and just a smidgen of the
best olive oil. is the perfect side
dish. The shrimp creole is so rich
and delicious that the bite of the
tart cucumbers Is refreshing and
interesting.

In spite Of all the furry caused by
the anticipated railroad strike, there
seems to be a good supply Of fruit
vegetables and fish in town. While
didn't notice any particular bar
gains, still, the prices didn't get out
OF line. The people "in the know
tell me wholesalers made heavier
purchases ahead Of time to take
care of the expected shortages. Then
too, a great deal of our fresh pro-
duce and fish are trucked into town
so you need have no concern about
supplies this week. In fact, most OF
the produce looked unusually. good
this morning.
Strawberries are coming In from
the Eastern Shore now; they are
beautiful looking berries, by far the
best I've seen this season. The
prices are about the same as last
week. Tomatoes, too, are far SUI
perior to what we have been getting;
they're from the new crop in Flor
ida. Instead Of being packaged, you
can buy them in bulk or 'loose," as
the trade terms It.
This warm weather has suddenly
made us all salad conscious. With
the exception Of lettuce, which is OF
definitely poor quality, there is
plenty of excellent escarole, romaine,
celery cabbage, radishes, spring
onions and cress to I'LL the salad

for daily use, pour tablespoons OF
furniture polish or liquid glass into

the entire inside of the jar is coated.
then pour out the remaining polish
or wax. Put a piece of chamois In
the jar and allow it to stand for q

the cloth will have absorbed the
