QUESTION: Which veins must

QUESTION: Which veins must
be excised in this process?
Answer: The number of veins
to be extracted from the hind por-
ton for both fat and blood con-
tent number one hundred and
eleven. For this reason the hind
portion is generally not used
today, it being such tedious job
to remove them. The veins in the
forequarter of the animal which
are removed are located in several
places such as the breast, the neck
and the tongue.

QUESTION: What is a "Mena-
kerr?
ANSWER: A "menaker" is the
title given to one who specializes
in the removal of forbidden fat
and blood after the slaughter of
an animal, in order to render the
flesh of the animal fit for human
consumption according to the
Jewish dietary laws. The term
comes from a root meaning ito
pick" or to pull out" The spe-
cialist for this work is called by
this name because he must be
proficient in pulling out" veins
and skeins of fat which are for
hidden us.
QUESTION: How does one dis
tinguish between the fat of the
animal which is permissible and
that fat which is forbidden?
ANSWER: The kind which is
forbidden is that which is easily
peeled and is not covered by mus
cular tissue. It appears as an ex-
ternal investment and is encysted.
1t is soft, falls apart from the
flesh and is easily handled sepa-
Fately. It is easily dissected and,
does not resist the knife. Kosher
fat clings to the flesh and has to
be forcibly ripped away. Those
who specialize in this work are
easily aware of the fats which
have to be removed.
QUESTION: Why is this fat
prohibited?
ANSWER: The Bible contains
an injunction against eating it
Neviticus 7:24). This fat was the
fat which was offered on the altar
as sacrifice and thus it was as
signed to the altar and not for
human consumption. Maimonidies
claimed that this type of fat was
injurious to ones blood circula-
tiOn and would irnnair ono'c
health. He felt that this fat is par
ticularly cold and thick and is diff
ficult to cook well. It spoils more
quickly than fat which is easier to
cook and digest. Abarbanel ex-.
plains that the fat which is pro-
hibited affects the moral status
of the individual, making him
sluggish and irresponsible to his
moral obligations.

Prevent Fires By Avoiding Their
Causes Reminds Fire Chief Lanqe

"Undetermined origin" is a COM
mon phrase in news reports of a
fire, says chief Fred A. Lange.
In the charred and Quilted shell of
what used to be someone's home,
he points out, it is difficult to
figure out Immediately where the
first wisp of smoke curled up
where the first tiny flame licked
out, "but given little time, trained
and experienced men can usually
reconstruct the situation. A late
party-people smoking-a cigar
cite that fell unnoticed among the
sofa customs and smoldered there.
An open fire left burning-sparks
that jumped on the rug or piece
of furniture. Oversize fuses in the
fuse box-overloaded electrical wir-
ing that burst into flace.
whatever happened, it's past
remedying. 1t matters only as a
guide to the future. But to a fire
victim, what matters most it the
present.
Everything is gone: family
heirlooms, cherished momentos,
clothing, jewelry, furnishings, val
liable papers-all the things that
went to make up one family's daily
life"

You will be hearing a great deal
about fires and how to prevent
them. Act on what you hear. It's
easy to think about the future
now-but it's hard after fire!
Have you heard the old saying,
Where there's smoke, there's
fire ?" An even better saying might
be Where there's a smoker, watch
out for a fire!," because careless
smoking habits, coupled with care
less use of matches, are responsible

for over 25 per cent Of all fires.
If you smoke, don't take chances.
When you are outdoors, make sure
matches and butts are dead-out be-
fore you thow them away. At home
or out in the car, always dispose
of them in an ashtray.
Before emptying any ashtray,
make sure it contains no glowing
embers. Before you go to bed,
especially after entertaining, look
around to see that no cigarettes
have dropped into upholstered fur
niture or anywhere else where they
could smolder and start a fire.
And NEVER smoke in bed! Make
your motto, where l smoke, there
won't be a fire."

one inasmuch as the Western

The Arab countries are united
only in their opposition to the

she continued, the only country
who might have claim to that por-
ton of Palestine which is now
Israel is Turkey from whom this
region was taken after World War
I. ''But Turkey is most friend
ly with Israel There is trade
and good feeling between the two
countries :. What right has any
Arab country to ask for territorial
concessions from Israel if the land
did not belong to them in any

place. When a layer has been
formed another sheet of paper is
placed over the layer Of shrimp.
These steps are repeated until the
box is filled, then it is passed on
to the adjuster-weigher. This oper-
ator adds or removes shrimp I'M
til the weight is exact, when the
package is routed to the closing
and wrapping machine, which is
fully automatic. From the closing
and wrapping machine the pack
ages are stacked in racks for de-
livery to the freezer. Packages are
of two sizes to contain either 10
or IL ounces Of the Dreaded prod
uct.
z. Freezing: The method of
freezing varies considerably as to
type of freezer, temperatures for
freezing and length of time for
freezing. In some plants the cabi-
net type is used, in others the
blast type. Temperatures vary
from -28' to -50' F. and the
time of freezing from several min
utes to several hours. There seems
to be no particular advantage to
be gained by the very rapid freez-
ing or the very low temperatures,
The coastland times. [volume] (Mnateo [i.e. Manteo], N.C.) 1947-1959, 1956-06-08

and since very low temperatures
are uneconomical and add substan-
TALLY to the costs, the North
Carolina professor would be we'll
advised to freeze at a temperature
of about -28' F.
For the beginning, at least, the
blast type freezer is recommend
ed. This is more an all purpose
freezer and will enable the manu-
facturer to freeze round fish as
we'll as packaged fish. The cabinet
freezer is more desirable in pack
aged goods where the content of
the package expands to such an
extent upon freezing that the
package is distorted. This may
happen in tightly packed cartons
of fillets, headed and dressed fish,
etc. It does not happen, however,
in Dreaded shrimp since the space
within the carton is never filled
to such an extent that expansion
of the content presses the sides
of the package outward, causing
it to bulge. Very rapid freezing
can be obtained by the cabinet
type freezer since freezing takes
place from both top and bottom
of the package.
The coastland times. [volume] (Mnateo [i.e. Manteo], N.C.) 1947-1959, 1956-06-08

it would seem that the production
should be small for the first year
in order that the market might be
felt out, that production wrinkles
could be ironed out and that new
method could be oriented into the
fisheries. While the ultimate ideal
would be central plant located cen
trial to the shrimp supply, this
should come only with experience.
At the present one of several small
community projects seem indicated,
one of which or an amalgamation
of several would bring the central
plant into existence. A shrimp
processing plant could well form
the hard core for universal plant
to manufacture all forms of special
seafood, products such as .deviled
crabs, Dreaded trout fillets, frozen
green shrimp in consumer pack,
packaged seafood dinners, soups,
bisques and specialties from oys-
tiers, shrimp, crabs and fin fish.
Not to be overlooked are frozen
green shrimp, de-veined, peeled
and cooked shrimp and, frozen
"split shell" shrimp.
The price structures, the de-
mand and, the profits as well as
the history of the industry create
a picture of successful operations
based on this commodity. The OPP
portunity can most successfully be
exploited by individuals already in
the shrimp business and who have
buildings which can be used and
some Of the items of machinery
necessary. It appears that it
would not be wise to start from
scratch because of the capital in
yestment required. Reference to

!! 8. Storage: The storage of fro
zen goods is Of the greatest i'm
portance and a storage room
should never be allowed to have a
| temperature higher than -5es F.
It is not necessary to hold the
storage at lower than LIE F.
The storage should be so construc-
ted that in loading or unloading
the freezer, a minimum of outside
! air enters the storage room. This
can be accomplished by incorporat-
ing a refrigerated buffer room or
by the use of small loading and
unloading ports.
Consumer Acceptance and Flu
ture Market: The Fish and Wild
life Service has given particular
attention to Dreaded shrimp in a
recent market survey. The level of
production established in 1862 has
been maintained to the present, but
there has been little change up
ward. One housewife in five had
served Dreaded shrimp prior to
November 1854. Most of these, be-
came satisfied and repeat ,custo-
mers. The use of Dreaded shrimp
is related to the family income:
one family in eight with an in
come less than $4,000 purchased
the item, one family in three in
the $4,000 and over bracket. The
$4,000 groups purchased about
one-half the amount that the Sc
1000 group did. The size of the
package desired varies with
household membership, families of
two preferring the 10 ounce size
whereas larger families prefer the
IL ounce size. The indications are
that the large family prefers the
small shrimp and the small family
e persons), the large shrimp. "6
Manufacturing Potentia 1 in
North Carolina: Roughly 500 of
the shrimp produced in North
Carolina are of a size suitable
for breading. II In 1858 1855, 900
pounds of shrimp were landed, 500
of which would be 8,787, 900 pounds.
Roughly 400 of the landed gross
weight is lost when the shrimp is
beheaded, leaving net weight of
shrimp, in the amount Of 5,272, 900.
We find that this poundage of
shrimp would produce in round
figures 5,905,O00 pounds of manu-
featured goods.
The value of this manufactured
inventory would approximate $4,-
400, 900 g. The direct labor pay
roll would be over 100000. %
The finished product represents
roughly 2S%0 Of the 1862 U. s.
production Of Dreaded shrimp.

The legs of the animal, being at
tached to the shell are removed
with the shell. (b) the sand vein
or gut and the blood vessel lying
along the dorsal or back of the
shrimp are removed. The two
operations are done almost stimuli
taneously by hand, the instrument
used being an ordinary small par
ing knife.
While simple, the process has to
be done with meticulous care.
There is at this stage a serious
possibility of loss in valuable raw
material. Done with almost surgi-
cal skill the operation results in
a loss of about 10-14T6. Carelessly
done it. could amount to $3.50 or
more. The average loss in we'll
operated plant is accounted rough
ly 10000. Quality standards now
being worked out by the industry
and the chronological specialists
will require that only the smallest
threads of the sand vein be left
in the product and that the final
product have no loose or excess
shell.
s. Coating with Batter and
Bread (meal-mix): Following de-
veining the shrimp are washed for
battering and breading. The latter
operations are accomplished by
hand or machinery, however, hand
operations seem to be favored. BY
the hand method it consists of i'm
mersing the shrimp, held by the
tail, in a light batter, made from
a ready-mixed commercial flour,
IS to which water is added. The
light coating of batter causes the
flour, into which the shrimp is next
dipped, to adhere in a light coat
ing. To some extent the flour pick
up is controlled by the consistence
of the batter. Some plants prefer
very light batter and a second
or third dip in batter and flour.
The amount, of breading material
varies with plant practice, con-
sumner preference and standards
imposed by buyers. In practice it
now varies from 80 to 20 % of
the weight of the Dreaded shrimp,
although proposed quality stand
ards will likely narrow this range
with breading over 500 being
abandoned, except in cases when
buyer demands it.
6. Packaging. Packaging follows
the battering and breading. Con-
tainers of waxed cardboard are
performed and placed before the
workers. A cut sheet of waxed
paper is placed in the bottom of
the container, and the Dreaded raw
shrimp are placed side by side on
the waxed sheet and patted into
