usefulness for covering
bowls, wrapping leftovers -
it clings so readily, seals in
freshness.

Ground Beef Dos

/ suit your family's prefer
ence. In most supermarkets
I ground beef is made from an
exact formula for blending
fine lean cuts Of beef with
just the right amount Of fat
for flavor and juiciness. Or,
choose beef chuck, stew
meat, round steak or any
other beef cut you wish and
have it ground to order.
2. Do buy an extra quantity,
season and shape into pat
ties. Place freezer paper be-
tween patties then wrap,
seal, and freeze them for
emergency meals.
8. Do store ground beef in the
coolest part of the refrigera-
tor.
4. Do use ground beef as soon
as possible preferably the
day Of purchase or no later
than the following day.
5. Do use moderate heat when
cooking ground beef.
6. Do shape patties evenly-as
thick at the edge as in the
center - they'll cook more
evenly.
z. Do handle the mixing Of pat
ties or meat loaves lightly
the less handling the more
tender the meat.
