Cooking From The Kitchen Os The Chowan Herald
BY MILDRED HUSKINS
The early morning fogs and a
cool evening now and then tell
us something.
' This morning a heavy mist
Was lifting from the pond and a
few turning sourwood leaves
reflected their russetcoloring in
the still water. The big, fat
spider had manufactured an
indicated lace medallion tied
delicately to the hanging
baskets on the bapk porch. A
gray squirrel scampered away
from a handy supply of nuts
which has begun to fall out of
the chestnut burs. It is
beginning to look like autumn in
Our Dell.
:The seasons change but
inflation goes on and trying to
cppe with the .soaring cost of
food has reached crisis
proportions in many
households.
The homemaker has used all
of her cunning to please her
hungry family who are about
ready to rebellion at the sight of
another omelet. They just dare
her to further disguise the
baked beans. So, now we are
suggesting a little more
disguising by serving Meatloaf
Potato Pie which is a smart
solution to the “meaty”
problem. With this hearty main
dish, it is easy to meet the
family’s food demands and
outsmart high meat prices at
the same time.
The beefy “crust” requires
only three-fourths pound of
groung chuck to serve and
satisfy four to six meat-eating
appetites. The secret strategy
calls for stretching the inept
with oats and barbecue sauce
qnd pairing it with *a protein
rich pie filling of frozen
shoestring potatoes, eggs and
tdjeese.

recipe for Sausage Squash could
be the main dish one of these
autumn twilights.

Quickies
Chicken buillon made from
cubes is less expensive than
canned chicken broth; use the
bouillon is a sauce or a soup
when the chicken flavor is not of
paramount importance.
Mix preserved kumquats with
pineapple chuncks and serve
with a Chinese supper.
. Slivers of syrup-preserved or
candied ginger may be added to
buttered carrots.

Leftover fresh and canned
fruits may be easily made into
chutney by adding white or
brown'sugar, vinegar and such
spices as cinnamon, ginger and
nutmeg. To give the chutney an
East Indian Flavor, add
Worcestershire sauce.
