STATE COLLEGE HINTS
TO FARM HOMEMAKER

Slow and steady is the rule to
remember when cooking bacon
and sausage for best flavor, tender
texture and least waste, home eco
nomists say. By keeping the heat
low these meat products can be
cooked thoroughly without dry
ing, hardening, or scorching.
Slow cooking has another ad
vantage. It saves the fat in these
meats from reaching the smoking
point where it becomes less diges
tible and changes the flavor. *
Turn slices when partly cooked
for even cooking on both sides.

I Pour off the fat from the pan ?s
, the bacon cooks. When done lift
onto absorbent paper to drain be
fore serving.
Link sausage cakes may be pan- j
friend or oven-cooked. Take care ,
not to prick the links when turn
ing them with a fork because this
lets out juice and flavor. To p?n- i
fry linKS. plnce in a frying pan
with a few tablespoons of water,
cover and steam five minutes.
Then remove the cover and cook
over low heat, turning frequently
until the sausage is brown and i
any water in the pan has cooked
away. To pan-fry cakes, place in a
cold frying pan and cook over low
heat until cooked through and'
brown on both sides.
Cooking sausage in the oven
takes longer but is convenient and
economical if the oven is being
used for other foods.
Baked Apples with Honey: Wash
and core the" apples and arrange
in baking dish. Leave part of
the core in the bottom of the ap
ples. Fill the cavity , with honey,
using as much as the tartness of
the apples requires. Top with 1-4
teaspoon butter. Add enough
water to cover bottom of1 baking
dish. Bake in moderate oven until
apples are tender.

HOME AGENT LISTS
"PLENTIFUL FOODS"
Cheese has been added to the
U. S. Department of Agricult&re's
plentiful foods list for December,
Miss Mary Johnston, home dem
onstration agent for the State Col
lege Extension Service, said this
week, in pointing up the good buys'
for the month for North Carolina |
shoppers. Large stocks of cheese j
have accumulated in recent
months, and retail outlets should
be well supplied, she added.
Pecans, of course, will be a
good buy in the nut field, Miss i
Johnston said, with national pro
duction nearly a fifth larger than
the. previous?record, and more
than 40 per cent greater than last
year.
For vegetable lovers, \he home)
agent suggested Irish potatoes, I
onions, cabbage, carrots, and
sweet potatoes?all USDA Decem
ber plentifuls.
In listing the plentifuls, Miss
Johnston explained that before
foods can qualify for the monthly
USDA list they must be commonly
used, generally available, and in
plentiful supply. When a food
meets these qualifications, it
usually offers consumers more for
their dollar than other foods which
are less plentiful.
Fresh fi*uits that qualify for the
December list include cranberries,
grapefruit, oranges, apples, grapes,
and winter pears.
In addition, Miss Johnston said
consumers should find plentiful
supplies of such varied items as t
fruit spreads, peanut butter,
honey, dried fruits, fresh and
frozen fish, dried peas and beans,
oat and corn products, canned j
peas,' and Grade B eggs.
Then stir the meat well before
chopping. Another recipe which
:s popular in North Carolina is
one which includes red pepper.
For 50 pounds of pork trimmings
use the following: one pound salt,
1 1-2 ounces ground sage, if de
red, 1 1-2 ounces black pepper,
1 1-2 ounces red pepper.
QUESTION ? What trees are
recommended for planting around
the home?
ANSWER ? John Harris, the
"Tar Heel Gardener", says dog
wood is one of the best. The crape
myrtle, when allowed to grow na
turally, will make a beautiful
tree 25 to 40 feet high. Two. other
native trees which rank close to
these are shadbush and redbud.
Also, says Mr. Harris, there's no
reason why cultivated fruit trees
can't be used in the home grounds.
