They cooked what they needed for one meal and froze the rest for later use. A number of the freezer owners said they found it was easier, faster and more efficient to preserve food by freezing than by other methods. Bet ter year-round eating and the abil ity to serve “more interesting meals” also appealed to a large group. Enjoying out-of-season foods is one of the pleasures available to freezer owners. Fruit, sweet corn and vegetables can be just as tasty at Christmas time as when they arrive fresh from the garden if they have been prepared and frozen cor rectly. Instruction books on using freezers are available from all freez er manufacturers. Preparation of meals is made easier with a freezer. Foods are ready to cook without peeling or washing. They cook faster, and you can prepare whole meals days and weeks ahead of any special occasion. Freezing retains more of the food value than any other methods of food preservation. Valuable vitamins and minerals are frozen in. And frozen food bolds its natural color and taste. - " " MANY OPENINGS IN COAST GUARD SERVICE The Coast Guard announces its recruiting quota in the Fifth District is now unlimited.
