"Over the fields and through the woods to Grandmother's house we go What do we find when we arrive? This time of year we'll find a turkey. Grandma's turkey was always the best; how can we do as well with ours?" asks Nancy Moore, senior extension adviser. Turkey is one of today's best meat buys both nutritionally and economically. Most turkeys today are purchased frozen and they should be left in the original bag and ngyer thawed at room temperature. Following are some good methods to thaw. > For those in no hurry, the turkey can be placed on a tray (to prevent dripping) in refrigerator for 3-4 days (24 hours for each 5 lbs. of bird). The fastest way is to cover with cold water, changing water frequently (M> hour per pound of turkey). When thawed, refrigerate or cook immediately for best quality; refreezing uncooked turkey is not recommended. Commercially stuffed turkeys should not be thawed before roasting. After thawing period, remove plastic wrap. Remove giblets from neck and body cavities. Rinse inside and outside with water, then pat dry. The turkey will roast quicker without stuffing, but Grandma always stuffed hers (so at this time, everyone does too). Fill the body and neck cavities. To present turkey at the *?ble in the best shape for carving, lock legs together, skewer neck flap with poultry pin of tpoth pick and tuck tips of wings "akimbo" under the bird prior to cooking. Now it is ready to roast. Place turkey breast side up on rack in shallow open roasting pan. Insert meat thermometer into center of thigh, next to the body but not touching the bone. If this method is chosen, a temperature of 180-190 degrees F should be reached during the cooking period. Place a "tent" of light weight foil, shiny side down, loosely over turkey to prevent over browning. Roast in 325 degrees F oven. Turkey may be basted. Foil may be removed the last half hour to facilitate browning. A 14- 20 lb. turkey that is stuffed takes 6-7 hours to cook; unstuffed, 5-6 hours. Turkey is done at 180-190 degrees F or if drumstick moves easily when manipulated. Stuffing should attain a temperature of 165 degrees F when cooked in the bird. Let turkey stand at room tem perature for 15-20 minutes and it will be easier to carve. Factors affecting roasting times are variations in ovens, shape of turkeys and degree of thawing. The bird should be checked for doneness about one hour before the end of the recommended roasting time. PAGE3-PLAINDEALER-TUESDAY, NOV^.VIBKH 23. 1982 1 THOUGHT FOR BIRTHS ?

Winter air has low humidity which dries the skin-and the chilly winds compound the damage by drying and cracking it. Indoors, ironically, steam heat also tends to dry out the skin. The com bination of all of these indoor-outdoor factors makes skin lose precious moisture, and can result in an older, weather-beaten look. Dermatologists frequently suggest using a mild soap for face and body needs during the winter months, specifically one designed to restore natural moisture removed by the elements. A companion dry skin cream is especially effective after bathing when the skin has a tendency to lose additonal moisture. The formula should contain emollients that keep the skin moisturized and smooth McHENRY MARKET PLACE 385-4100 spurgeons ^Look at These Great Buys!
