' , SPRING HILL ^'crgp A ROUNDTABLI DISCUSSION WITH THt MKROWAVK KXKRTS * Now is time to can that summer harvest ' How can I create a more appeal- ingp-browned appearance for microwave cooked food? Home economists in the Betty Crocker®Kitchens suggest: • For a sweet topping for batter breads, muffins and coffee cake, mix % cup brown or granulated sugar and % teaspoon cinnamon or 1 tablespoon sugar and % teas­ p o o n c i n n a m o n . B r u s h f i r m , shapefrHareads with butter or margarine; then roll bread in the mixture or sprinkle it on bread before microwaving. • To add flavor, texture and color, stir into the flour for a 9-inch one-. ; crust pastry: % teaspoon allspice or two tablespoons finely chopped nuts or one tablespoon toasted sesame seed. • Good for microwaving are dark batter cakes such as chocolate or gingerbread. If the cake will be removed from the baking dish, you can coat the greased dish with finely chopped nuts or corn flakes crumbs before pouring in the bat­ ter. Representatives of Nordic Ware® say browning pans can help you create the appealing ap­ pearance of conventionally cook­ ed foods. These pans permit browning, searing, grilling and frying. The utensil must be preheated first, just as you would preheat a heavy skillet for rangetop cook­ ing. Once preheated, you can fry eggs, grill sandwiches and steaks, saute vegetables.heat frozen piz- za (and achieve a crisp crust), prepare French toast and much more. * Here's a recipe tested and ap­ proved by the Betty Crocker Kit­ chens for Nordic War browning skillets. Cinnamon French Toast 2 eggs 1 tablespoon milk 1 teaspoon sugar teaspoon ground cinnamon VA teaspoon almond extract 4 slices French bread, each 1-inch thick 1 teaspoon butter or margarine Warm syrup or orange mar­ malade Beat eggs, milk, Sugar, cin­ namon and almond extract with fork in large bowl. Place French bread slices in egg mixture, turn­ ing to coat. Allow to soak while prehating All-in-One skillet, M i g h t y S i z z l e r T M o r Sizzlin'Skillet™. Preheat skillet at High for about five minutes (time may vary with skillet). Place butter on preheated skillet; spread evenly across surface. Place bread slices on skillet. Microwave at high for 1 minute; turn slices. Microwave 40 to 50 seconds longer, or until egg mix­ ture is set. Serve with warm syrup or orange marmalade. Serves 2.

This may sound like a direct contradiction, but it's not, especially if your kids just picked 15 pounds of blackberries, and your home garden keeps producing endless supplies of tomatoes. If you are overloaded with fresh fruits and vegetables from the summer's bountiful harvest, it is time to think about freezing or canning them. "What a good idea," you say, "but I have no idea how to begin." Many people don't. That's why the Department of Agriculture has two booklets, "Home Canning of Fruits and Vegetables" (Item 199N, $1.50) and "Home Freezing of Fruits and Vegetables" (Item 200N, $2.) To order these booklets, w r i t e t o t h e C o n s u m e r Information Center, Dept. RW. Pueblo, Colo. 81009. Please include the item numbers for the booklets you would like along with the price. If you are going to can your fruits and vegetables, you must make sure you have the right canner for each food. For fruits, tomatoes and pickled vegetables, use a boiling-water-bath canner to safely process these high acid ' Joods. For all common vegetables Jexcept tomatoes, use a steam- pressure canner, since processing these low-acid foods safely in a reasonable length of time takes a temperature higher than that of boiling water. When canning low- ' acid food, be sure to follow all canning recommendations to prevent botulism and other spoilage. "Home Canning of Fruits and Vegetables" answers important questions about home canning. For example, those who are trying to cut back on sodium should know that adding salt to foods is usually not necessary for safe processing. Salt is generally used for flavoring canned vegetables, except for pickled products. If you've decided that freezing is the way to store your excess fruits and vegetables, make sure you have the right kind of container for freezing. To retain highest quality in frozen food, packaging materials should be moisture-vapor-proof to prevent evaporation. Glass, metal and rigid plastic are examples of moisture-vapor-proof materials. Most plastic bags, wrapping materials, and waxed cartons made especially for freezing are moisture-vapor-resistant, and fruits and vegetables will keep their qualitytf frozen in them for up to a year. Ordinary waxed papers, and paper cartons from cottage cheese, ice cream and milk should not be used for freezing as they are not sufficiently moisture-vapor resistant. Canning and freezing your excess produce are good ways to assure that nothing will ever be "out of season" in your house.
