lay, November 17, 195$ r,- THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Something New In '55 Pumpkin Pie hat;-staid and esteemed staple of the Thanksgiving' feast, pump- Wn pie, suddenly seems new. And it's all because bananas have been paired with pumpkin for a bi*and new effect. Mellow banana <J^esn't intrude on pumpkin's subtle flavor., it just blends its tones in a toothsome duet. The result is banana pumpkin chiffon pie, bound to bring "Oh my" from Thanksgiving guests. If they ask you how you got that fresh banana flavor into the filling, without benefit of sliced or diced bananas, tell them about n^ashing bananas. This is done merely slicing ripe bananas into a bowl, and mashing with a fork, \intil you have a thick liquid. Mashed bananas permeate mixtures with delicious flavor.
