Survivors include his wife, Marguerite, and two sons. The body was taken to the Peter M. Justen and Son chapel McHenry, and then removed to the Drake and Sons funeral home, Park Ridge, for arrangements. Cooking Tips To reduce meat shrinkage and loss of juices, cook all meats, fresh or frozen at low to moderate temperatures -- 300 to 350 degrees F. Frozen meats may be defrosted either before or during cooking. But defrosting the meat before cooking will reduce cooking time and, in turn, reduce fuel costs. For example, a frozen roast requires an additional one-third to one-half time to cook than that required for a roast that has been defrosted. The time for cooking frozen steaks and chops varies according to the surface area and the thickness of the meat, as well as the broiling temperature. . To achieve the desired degree of doneness without overbrowning, broil thick frozen steaks and chops more slowly than the defrosted ones. Steaks and chops that are to be coated with eggs and crumbs or with batter should be defrosted before cooking, since the coatings will not readily adhere to frozen meats. J. WALTER GILPIN J. Walter Gilpin, 63, of 895 Main street, Antioch, died Wednesday, Feb. 21, of a heart attack. Born April 9, 1904 in Grass Lake, Mr. Gilpin had resided in Antioch for the past 8 years.
