Farm Wife and Family
Thanksgiving Fare
by Mrs. Richard C. Spence
As happy fami’ies gather to count their blessings at
Thanksgiving time the bountiful tab e is a part of the tra
dition The plump, golden-browned turkey is the center of
the meal just as it was in the early days of our country.
Cranberries, nuts and pumpkin pies are also part of the
setting
The warmth and fellowship
of this family holiday remain
unchaned. Turkey is the big
story. Today’s birds are quite
different from those the pil
grims served. Turkeys are
now tender, plump and juicy,
scientifically grown to pro
vide the best eating ever.
The drumsticks have been
tucked into a slit of skin at
the base of the body cavity.

tractive rounded appearance
and, because the drumsticks
can be s ipped in and out

modern turkeys range in

buy just the size bird that
will serve her family’s needs

with an old-fashioned bread
stuffing. The turkey is clean
ed, pinfeathered and quick
frozen at the peak of quality.
Mrs. Pilgrim didn’t have
well known brand names on
which to rely nor did she
have careful-y tested roast
ing schedu ea accompanying
her Thanksgiving’turkey.
All these conveniences
make light work of prepara
tions on the day. The
frozen turkey which is pur
chased already stuffed should
not be thawed before roast :
ing. However, overnight stor
age in the refrigerator (12-18
hours) is satisfactory.
If you plan to do the tur
key stuffing, be sure to alldw
time for the turkey to thaw.
Thawing may be done in the
refrigerator or under * cold
running water. Actual stuff
ing of the bird should not
take place until just before
time to put it into the oven.
COOKING THE TURKEY
New ways for cooking an
o’d favorite like turkey are

would like to share with you
