P Is For Potatoes—and Plentiful
Some of life’s good things begin
with a “P” and not the least of
them is the Popular Potato.
And if your budget is bursting
at the seams, it’s good to know
that Potatoes and Potato
Products are on the Plentiful
List, hence kind to the Pocket
book!
In fact, this is the second month
the tasty tuber has made the list,
published by the U.S. Depart
ment of Agriculture’s Consumer
and Marketing Service. C & MS
says that becuase of the large
supply* available prices are ex
pected to remain at low levels
during the month. Inventories of
frozen French fries in particular
are of nearly record proportions.
Speaking of frozen French
fries, keep a few packages in
your freezer and you’ll never be
at a loss for something to ac
company the main dish. Try
mixing sauteed onions with them.
Instand mashed potatoes, too,
are a boon to the busy cook. Vary
the liquid when you make them;
try cream soups, sour cream or
buttermilk sometimes instead of
whole milk and you’ll be pleased
with the results. Fold in some
chives with the sour cream and
you’ll really have a special treat.
Second-day mashed potatoes
can be appetizing fare, too. For
instance, try seasoning leftovers
with onion, salt and pepper and
rolling them into balls; then fry
them until golden brown.
And if it’s fresh potatoes you’re
after, remember that the best
ones are firm, smooth and well
shaped. They should be free from
cuts and blemishes. Avoid the
ones with green color on some
part of the surface, for these
spots have a bitter taste.
And keep them in a cool, dark
place when you get home. Never

store them in an airtight con
tainer, for they need air cir
culating around them.
Now that you’re a potato ex
pert, try this interesting recipe
for PAO DOCE, a sweet bread
made in Portugal:
1 tablespoon sugar
1 package active dry yeast
V 4 cup lukewarm potato water
V 2 cup mashed potatoes
Vs teaspoon ginger
V 2 cup milk
IV* teaspoon salt
H « cup butter or margarine
3 eggs
% cup sugar
4 cups enriched all-purpose flour
(approx.)
TO PREPARE: Add the
tablespoon of sugar and yeast to
the lukewarm potato water and
stir until dissolved. Blend in
lukewarm mashed potatoes and
ginger. Set aside to rise until
double in bulk.
Scald milk, add salt and butter,
and cool to lukewarm.
Beat eggs; save a
tablespoonful to use as glaze. Add
% cup sugar gradually to the
remainder of eggs and continue
beating until light.
Combine yeast, egg and milk
mixture (be sure all ingredients
are lukewarm). Blend thoroughly
and then stir in two cups of the
flour. Beat until well blended,
about 5 minutes. Add remaining
flour gradually, kneading when
dough becomes too stiff to beat.
Turn out on a floured board and
knead until smooth and elastic,
about 5 minutes. Add only enough
extra flour to prevent sticking.
Place the dough in greased
bowl, turning once to grease
surface. Cover and let rise in a
warm place until double in size,
about an hour.
Punch down dough, and divide
it into 2 balls. Allow dough to rest
about 5 minutes—this makes it
easier to handle. Shape into
round loaves or other desired
shapes. Place in greased baking
pans or on cookie sheet. Cover
and allow to rise in a warm place
until double in bulk, about Vk
hours.
Brush loaves with beaten egg.
Bake at 350 F. for about 30
