12—Lancaster Farming, Saturday. April 28, 1973 3: TRY SUKIYAKI, HA WAIIAN-STYLE Hawaii was settled by peoples of many lands, and the foods served there show the influence of the early settlers, the Japa nese, Chinese, Philippines, Portugese and Koreans. Sukiyaki is one of the foods the Japanese introduced. Its great popularity is due to the fresh flavor of the meat and vege tables and the great speed with which it is cooked. It takes only a few minutes, about five, to cook sukiyaki. The cooking can be done dramatically at the table in an electric frypan to the delight of the family and friends or over the kitchen range. Tender, lean beef, such as sirloin, is generally selected for sukiyaki. The beef is cut diagonally across the grain of the meat into strips 2to 2 I A inches long, l A inch wide and Vt inch thick. It takes a bit of time to prepare the ingredients correctly, but they may be cut several hours before serving time, wrapped careftilly and stored in the refrigerator until prepara tion time.

According to a 10-state sur vey a significant proportion of the population is malnour ished or risking the develop ment of nutritional problems. The survey, conducted un der contract with the federal government, was one of the most comprehensive studies of the nutritional status of low income people ever at tempted. It involved more than 40,000 people with 50 per cent 16 years of age or under; 30 per cent from 17 to 44, and the rest 45 or older. Evidence of the malnutri tion was most commonly found among the black, less commonly among Spanish Americans, and least among white persons. Males showed more evidence of malnutri tion than females, and adoles cents had the highest preval ence of unsatisfactory nutri tional status. In general, the nutrients most often found lacking were iron, vitamin A, ribo flavin, protein and low in takes of vitamin C. Dr. Philip L. White, secretary of the Council of Foods and Nutri tion of the American Medical Association, says this is no indictment of our food sup ply but rather an indictment of our food habits. He believes that indiffer ence to sound nutritional principles is common to all in come groups and is more of a factor than ignorance. Good nutrition information is eas ily available through news papers, magazines, food com panies, and public service agencies. What we need is the motivation to eat more fruits, vegetables, meat, dairy prod ucts and cereal, and less soft drinks and snack foods, he says. Adolescents 10 and 16 years old showed the most malnu trition due to carelessness in food selection and the lack of protective foods. sperry=y*inew hollaisd Perfect team for haylage! C. E.
