This week’s cook, Chris Birkenhead has provided us with a recipe for this rich, sweet dessert. Although Chris and her husband, John, are not usually desert fans, this is one annual treat they look forward to, With cucumbers ripening quickly, Chris has two tasty recipies that utilize these vegetables. According to Chris, Cucumbers and Onions Marinade is a good summer salad. Cucum- bers and thinly sliced onions are alternated, then marinated in a dressing made of salad oil, wine vinegar, salt, basil, tarragon and pepper. After marinating for 5-24 hours, Cucumbers and Onions Marinade is ready to serve. For variety, sliced tomatoes may be alternated with the onions and cucum- bers. When an over- abundance of cucumbers becomes a problem, try Refrigerator Pickles. Not only are these pickles simple to make, but they keep indefinitely when refrigerated. Barbecued Spareribs and South of the Border Barbecued Chicken can either be cooked on the grill or in the oven. Since Chris is employed full- time, John, who also finds prepares meals. The recipe for South of the Border Chicken, a hot, spicy chicken dish, is one of John’s favorite recipes. Chris grew up in Coal- dale, a small town near Tamaqua. A graduate of Wilkes College she is a medical technologist at Nesbitt Hospital where she is section chief for the blood bank. John, a Wilkes-Barre native, is a graduate of King’s College. John teaches seventh and eighth grade social studies in the Wilkes-Barre School District where he also coaches baseball” and basketball. Chris and John met working on a Camelot production at their college years. Both Chris and John love to travel. They have visited 40 of the 50 states, finding San Francisco, Las Vegas and the Rocky Mountains particularly impressive. The Birken- heads have visited Aruba and St. Thomas. They have made three trips to Yellowstone National Park. Chris is a member of the Pennsylvania Association of Blood Banks, an affiliate of the American Society of Clinical Pathologists and a member of the Dallas Junior Woman’s Club. Her hobbies include playing the piano, crocheting and doing cross stitch. John is the family gardener, raising a vegetable garden each summer. He also has an impressive rose garden. He does rose panels for Jackson and Perkins, major rose producers. When cooking, Chris likes to combine several recipes to get desired results. Since the Birken- heads enjoy a wide variety of foods, Chris is free to experiment with almost any recipe. Chris makes her own jelly using any fruit available. Last year she made pink apple, pear, pineapple and grape jelly. Chris has found that experimenting with various spices produces interesting flavors.
