The Frontier Woman —
Former Resident Writes That She Cherishes
Memories of War Year Spent in O’Neill
Br BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
a Hi there, all you nice peo-T
pie' How goes things at your
house—as if I don’t have a pret
ty good idea.
Pardon me, if I ask you how
much you know about natural
cheese varieties. Cheese and
the varieties are a good thing to
know about because of the food
values as well as the scores of
delightful ways it can be used.
Cheddar cheese is best known
in this country as American
cheese. This delicous dairy food
is firm and even textured it
arnuires a pronounced flavoi
. through ag
, ing. Ameri
can cheese is
I made in vari
ous sizes and
shapes. Long
horn, Ched
dar, Young
Ameri can,
Daisy, Twin

or loaves.

% Pease cheese which
k a sweet curd cheese made or
rather originated in America, is
excellent for sandwiches. Muen
ster cheese, which is a soft, fast
curing cheese is also an ideal
sandwich spread. Limburger is
a soft textured cheese with dis
tinctive flavor, either mild or
pronounced, it is largely used
for sandwich spread and for
crackers, or served with pota
toes boiled in the jackets.
Blue vein cheese usually
comes in four-pound size, it is
an Amercan version of Roque
fort—piquant flavor and soft
texture. White, streaked with
blue, it is an after dinner del
icacy.
Camembert cheese comes in
1%-pound sizes. It is grayish
outside and waxy color inside,
almost fluid when finally cur
ed, it is for desserts, salads and
crsckcrs.
Brie comes in two-pound sizes
—and is somewhat similar to
Camembert. Soft mild when
fresh, it has a distinctive flavor
when cured. For table, salad,
desserts and crackers.
Edam Cheese usually comes in
six-pound and two-pound sizes.
It is red coated, ball-shaped
and firm, it is slightly crumbly.
Its flavor develops with ageing
and takes three weeks to three
months. For appetizers, desserts
and salads, it sometimes is grat
ed for flavoring. Softer types
have body, texture and flavor
similar to good brick cheese.
An unusual cheese is Baby
Gouda, coming in one-pound
size, it is similar to soft Edam
and is used about the same.
These are many Italian types
of cheese. Provoloni, Provolon
cinni, Provolette, Salem, and
Caciocavall are all made by
about the same methods, about
the only difference being in
shape. Any difference in flavor,
body and texture is due to the
age of the cheese. These va
rieties of cheese excell for table
use when comparatively fresh.
As they become fully cured they
are used for flavoring such
foods as soups and salads. The
curing time of these styles range
from two months to two years.
All styles come in pairs, with
the exception of Caciocavallo.

How to handle cheese. Keep
cheese in the refrigertor.
Cover cut surfaces of cheese
tightly with waxed paper, or
keep in covered dishes.
For cooking, aged cheese (ov
er six months) is preferred. It
provides a richer flavor, melts
and blends well.
Cheese dishes should be cook
ed at low temperatures. Grated
or shredded cheese melts quick

Mrs. Lottie Thompson, of In
man, wins a three-months' sub
scription to The Frontier;
Dear Mrs. Pease:
This is one of those grey sort
of cheerless days, and I am
lonesome so will drop you a
line.
I do like The Frontier Wo
man and read it every time I
can. Do not like the snow and
cold weather; I’ll be glad to see
spring again. I am in the house
so much now as my husband is
ill and has been bedfast since
October 1. I do like to cook and
here is a recipe we all like:
GINGER SNAP COOKIES
Two eggs—well beaten, two
cups white sugar, one cup lard,
one cup molasses, one teaspoon
ginger, two teaspoons soda in
warm water, five cups flour. Put
all together and beat. Roll in
small balls and bake in hot oven.
Be sure to use lard not butter in
this recipe.

Former O'Neill Also Wins
3-Months' Subscription —
Dear Mrs. Pease:
With the. holiday rush being
over, and being snowbound on
our farm, I have plenty of time
to recollect some of the past
events in my life.
Several years ago, during the
war, I spent some time living
with my parents in O’Neill. Ap
proximately a year in that city,
makes me class myself as a for
mer O’Neill resident.
I wish I knew of some way
to show my feeling of apprecia
tion for the friendly spirit of
the people I met while there.
Now, allhough quite some
distance away, 1 enjoy going
there and renewing friend
ships, together with shopping
in O'Neill's busy stores.
I vivdly recall the happy
smile of Miss McCullough, our
county superintendent, as I
met her time and time again
on the postoffice steps at noon;
the pleasant manner in which
Mr. Campbell greeted people as
they entered the bank; a
friendly chgt with the Stannard
girls, whenever I came to their
store.
Hats off to Ira George, who
directs one of north-Nebraska s
finest bands. (I have a sister
playing in the band, hence, a
feeling of pride.)
A final remark: I can truth
fully say, my year spent in O’
Neill was one I shall remember
for many years to come.
May I add to my letter, a re
cipe for a cake that I made fre
quently—a large cake for a
small family, but stays moist un
til the last bite has been taken.
APPLE SAUCE CAKE
One and one-half cups apple
sauce, one cup granulated sug
ar, cup butter and lard mix
ed, two cups seedless raisins,
three cups flour, two teaspoons
soda, one cup nutmeats, one
tablespoon lemon juice, one
teaspoon vanilla, Vi teaspoon
salt, one teaspoon cinnamon, Ms
teaspoon cloves, V4 teaspoon
nutmeg.
Use apple sauce sweetened as
for the table cream, butter and
lard and gradually beat in the
sugar. Add apple sauce. Wash
and dry raisins. Mix thorough
ly with one cup of flour. Add to
first mixture. Mix and sift re
maining flour with salt, soda
and spices. Add vanilla and
lemon juice to first mixture.
Beat well and add dry ingred
ients and nuts. Stir hard for two
or three minutes. Turn into a
deep pan lined with heavy par
chment paper and bake one and
one-half hours in a slow oven.
A FORMER O’NEILI.ITE.

A superior tasting yet thrifty
dessert for the George Wash
ington day luncheon is made
by folding fine egg noodles and
canned cherry halves into a
creamy egg custard. Top the
chilled custard with a drift of
whipped cream and a whole
cherry. Noodles give the custard
a nice chewy texture at the
same time that they add import
ant protein to the meal.
When the soup is the main
course, make it extra satisfy
ing by adding noodles or mac
aroni to it as it cooks. The
bland flavor of macaroni foods
makes them go well with all
meats and vegetables. The high
protein content of durum wheat
foods makes the soup healthful
and nourishing for growing
youngsters.
BUY WEASELS'
With electric lines in many
areas isolated by snow-blocked
roads and prospects of continu
ing snow, the board of directors
of Consumers Public Power
district, has aproved the pur
chase of two army surplus
“weasels.” The first ones ob
tained will be assigned to the
northeastern area where snow
conditions are worst and others
will be assigned as needed.
A snowmobile, of the half
track type, used successfully in
several localities during the
blizzard, was also purchased for
use in the northeastern part of
the state for line repair work
during the snowbound emer
gency. _
