Show Review - Monday, November 21, 1983 - Page 9 Dept. of Transportation urges drivers to prepare now for safe winter driving and "S", i.e. MS, MS, M-- M&S, etc. Be sure to keep tire pressure at recommended levels; under-inflatin- g your tires increases wear, not traction. Filling your trunk or truck bed with sandbags is not a good way to increase traction either. A small amount of extra traction can be gained by putting extra weight over the rear axle, but most car trunks are well behind the rear axle and adding extra weight behind the axle can reduce overall control by lessening the load on the front wheels. This cuts steering control substantially and increases the risk of a spin-ou- t. It cuts your gas mileage, too. Emergencies can happen when you least expect them so be sure to have safety equipment in your car. You should include booster cables, and brush, sand, rock salt or traction mat, flares, flashlight and tire chains. Remember that having unob-structed vision is very important to safe driving. Take the time necessary to clear all windows of snow, ice or fog before starting out. During stormy weather, please give yourself plenty of extra time for getting to your destination. Speed limits are for perfect, dry conditions. On winter's icy road-ways, half the speed limit may be too fast. For general information any time on current road conditions throughout Utah, motorists can call The Utah Departments of Transportation and Public Safety update the recorded message as conditions change on Utah's major highways. The Utah Department of Tran-sportation is urging motorists to prepare for the upcoming winter season. Winterizing your car now will give you a headstart on hazardous winter driving. Now is the time to put snow tires on your vehicle. Radial tires are not snow tires unless they have snow tread. But remember, it's unsafe to mix regular snow tires with radials. The driving characteristics of radial tires are different from those of bias-pl- y or bias-belte- d tires and mixing types increases the risk of slipping and skidding. Also, "all season" tires do not necessarily qualify as snow tires. To make sure any tire you buy does qualify as a snow tire, just check the sidewall. All tires manufactured since Jan. 1, 1976 will be permanently labled with the words "Mud and Snow" or any contraction using the letters "M" r """"" " ' f X ? L !

"We found that at 170 degrees the turkey was thoroughly done, as well as being more tender and juicy than turkeys cooked to 180," Brennand says. "Turkeys were actually safe to eat at cooking thermometer tem-peratures as low as 160 degrees, but 170 degrees seemed to be the most acceptable to our panel of taste tasters," she adds. Brennand says her study of 142 turkeys of various weights also included trying different baking temperatures. She says birds cooked at 250 degrees instead of the more accepted 325 did score somewhat higher in taste, but they took twice as long to cook. She suggests you choose a baking temperature according to how heavy your turkey is and when you want it to be ready. With the 250 degree roasting temperature, you could leave the turkey in the oven over night. Thanksgiving turkey to melt in the mouth By CAROLYN KURR WARDLE Turkey Day is almost here and it will be time to roast the traditional bird. For some, the thought of cooking a turkey may seem to be an insurmountable problem and may take the fun and enjoyment out of the day. By following some simple rules and instructions you will be able to solve the problem and place on the Thanksgiving table a golden roasted bird that you can take pride in. First decide how many servings you will need. Follow the table below for the suggested number of servings Ready-to- - Cook-Weig- ht (Pounds) Number of Servings 6 to 8 6 to 10 8 to 12 10 to 20 12 to 16 20 to 32 20 to 24 40 to 50 Leave the turkey in the original wrap and use one of the following 3 methods for thawing. 1. If you're not ma hurry, place turkey on tray in the refrigerator, it will thaw within 3 to 4 days. 2. For faster thawing, place on a tray at room temperature m a closed brown grocery bag (the bag prevents the skin of the turkey from becoming too warm) 1 hour per pound of turkey. 3. For fastest thawing, cover turkey with cold water, changing water occasionally, one-ha- lf hour per pound of turkey. After thawing remove the plastic bag and remove the neck and giblets from cavities. Rinse turkey and wipe dry. Stuff cavities lightly with dressing. Prepare the stuffing just before roasting the bird. To save time, prepare the ingredients ahead chop celery, cube bread, etc., and refrigerate them separately. Mix the dressing and stuff the turkey right before you put it into the oven. Never stuff a turkey and then refrigerate it or freeze it. Bacteria grows readily and causes food poisoning. . . After stuffing the bird, fasten down legs either by tying or tucking ' under skin band. Neck skin should be skewered to the back. Place turkey in a shallow roasting pan. Baste with butter, then salt Use foil to loosely cover turkey pressing tightly at end of drumsticks and neck. When bird is two-third- s done, cut the band of skin that holds the drumsticks against the turkey. This will shorten cooking time by allowing heat to penetrate to the inside of the thighs. At this time, remove the foil and allow the turkey to brown. If you wish, you may baste the turkey while it is cooking. The turkey is done when the roast meat thermometer registers 180-185- The bulb must not touch the bone. The drumstick and thigh move easily. Timetable for Roasting Stuffed Whole Turkey Ready-to- - Approximate Time at Cook-Weig- ht (Pounds) 325F. (Hours) 4 to 8 3 to 4'2 8 to 12 4'z to 4 12 to 16 4 to 5 16 to 20 5y4to6 20 to 24 6 to 7 There are many good dressing recipes but my favorite is one my mother always uses. Sausage Stuffing 1 lb. loaf bread 1 lb. bulk pork sausage 2 cups chopped celery Vh cups chopped onion 1 V-- tsp. salt 1 tsp. garlic salt Vi-- l tsp. ground black pepper 1 tsp. ground thyme 1 tsp. rubbed sage Brown sausage. Break bread into bite-siz- e pieces. Place in a large mixing bowl. Add onions, celery, and seasonings. Mix well. Add browned sausage. Mix. Taste while you are mixing to make sure the seasonings are to your liking. I like mine quite spicy. Makes enough stuffing for an 2 lb. bird. |
