Show Review - Wednesday, October 16, 1985 - Page 8 A fickle sense of taste besets u by DENNIS HINKAMP The New CokeOld Coke con-troversy has raised people's awareness of subtle changes in taste. Blind taste tests have found that many people can't tell the difference between new and old Coke or even between Coke and some of the competing cola brands. So, for many of us, a cola, is a cola, is a cola. This lack of discriminating taste carries over to other foods as well. You might be surprised how many of us can't distinguish between pork, beef and lamb. A really group of taste testers, you say? Not at all. The test was designed to eliminate most of the external cues that help us distinguish dif-ferent types of meat - color, tex-ture- e, shape, cooking method. According to Dr. Charlotte Brennand, assistant professor of nutrition and food sciences at USU, when you prepare a broth from each of the three types of meat, taste test panelists have a hard time distinguishing differences in taste. She says panelists had an especially hard time distinguishing between the three meat broths when the meat fat was taken out. Lamb and pork broths with fat removed were often confused with beef broth. On the other hand, when the lamb fat was present, it was almost always identified as ia , Brennand says This8 research indicatees that our food preferences things other than taste d i kwho entered the studyS hated lamb, actually wEft they were eating it or not if Finding that people , the taste of lamb by its fat 1" may indicate that cooking meS' have a lot to do with people's SJ dislike of lamb, shei saw f think you don't like the tastlf lamb, you may want to try it but this time remove as much oft external fat as possible befn cooking. ure I i. j Naomi Gillies, known as "Sourdough Mama" among her family and friends, shows off some of her bread. Naomi's great sourdough start flavors goodies By KALYN SECRETAN Sourdough Mama, as she is lovingly called by her family, and it is also her C.B. Handle, Naomi Gillies purchased a start of sour-dough in Alaska in 1964. It was 65 years old then, making it 85 years old now and better than ever. Many Pleasant Grove residents will remember the Relief Society demonstrations by Naomi and sampled her bread, scones, waffles and pancakes. Husbands loved their wives new adventure in sourdough and begged their wives to make it again. Naomi loved to demonstrate this new art in Relief Society, MIA and other gathering. With the help of her dear friend, Betty Smith, over 100 demonstrations were given. Naomi and Betty traveled all over Salt Lake, Wasatch and Utah Counties distributing sourdough starts all along the way. Many have lost their starts and she is still called upon for a new one. The starts have continued to travel, not only within Utah but around the world. The sourdough traveled to Australia with Maymetta Johnson, when she and her husband were called on a mission. She shared it with the Saints and missionaries. As the women - served their sourdough specialities, visitors wanted a start to take home, so it found its way into many states and countries. Naomi was excited about her sourdough purchase in Alaska. It was in a powder form and it was like working with glass. She was so afraid of not being able to do it. Sourdough has quite a history. In the early days of Alaska, bread-makin- g at home was a necessity. Food supplies came only once or twice a year by ship and then were transferred to small boats, river steamers, dog sleds or backpacks to reach their destination. Yeast deactivated in a short time and could deteriorate entirely enroute. Ordinary yeast plants refused to grow but the sourdough start proved as tough as its old-tim- e namesake. Naomi is also known as "Gran-dma Gillies" around the neigh-borhood where neighbors are often delighted to receive her delicious whole wheat honey bread on many occasions. Rolls and scones have been served at many church functions and parties. Mutual girls will remember several years at camp where Naomi and Claude Gillies went along as chaperones and ended up serving a lot of sourdough scones. One year as the girls were camped not too far away from a Scout troop, Naomi invited the troop over to finish up the scones and she ended up cooking for a long time. Money for camp was raised one year as Naomi helped the girls prepare a pancake supper where the sourdough pancakes were topped with strawberries and cream. A granddaughter is following in her grandmother's footsteps. Janet Hardinger, who lives in Hillsboro, Oregon, rented a space and sold sourdough scones at a western fair. They were a big hit and she made over $200. A great cook, Naomi is known for all her special treats. She likes to cook for her entire family on oc-casion. Claude and Naomi had four children and now have 15 grand-children and 20 great grand-children. If anyone has any questions about sourdough, they are welcome to call Naomi.
