1 “KITCHEN KORNER”!
Taken from “eating around the
world” compiled by
GRADY ROBINETTE
HILL TOP CAFE — Wasilla
If you will save these recipes
for your scrap book you’ll soon
have an excellent cook book.
CHILI CON CARNE
Though this savory dish has a
Spanish name it is as American
as the Star Spangled Banner. In
early South West U.S.A. the
Spanish speaking Americans had
an abundance of cheap meat
(sounds corny now don’t it) but
little else. The Indians showed
them how to mix certain herbs
and condiments native to that
part of the country that they
might make a monotonous diet
more bearable.
Chili (two to one the type set
ter spells it chile) was the result
of much experiment. Many meat
concoctions came and went but
the husky, delicately flavored
chili con carne is a favorite of
many today. Chili is just what
the Spanish name, implies, chili
(pepper) con (with) carne (meat)
Genuine chili was never anything
but pepper with meat. But in
later years and through necessity
caused by rising meat prices and
because of their high food value
beans were added. Once beans
were added other adulterations
followed, meat stretchers, ama
teur cooks and cheap eating
houses took their due and today
it is difficult to find a good bowl
of chili.
If you would treat yourself to
a meat dish fit for any king be
low is the original recipe.
Take one lb. coarsely chopped
lean meat (do not use hamburger)
1 cup beef suet
4 tablespoons tomato paste
Vi teaspoon comino seed
% oregano leaves (rubbed)
6 cloves — garlic
2 heaping tbsp. chili powder
Braise meat gently in suet. Add
tomato paste. Let simmer 20
minutes add condiments, salt and
pepper to taste Adv.
year’s essays are expected to re
veal a similar understanding of
the effect of the salmon industry
on Alaska’s economy.
