Fish is very perishable

By PATRICIA M. BRAMAN Extension Agent, Home Ec. A popular winter sport for men, ice fishing, may not be so popular with the women who must prepare the fish for storage. But preparing fish for future use i# simple if you follow basic rules. The first rule to remember Gamma Sigmas were busy in November and December November and December were busy months far the Gamma Sigma • chapter of ESA in Syracuse. A home decorating party was held in the home of Ann Hapner to benefit the Gillespie family in North Webster on November 16. The representative for the decorating company shared ideas and show items with the group Another benefit “party" was held in early December by Diane Cripe. A plastics ware showing was attended by club members and a percentage of the proceeds was turned over to ESA for their holiday philanthropic efforts. The December meeting of the group was held as a dinner at the Beacon on December 15. The occasion was highlighted by a silent (and not so silent) auction of handmade Christmas articles brought by every club member. The revealing of the year’s secret sisters and a gift exchange also added to the fun. A jewel pin ceremony followed dinner, in which four pledges, Mrs. Bob Ahms, Mrs. Steve Elliott, Mrs. Wade Logan and Mrs. Tom Thornburg, were formally initiated into JSSA. New pledges, April Newcomer and Jane Wiezcork, were also welcomed to the group. The next meeting of the Gamma Sigma chapter of ESA will be January 19.

concerning fish is that it is a very perishable product. All fish, due to their tender, delicate structure are easily damaged if roughly handled. Care taken early in the catch will aid in a better conditioned fish whether used fresh or conserved for future use. Fish freeze well if they are cleaned quickly, kept cold, and frozen quickly. If it is impossible to clean and freeze at once, keep under refrigeration, but no longer than 24 hours. Never allow fish to become warm as spoilage progresses rapidly. Fish should be bled as soon as - possible after catching. All the blood may be drawn out of the fish by soaking in a brine solution made with two tsp. salt to one quart wate from 10 minutes to one hour. A stronger brine will make fish firmer and harder. Lean fish should be rinsed in salt water (about one cup salt to one gallon water) to preserve color and texture and prevent drip or leakage. Fatty fish may be dipped from 10-20 seconds in a solution made by mixing one tsp. pure ascorbic acid to one gallon water. This solution prevents the development of rancidity. Freezing fish can be done by two methods. One is to freeze in
