By MARY DELANEY Of The Examiner Cooking is love affair between the chef and the pan says Pol Martin master chef and author of many books onthe art of cook ing In his case the love affair is one not so much of passion but of flirtation and teasing affec tion enhanced by laughter and several glasses of wine Speaking to large audience in the Blue Flame Room of the Consumers Gas building Iusday night Martin mixed in liberal helping of humor with his recipes telling the group cooking is fun Ther is nothing serious in cooking The philosophy or therapeutic value of cooking was as much part of his demonstra tion as the recipes and techniques themselves Cooking he said should be joy It should not leave you isolated in the kitchen while your guests entertain themselves in the living room It should not give you frown line from reading the fine print everytime you follow recipe or ulcers from worrying whether it will succeed Never panic in your kitchen he warned If you feel the dinner will be disaster serve wine Noone will notice after several glasses of wine Cooking is basic Its technique Once you know the technique you can cook And once you can cook you can experiment Its not necessary to follow recipe he said If you dont have an ingredient go without it Use another vegetable If veal is called for and you dont have any use pork If you dont have pork use beef Its all mat ter of confidence Once you know the basics you can tell by the texture if recipe has the right blend of wet and dry ingredients fin er di in the pot will tell you if the recipg needzpfndore spice To prove his point Martin did not use measuring cup throughout the entire demonstration Wine was poured straight from the bottle into the frying pan except when it made it to his glass first salt was measured by the pinch one in the bowl one over the shoulder and the half cup of water came directly to the pan Just think of the sayings in dirty dishes Many other articles besides the measuring cup become obsolete to the good cook Fancy gadgets are not necessary said Martin You shouldnt buy much but you shouldnt buy Jugk0 Essentials in the kitchen of good cook are the whisk chopping board good set of knives pots and pans that are good con ductors of heat Martin believes in doing all cooking on high heat and consequently rules out the new nonstick materials Copper pans would be nice but at $150 for one frying pan they are out of range for most of us and of course cork screw He also uses wooden spoons rather than plstic after an unfortunate experience in which one long stir spoon melted down to stub in the hot sauce on the stove He praised gas saying it gives the cook the greatst control over heat When you turn it off it is off immediately and the food stops cook ing Overcooked food is perhaps the biggest taboo in the culinary world Martin is standup comic almost as much as chef but the total effect is more than the sum of his parts He appeals to our wit our eye our noses and our taste buds all at once Add the delicious French accent and you have an evenings entertainment to make Graham Kerr eat his heart out Oro Horticultural Societv concerned about winter birds The pot luck

carpet manufac turers name youll be hearing about more more in the future TORONTO CP Hhe publics need for medical help to become pregnant has soared this decade but there is no easy answer to why Theories divide into two camps that better informa tion arid frankness about the subject has encouraged more couples to come forward who probably would have rejected treatment 23 years ago or that delayed childbearing is the culprit Estimates are that between 11 and I4 per cent of couples who want children can expect difficulties Blocked or damaged fallo pian tubes and irregular ovula tion

onethird of cases no cause is ever found While infertility is not sickness or disease it has al tracted so much medical atten tion that the profession has elevated it to subspeciality At the medical centre at McMaster University in Hamilton the unit is so busy that at one point moratorium was placed orl applications But its director Dr John larrell does not bclicvc therc has been an increase in

angel food cake out of the pan make mine from scratch and they are so good and would like to know if there IS way to remove them without spoiling the looks of the cakes MRS DI DEAR MRS DI do not know how you are removing your cakes from the pans The following method works perfectly for me so you might try it After removing the cake from the oven immediately invert the pan with the cake in it and let it hang in the pan until completely cool which is usually about an hour Then loosen the cake from the pan by slipping long thin spatula down close against the pan pull it out and repeat until it is loose all around Do same around the center tube Shake inverted pan sharply as you hold your hand under it to catch the cake when it drops out then turn right onto cake platter POLLY DEAR POLLY Now that the cost of facial tissues has priced them right out of my reach use my husbands old handkerchiefs for wiping off excess makeup and blotting lipstick The handkerchiefs can be washed over and over and their softness seems extra kind to my skin Also many worn bath towels have still usable section large enough to make kitchen aprons rehem the piece and simply string cord through the top hem for tie SOPHIE DEAR POLLY Vases or pots holding dried flowers tend to tip over easily fill such containers with fish gravel that comes in colors and can be bought at dime stores This looks pretty holds the stems in place and there are no more acci dents El DEAR POLLY enjoy and use many of the Pointers On recent trip used the one that suggested colored wool pom poms on each piece of luggage for easy identification At Prestwick Airport in Scotland when porter asked which lug gage was mine just replied that they were the bags with pompoms on them It was very easy for him to identify mine Another favorite is that great Pointer about using cloth soaked in white vinegar to press out hemlines that are being lowered My Pointer today is one have used dozens of times but this time my married daughter was watching as painted the outside of my house had just wasth and cleaned my paint brushes for the day when noticed big blob of green aint on the white trim am quite messy so unconsciously took facial tissue out of my apron pocket dipped it lightly in the white paint and dabbed it on the green blob My daughter laughed and said That is good idea that you should send to Polly So here it is Today reader asked about water marks on the lining of her drapes When had this problem dry cleaner told me that they were just about the only marks that cannot be removed JEAN Polly wrll send you
