SKIING THIS WINTER If you are a skier, it’s that time again. Already, snows have hit the main ski areas of the Western United States and Canada and with the so-called “Godzilla El Niño” we will get more this season than the last few. In the northern portion of our state is the well known Snowbowl, located on the western slope of Mount Humphreys, the tallest point in the state. Humphreys is the recognizable point on the San Francisco Peaks, which are north of Flagstaff. Some of the Snowbowl statistics include a base elevation of 9,200 feet with a summit elevation of 11,500 feet. The vertical drop is 2,300 feet with 777 skiable acres. It offers chairlifts for beginner, intermediate and advanced skiers. The average snowfall is 260 inches. This winter it should be more.

COVER STORY

HOLIDAY HUSTLE & BUSTLE OK — no looking back — the holiday season has arrived and it gets a little mind-boggling when you start trying to just list (chronologically) all the events planned for the next several weeks ... And the school stuff isn’t even included ... Well, here it is, the Holiday Event Round-up as it stands Friday, Nov. 20. BELL RINGERS NEEDED

It is a holiday tradition that has been part of the Rim Country for many years. The local chapter of the Salvation Army is in need of volunteers to serve as bell ringers in front of a number of area stores starting the day after Thanksgiving. Please consider finding some time this holiday season to help Payson Salvation Army fill all of the time slots. To register as a bell ringer, contact John Morgan, 928-474-8454. COMMUNITY THANKSGIVING DINNER

The public is invited to the Payson Elks Lodge’s annual Thanksgiving Dinner Thursday, Nov. 26 at 1206 N. Beeline Highway. Seating is available at 11:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m., or 1:30 p.m. No ticket required. SWISS VILLAGE CHRISTMAS LIGHTING

Swiss Village’s Annual Christmas Lighting Tradition will kick off on Nov. 27 and 28. During the days there will be a variety of events. Also on tap are a full carnival in the northern Swiss

Village area with rides, vendors and giveaways. And of course the jolly old elf himself — Santa Claus — will make an appearance just in advance of the lighting ceremony. There will also be roaming entertainment such as magicians, face painters, Christmas carolers and more — among these will be members of the Payson Choral Society, possibly previewing some of the wonderful music they will offer at their annual Christmas concert (see more about that later). Each business will have some free giveaways and some crafts for kids to participate in set up in front of their locations. Merchants will also have Christmas trees decorated and then given to families in need at the end of the event. During the event there will be locations where people can vote for their favorite tree by placing donations of canned goods under them.

ASK THE CHEF | RICHARD K. ERSKINE, CEC

GARLIC, GRAVY AND PIE CRUST “Ask the Chef” is a new feature for The Rim Review by Richard K. Erskine, CEC, the chef/instructor for the Payson High School Culinary Arts Program. Q: Are the peeled garlic cloves that they sell in the grocery good to use and how do you store it? Jessica S. A: I personally do not like the pre-peeled garlic or shallots. I believe they lose so much of their flavor in the jar. You can peel garlic in the matter of a few seconds when you need it. Keep the bulb garlic in a cool dry place and break off the amount of cloves you need. Place the cloves on a flat surface and take a flat side of a chef knife and smash the clove — do not over smash it. The peel will fall right off now and then it’s ready to use. Shallots can be peeled with a small paring knife. First cut the root end off and then peel the skin away. If you do buy the peeled cloves in the store then you would need to store it tightly sealed in the jar in the refrigerator. ABOUT GARLIC

The word garlic comes from Old English garleac, meaning “spear leek.” Dating back over 6,000 years, it is native to Central Asia, and has long been a staple in the Mediterranean region, as well as a frequent seasoning in Asia, Africa and Europe. Egyptians worshiped garlic and placed clay models of garlic bulbs in the tomb of Tutankhamen. Garlic was so highly prized, it was even used as currency. Folklore holds that garlic repelled vampires, protected against the Evil Eye, and warded off jealous nymphs said to terrorize pregnant women and engaged maidens. And let us not forget to mention the alleged aphrodisiacal powers of garlic, which have been extolled through the ages. Surprisingly, garlic was frowned upon by foodie snobs in the United States until the first quarter of the 20th century, being found almost exclusively in ethnic dishes in working-class neighborhoods. But, by 1940, America had embraced garlic, finally recognizing its value as not only a minor seasoning, but as a major ingredient in recipes. GARLIC TIPS AND HINTS

Believe it or not, one raw garlic clove, finely minced or pressed releases more flavor than a dozen cooked whole cloves. When garlic cloves are cooked or baked whole, the flavor mellows into a sweet, almost nutty

flavor that hardly resembles any form of pungency. This nutty flavor makes a surprisingly nice addition to desserts, such as brownies or even ice cream. Cooked, whole, unpierced cloves barely have any aroma at all, while raw garlic is the strongest in flavor. When sautéing garlic, be very careful not to burn it. The flavor turns intensely bitter, and you’ll have to start over. An easy rule of thumb to remember regarding the potency of the flavor of garlic is: The smaller you cut it, the stronger the flavor. Chopping finely and/ or pressing a clove exposes more surfaces to the air, causing a chemical reaction to produce that strong aroma and potent flavor.

GARLIC ROASTED CHICKEN

1, 5- to 6-pound roasting chicken salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 heads garlic, cut in 1/2 crosswise 1 lemon, halved 1/2 large onion, thickly sliced 4 carrots cut diagonally into 2-inch chunks 2 large Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 6 pieces — or any potatoes you have or like to use 4 tablespoons butter, melted Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Pat the outside of the chicken dry with paper towels. Liberally salt and pepper the inside of the chicken and stuff the cavity with the all the garlic and lemon. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Place it in a roasting pan just large enough to hold it and the vegetables. Scatter the onion slices, carrots and potatoes around the chicken. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken for 1-1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove the chicken to a platter and cover with aluminum foil. Place the vegetables back in the oven and continue cooking for an additional 15 minutes. When the vegetables are cooked, carve the chicken and place the slices on the platter surrounded by the vegetables. Drizzle some pan juices over the chicken and vegetables.

GARLIC ICE CREAM

Makes 1 quart Prep Time: 20 minutes; cook time: 20 minutes; total time: 40 minutes 2 cups whole milk 1 clove garlic, minced 1 vanilla bean, split in half, and the seeds scraped out and reserved 1 cup heavy cream 1-1/2 cups granulated sugar 8 egg yolks Put milk, garlic, vanilla pod and seeds in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and remove immediately. In mixing bowl, whisk the cream, sugar and egg yolks until combined. Whisking constantly, slowly strain the hot milk mixture into the egg and sugar mixture. Return the mixture to the pan and stir continuously over low heat until it thickens slightly, and coats the back of a spoon,

Pies are a part of most Thanksgiving traditions. In this new Rim Review feature, “Ask the Chef,” Chef Richard Erskine, the instructor for the Payson High Culinary Arts Program shares his Foolproof Pie Dough recipe. about 10-12 minutes. Do not boil! Pour in a bowl and chill over an ice bath. Pour into ice cream machine and churn until done. Freeze until ready to serve.

Q: What is the secret to making flavorful gravy? Jacque L, Payson A: Well you have to start off with a flavorful liquid known as a stock or broth before you start to thicken it with your thickening agent such as a roux, flour or cornstarch. Then after you have cooked out the flavor from the thickening agent (sometimes if your using flour there will be a flour taste until it is cooked) then you would season it to taste at the very end if you do this too early the moisture could evaporate some and become too salty. Q: I have an abundance of parsley and I want to know if I can freeze parsley? Karen B, Pine A: Yes you can wash it and let it dry and then you can chop it and put it in small ziplock bags and freeze it. You can then take out small amounts as needed. Don’t forget you can also freeze dry it or dry it in a low oven. Q: Can you freeze cooked shrimp? Karen B, Pine A: Yes you can. They will have a slightly different texture due to the freezing. Just make sure the shrimp were fresh when you cooked them. While we are talking about shrimp I had someone ask me about freezing scallops some time ago, so lets talk about that also. If you bought them fresh I would say that it would be OK but don’t be disappointed if they are not quite as fantastic as the first time.

Generally speaking scallops don’t do well cooking then freezing for later in a mixed dish. Shrimp and crab do very well cooked and frozen, but scallops get a bit mushy and sometimes a bit aromatic. If the scallops were bought frozen, thawed then cooked I would say don’t bother. Q: Is frozen food safe in general? A: Food stored constantly at 0 degrees will always be safe. Only the quality suffers with lengthy freezer storage. Freezing keeps food safe by slowing the movement of molecules, causing microbes to enter a dormant stage. Freezing preserves food for extended periods because it prevents the growth of microorganisms that cause both food spoilage and foodborne illness. Q: I have always had problems making flaky piecrust. Do you have a foolproof method? Ashley H, Payson A: There is a method I just tried this week that uses vodka as part of the liquid. The alcohol prevents the glutens from forming in the dough and therefore your crust comes out flaky and crisp. When you are making piecrust, make sure everything is ice cold including the liquids and butter and shortening. Q: I have balsamic vinegar that has “solidified.” Is there any way to convert it back to liquid state? Kathy G, Payson A: Well when you say solidified it’s hard to tell if you mean that it has evaporated some of the water out or it has been put in a

cold place and congealed. If it has congealed you can warm it up and it will go back to a liquid state. If it has evaporated you can take some new vinegar and add small amounts until it is the consistency that you want. Some chefs like the vinegar syrupy so decide what consistency you want first. Balsamic vinegar that is thickened is wonderful to drizzle over ice cream or fresh fruit.

FOOLPROOF PIE DOUGH Makes one 9-inch double-crust pie 2-1/2 cups (12-1/2 ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon table salt 2 tablespoons sugar 12 tablespoons (1-1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch slices 1/2 cup cold vegetable shortening, cut into 4 pieces 1/4 cup cold vodka 1/4 cup cold water Process 1-1/2 cups flour, salt and sugar in food processor until combined, about 2 one-second pulses. Add butter and shortening and process until homogeneous dough just starts to collect in uneven clumps, about 15 seconds (dough will resemble cottage cheese curds and there should be no uncoated flour). Scrape bowl with rubber spatula and redistribute dough evenly around processor blade. Add remaining cup flour and pulse until mixture is evenly distributed around bowl and mass of dough has been broken up, 4 to 6 quick pulses. Empty mixture into medium bowl. Sprinkle vodka and water over mixture. With rubber spatula, use folding motion to mix, pressing down on dough until dough is slightly tacky and sticks together. Divide dough into two even balls and flatten each into 4-inch disk. Wrap each in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 45 minutes or up to 2 days.

Organizers are asking guests to bring gifts for the museum: donate time to help reglaze the windows or replace some of the wood; help refurbish the walls with new slats, caulking and paint; new display units and materials to place in them would be appreciated; and funds are also acceptable. Get tickets in advance from historical society board members or at Braswell’s Chuckwagon.

Several “gift trees” are springing up around the Rim Country. Once again, the Salvation Army’s Angel Tree will be at National Bank of Arizona, 804 S. Beeline Highway. Plans are to have the tree up by the day after Thanksgiving. The “Angel” tags on the tree are supplied by area social services and the public schools. “Santas” for the “Angels” are invited to come into the bank take a tag (or more) and purchase the items requested for the child. Details on return of the gifts for distribution will be on the tag. Another “Angel Tree” is planned at Chris Walsh’s Edward Jones office, 411 S. Beeline Highway, Suite B, Payson. “Santas” for this “Angel Tree” are invited to help less fortunate seniors in the community or the children passing through the Time Out Shelter. Stop by during regular business hours from Friday, Nov. 27 CONTINUED ON PAGE 7

Holiday events CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6

through Wednesday, Dec. 16. Collect a tag and then shop for the “angel” in need. Wrapped gifts should be returned to Walsh’s office, along with the tag, by Friday, Dec. 18 for delivery. A “Senior Angel Christmas Tree” is already up in the Pine Strawberry Thrift Shop. The tags on the tree are “gift guides” for some of the area’s seniors, including those that may be residing in care facilities. Choose a card, sign it out with the thrift shop cashier and look around the shop to see if there may be something in stock that suits the needs of the “senior angel” or keep the guide for shopping elsewhere. Wrapped gifts for this program need to be returned to the thrift shop by Saturday, Dec. 5. Organizers are still searching for those who might benefit from the program. If you know of a senior who needs some extra love for the holiday, let the folks at the thrift shop know about them by calling 928-476-4633. The Pine Strawberry Thrift Shop, located in the PS Community Center on North Highway 87 in the center of Pine, is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Wednesday through Saturday. RIM COUNTRY FIRE ANGELS TOY DRIVE

In the past one of the biggest toy drives in the Rim Country has been associated with the very popular Tamales for Toys events. Unfortunately, the Rim Country Fire Angels are unable to produce the tamales for this year’s toy drive due to scheduling conflicts and time constraints. However the need is still there for toys for the area’s children in need, and the group is still asking the public to donate a new unwrapped toy for a boy or girl, for ages 1-15 or make a monetary donation. The Rim Country Fire Angels is a 501(c)(3) organization. Donations — both unwrapped, new toys and monetary contributions — may be dropped off at Fire Station 11 on West Main Street, Payson; the Payson Town Hall main lobby or the Payson Community Development office; or Kohl’s Ranch Lodge. If you have any questions, please contact Monica Savage at 928-472-5120. A Toy Drive Day is planned at the Payson Elks, 1206 N. Beeline Highway, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, Dec. 12. Monetary donations can be mailed to Rim Country Fire Angels, 603 E. Hunter Dr., Payson, AZ 85541. ELKS NEW YEAR’S EVE EVENT

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) This year, instead of jumping into the whole holiday prep scene, move in a little at a time. You’ll appreciate the sense of control you’re more likely to enjoy. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) The separation between the Bovine’s head and heart is never as far apart as it seems. Both senses work best when they come out of logic and honesty. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) The best way to keep those pre-holiday pressures under control is to just say no to taking on new tasks while you’re still trying to work with a heap of others. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) News means a change might be on its way, but what does it hold? Don’t just ask questions; make sure you get answers you can trust. LEO (July 23 to August 22) Old friends and new have one thing in common: Both your longtime and newly minted pals have much wisdom to impart. VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) With time running out, this is a good time for you to show ‘em all what those Virgo super-organizational skills can do. LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Librans and holidays are made for each other, especially if children and animals are going to be part of your joyous season. SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) Time is getting too short to allow a spat to taint the holiday season. Restart your relationship and reschedule holiday fun times. SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Seeking advice is laudable. You might learn far more than you thought you could. Stay with it. CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Continuing to assess changes works toward your getting your new project up and ready. Trusted colleagues remain ready to help. AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) That new situation needs a lot of attention, but it’s worth it. This is a very good time for you to involve the arts in what you do. PISCES (February 19 to March 20) It might be a good idea to slow your hectic holiday pace so that you don’t rush past what -- or who -- you’re hoping to rush toward. BORN THIS WEEK: Others pick up on your confidence in yourself, which inspires them to believe in you and your special gifts.
