Page 12 THE EIGHTH TRIBE November, 1977 Follow these easy rules for successful frozen fish cookery: When buying frozen fish, pick out undamaged packages that feel solid. There should be no sign of drying or freezer burn. If fish is to be sauteed or fried and must be defrosted, defrost overnight in refrigerator .. . and use immediately. When baking, steaming or poaching, as in the following recipe, cook directly from the frozen state to preserve the natural juices and the delicate fresh flavor. Above all — avoid overcooking. Fish is ready to serve as soon as it becomes opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Home Economists from the North Atlantic Seafood Association representing the countries of Norway, Denmark, Iceland and Canada, have tasted and adapted Vajda’s recipe for successful consumer use. * * • POACHED NORTH ATLANTIC SOLE 2 lbs. frozen North Atlantic Sole 2 c. chicken broth 1 c. water 1 (8 oz.) bottle clam juice 1 carrot, sliced 1 slice onion 1 bay leaf salt and pepper Place frozen fillets and remaining ingredients in shallow covered pan. Simmer 14 to 18 minutes or until fish becomes opaque and flakes easily when tested with a fork. Gently separate fillets halfway through cooking time. The need for centralization was indeed great. During the five decades following Kurszán’s and Árpád’s death, the power of the princes had dwindled, while the power of a number of tribal chiefs had risen considerably. Thus, by the middle of the tenth century, horka Bulcsú appears to have carried more weight than the ruling prince himself. This is also reflected in some contemporary Western sources where he, and even his subordinate Lél, are referred to as the “king” or “kings” of the Magyars. (Győrffy: Honfoglalásról, p. 256.) Moreover, for most of these five decades, we are not even sure as to who the ruling princes were at a given time, except that they all came from the Árpád Dynasty. By 955, however, Árpád’s grandson, Prince Taksony was at the helm. And Taksony took the chance offered him by the defeat and death of his most serious rivals, Bulcsú and Lél, to start the Magyars on the road toward national unity. This policy of centralization and nation-building was continued by his son Géza (972-997). Yet, the major task of molding the Magyar tribes and clans into a true nation was left to his grandson Yajk, who — under his Christian name Stephen (St. Stephen) — became one of Hungary’s greatest medieval rulers. 68 Friday, Oct. 29, 1977 Dear Mr. Chomos: “First of all, let me thank you for the very nice write up in the Eighth Tribe about the Geauga County Hungarian Culture Club.
