The word shish is Turkish for "skewer," and kebab is Turkish for small pieces of meat which are usually grilled or roasted. Actu- ally, in this country, all sorts of skewered foods, meat and other- wise, are referred to simply as "kebabs." With kebabs, most of the prep- aration is done in advance and ev- erything is pre-cut into bite-size pieces making it particularly easy to serve and eat. Furthermore, a wide variety of kebabs can be made by "mixing and matching" an almost un- limited assortment of foods. For instance, cubes of meats, poultry, or fish, possibly combined with vegetables or fruit, can be used for a main dish; fruit and pound cake cubes might make a nice dessert; and cubes of cheese could be part of a dairy meal. If smaller skewers and pieces of food are used, the same combina- tions could be served as hors d'oeuvres or appetizers. Kebabs can also be varied somewhat simply by changing their marinades or accompanying sauces, or by serving them in different ways. For example, meat kababs could be presented over rice, with a baked potato, or inside pita bread. Following are tome lists of in- gredients that could be used for such a do-it-yourself get-together: A Long, thin, baby (or Japanese) eggplant, out crosswise into sections (but not peeled) Cherry tomatoes Sweet green, red and yellow bell peppers, cut into squares Large stuffed green olives Small white onions, peeled and parcooked in boiling water Broccoli florets, parcooked in boil- ing water Cauliflower florets, parcooked in boiling water Canned artichoke hearts Very siriall "new" potatoes, par- 'cooked in boiling water Jerusalem artichokes, parcooked . intoiling water , Brussels sprouts, parcooked in boiling water FRUITS MEATS, ETC. (Note: Marinating will add flavor and tenderness to most of the following.) Chicken- or turkey breast, boned and cut into cubes Beef, veal and/or lamb cubes Calf's liver (kashered), cut into cubes Chicken livers (kashered), sepa- rated into lobes Meatballs Hot dogs, cut into sections Salami cubes Firm-fleshed fish, such as halibut or salmon, cut into cubes Canned mandarin orange sec- tions Fresh orange sections Melon cubes, such as cantaloupe, honeydew, muskmelon Barely ripe banana sections (coated lightly with lemon or orange juice to prevent darken- ing) Small, canned (spiced) crab apples Canned pineapple cubes Canned apricot halves Fresh pineapple, peeled and cubed Fresh mango and papaya, peeled, seeded and cubed Firm apples, cut into cubes (but not peeled) Firm pears, cut into cubes (but not peeled) Avocado, peeled and cut into cubes (coated lightly with lemon or orange juice to pre- vent darkening) Canned litchi (or lichee) nuts Whole strawberries Large seedless grapes Dried fruits, such as apricots, prunes, pineapple or papaya chunks, figs, dates • Below are a few recipe ideas to get you started on a kebab party. (Note: Metal or wooden skewers of any desired size may be used for these kebabs. When using wooden skewers for grilled or broiled kebabs, it's a good idea to soak them first in water for about 30 minutes. To remove the cooked food from the skewers, slide a fork down the length of each skewer. VEGETABLES, ETC. (Note: Some of the following should be "parcooked," i.e. cooked briefly in boiling water, in ad- vance, to soften them slightly so that they will cook through dur- ing grilling.)
