:::::::::::::::::::::::::::: FOOD FUNNY :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Today's food funny came from a reader know to me only as "DRSPAGHETI",
one of my most prolific (and mysterious) contributors.
The Lemon Picker
The woman applying for a job in a Florida lemon grove seemed way too
qualified for the job.
"Look Miss," said the foreman, "have you any actual experience in
picking lemons?"
"Well... as a matter if fact, Yes !" she replied. "I've been
divorced three times."
::::::::::::::::::::::::::: TODAY'S RECIPE ::::::::::::::::::::::::::
This is the favorite dessert of Basil St. Jacques. He enjoys it so
much that he named his dog after it.
Souffle Grand Marnier
8 egg yolks
3/4 cup (180 ml) sugar
1/2 cup Grand Marnier or liqueur of your choice
10 egg whites
Butter and sugar to coat the baking dish
Beat the egg yolks and sugar in a pan held over (not in) a pan of
boiling water until they form a wide ribbon when a wooden spoon is
inserted and lifted. Remove from the heat and stir in the liqueur.
Beat the egg whites until stiff and gently fold into the egg yolk
mixture. Coat the inside of an 8 inch (20 cm) souffle dish or
straight-sided baking dish with butter and sugar. Transfer the egg
mixture to the baking dish and bake in a preheated 400F (200C) oven
for 12 to 15 minutes, until firm. Serve immediately. Serves 4 to 6.
