First,
a second dessert! : lemon-scented "eggs" iced cream with powdered Schaffenberger cocoa and a plasticy blob of Robert Rothschild raspberry chocolate sauce, unheated....... Then, a few
Chili-hot small dish samplers for a late luncheon......another tribute to Parts Unknown.......especially hot........particularily the braised collard greens with chili flakes, hot garlic, tomatoes cooked in sriracha chili sauce, tortilla pasta rice with chili oil and tamarind paste, black beans in walnut oil, yard scallions....marinated in rice vinegar, and fava beans Hannibal Lecter, with grated aged parmesan cheese...with a solacing side dish of green dragon-enhanced Bhindi Masala with ground mace and star anise and black salt.......For 'dessert', a sponge cake soaked with mango iced cream, refrozen, then sliced and served with whipped cream, flavored with raspberry and apricot liquors.......This dessert....a tribute to my friend Hill Irving....I miss our many conversations about cooking, Films and really alternative music, which spanned almost a half century.........We once had a telephone dinner party, wherein we cooked then ate foods.......hundreds of miles apart, watching Babette's Feast and commenting on the "Spread" and Repression.......

The 'salmon patty' of wild caught salmon, chopped cilantro stems, pimentos, red peppers and quail eggs, dipped in egg yolk, breaded in spicy seasoned bread crumbs, fried in herb-infused olive oil, then topped with sweet and hot corn salsa sprinklied with rasam powder.......was so tasty that I ate all 4 of them!
