Damons? Plums?
The message
from Judith in France contains these words: Proper trifle please. I don't do proper trifle, but it goes thusly: Break-up some dry sponge in the bottom of a deeply cut lead-crystal bowl. Molish a jelly double-strength, then add about half the jelly's volume of cream sherry. (Don't skimp - British 'sherry' WILL NOT DO. Pour jelly over the sponge and allow to set. (You can have a layer of jam in the very bottom, if desired. Suggest strawberry is best.) Molish an egg custard, and pour it ver the jelly before it (the custard) sets, but not so that it is hot enough to destroy your best lead crystal bowl. Leave to set, and cool. Cover with whipped double cream. Note: REAL trifle doesn't contain fruit salad. Also note: My version does... .... and mosht of it pre-schteeped in schnappsh, or calvadosh, or shimilar. -- Rusty Direct reply to: horrid dot squeak snailything zetnet point co period uk Separator in search of a sig |
