Recipe Ingredients
GENOISE LAYER
4 large eggs
1 pinch salt
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup cake flour
3 tbsp cornstarch
LEMON FILLING
3/4 cup lemon juice
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
6 egg yolks
1 1/4 cup whipping cream
STRAWBERRY SYRUP
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1 pt strawberries
2 tbsp kirsch
1 cup toasted sliced almonds
2 pt strawberries
1 cup whipping cream for finishing
Recipe Preparation
FOR THE GENOISE: Preheat oven to 350F. Break the eggs into the bowl
of an electric mixer and whisk in salt, then sugar. Place the bowl
over a pan of simmering water and whisk until just lukewarm. Whip by
machine until cold and increased in volume, about 4-to-5 minutes. Mix
cake flour and cornstarch. Sift over egg foam in 3 or 4 additions,
folding it in with a rubber spatula. Pour the batter into a buttered,
paper-lined 10-inch round pan and level it off. Bake the Genoise
layer about 30 minutes until it is well risen, golden and beginning
to shrink away from sides. Unmold immediately and cool on a rack.
Bake and cool the Genoise layer. FOR THE LEMON FILLING: Combine lemon
juice, sugar and butter in a non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a boil
over low heat. Whisk yolks in a bowl and whisk in 1/3 mixture. Return
remaining lemon mixture to a boil over low heat and whisk in yolk
mixture. Continue cooking several minutes, whisking constantly, until
thickened and just at a boil. Pour into a bowl, press plastic wrap
against surface and chill. Immediately before using, whip cream and
fold into lemon curd. FOR THE STRAWBERRY SYRUP: Combine water and
sugar in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Rinse, hull and puree
strawberries. Add puree and kirsch to syrup off the heat. Strain and
chill. To assemble, rinse remaining berries and reserve six for a
decoration. Hull and slice remaining berries. Cut Genoise into thin
vertical slices. Place a layer of cake slices in a glass serving
bowl. Moisten cake with syrup and strew with 1/4 each of the sliced
berries, almonds and jam. Spread with 1/4 of the lemon filling.
Repeat with remaining ingredients, ending with a layer of cake slices
and syrup. Whip remaining cream and spread half on the trifle.
Decorate border with remaining cream (pipe with a star tube) and
reserved strawberries. Chill until serving time.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting made easyOne useful tip is to drink plenty of water. From time to time at some stage in a hectic morning, you guess that you want a snack but in fact you might just need a refreshing glass of water or orange squash. The feelings of needing food and needing a drink are quite similar, but one of the two can lead to a broken diet and the other is ok.
The argument against low carbohydrate diets
Its all the rage, but it is truly safe for you?
Remember, one point that is frequently overlooked, it is extremely hard (although certainly not impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a low carb diet.
Many scientific studies over the last few years have proved that exessive consumption of animal fat can lead to higher probability of cancer, coronary problems and other serious illnesses.
Foods containing allyl sulfides
( includes garlic, leeks and welsh onion)
The onion and garlic range of vegetables is rich in allyl sulphides, a chemical which experts believe could be linked to a reduced risk of stomach and colon cancer.
Even though there is little definitive proof obtainable, allyl sulfides are also thought by many researchers to reduce symptoms with blood circulation, sterilization and diabetes.
Foods containing allyl sulfides are also good for weight loss, so should be included in your diet system.
