“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Creme Constance

 

Ingredients

1 1/2 oz butter
1 1/2 oz onion, finely chopped
1 tsp curry powder
1/2 oz flour
15 fl milk
15 fl chicken stock
5 tbsp coconut milk
1 salt & pepper

TO FINISH

4 tbsp cream
4 slice lemon



 

Preparation

Despite the simplicity of this recipe, it is delightful and subtle,
although this depends very much upon the quality of the basic
ingredients used." IMH
Melt butter, and soften the very finely chopped onion over gentle
heat. When tender, but not browned, add curry powder (which should be
of good quality, and ideally home made) and continue cooking 1-2
mins. Stir in flour and cook to make a roux for a further minute or
so. : Remove from heat and when slightly cooled, gradually stir in
stock and milk. Return to heat and stir while bringing to the boil.
When boiling, reduce heat and simmer gently 15 minutes or so.
Add coconut milk (or creamed coconut if the milk is unavailable)
and stir to incorporate. Strain, correct seasoning and reheat. Serve
with a little cream marbled on the surface, and a slice of lemon.
