When one has tasted watermelon he knows what the angels eat. |
| Mark Twain |
"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |

My mother's menu consisted of two choices: Take it or leave it. |

The greatest delight the fields and woods minister is the suggestion of an occult relation between man and the vegetable. I am not alone and unacknowledged. They nod to me and I to them. |

I would rather live in Russia on black bread and vodka than in the United States at the best hotels. America knows nothing of food, love or art. |

Bring water to a boil and pour over saffron threads. Allow to cool to
105; combine with yeast and sugar. Let set 15 minutes. Mix melted
butter, salt, flour, hazelnuts, eggs and yeast mixture. Beat by hand
until smooth. Place in buttered bowl, turn, cover and set in
draft-free place to rise until doubled, about 1 to 1-1/2 hours. Punch
down and shape into 2 loaves. This can be braided as well. Brush each
loaf with the egg yolk wash, let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
Bake at 400 for 30 minutes, until deep golden brown. Cool.
