Herb Tip |
Eat little, sleep sound. |
| Iranian Proverb |
"Americans, more than any other culture on earth, are cookbook cooks; we learn to make our meals not from any oral tradition, but from a text. The just-wed cook brings to the new household no carefully copied collection of the family's cherished recipes, but a spanking new edition of ‘Fannie Farmer’ or ‘The Joy of Cooking’." |
| John Thorne, American food writer |

Beat egg yoks and 1/3 cup sugar in stainless stell bowl over hot
water bath or top half of double boiler until they lighten in color
and become fluffy (about 2 minutes). Add gelatin that has been
softened in gin to egg mixture and continue beating for another 2
minutes. Remove from heat and add grapefruit juice, rind, and sour
cream. Mix thoroughly. REfrigerate for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whip
cream with 3 tbsp sugar. Beat egg whites until they form firm peaks.

chilled gelatin mixture. Mix will. Fold in egg whites. Chill for 4-6
hours. Serve in parfait glasses, alternating mousse with layers of
sliced strawberries.
