"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?" |
| Alice B. Toklas |
To the old saying that man built the house but woman made of it a "home" might be added the modern supplement that woman accepted cooking as a chore but man has made of it a recreation. |

I do not like broccoli. And I haven't liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm President of the United States and I'm not going to eat any more broccoli. |

Nobody seems more obsessed by diet than our anti-materialistic, otherworldly, New Age spiritual types. But if the material world is merely illusion, an honest guru should be as content with Budweiser and bratwurst as with raw carrot juice, tofu and seaweed slime. |

Combine the seasoning mix together in a bowl. Stir the dipping sauce
ingredients together in a second bowl. Have this ready at the table
when the shrimp are done.
Mix together about 2 t of the seasoning mix, about 1 1/4 cups of
flour, the beer and the baking powder, and place this in a third bowl.
Combine the remaining flour with another 2 t of the seasoning mix.
Coat each shrimp with the remaining seasoning mix, then in the flour
mixture, then in the batter, then in the coconut. Deep-fry the shrimp
for about 1 minute and drain on paper towels.
NOTES:
* Shrimp in coconut beer batter with dipping sauce -- Adapted from
Chef Paul Prudhomme's "Louisiana Kitchen." A nice appetizer, though
very caloric.
* Don't put too much batter on or it will overwhelm the poor shrimp.
The dipping sauce is great for other things as well.
: Difficulty: easy if you can deep-fry.
: Time: 15 minutes preparation, 15 minutes cooking.
: Precision: Measure batter, improvise with spices and dipping sauce.
