“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it." |

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. |

A most unusual and provocative taste combination of sweet-hot
ingredients, Mango Salad was a weekly Favorite Recipe contest winner
in June 1988. To prepare mangos, cut a slice off each end. Stand
mango on the larger flat end and cut the peel from top to bottom, in
a curve, with a sharp knife. Cut flesh away from the flat oval seed,
using the same technique: slice from top to bottom in a curve on
either side of seed. Cut remaining mango from the sides, but don't
cut too close to seed. Slice mango flesh or cut into chunks. Combine
mango, onion and jalapeno in a medium-size bowl. In another bowl,
combine oil, vinegar, salt, black pepper and sugar, stirring to make
dressing. Add dressing to mango mixture and let stand 2 hours or more
before serving. Makes about 8 servings. ** Houston Chronicle 4/17/96
