In answer to questions, the snowballs I know don't have cake in them,
just marshmallow. They are often rolled in chocolate before the
coconut, but not always. I don't know what the alternative is, but
it's not chocolate, 'cause I can eat it. Quandong jelly is ordinary
packet jelly made from a native Australian fruit which most of us
have never tasted and probably never will; apparently they're rock
hard even when they're ripe. The jelly is coloured purple. And no,
I haven't tried it.
Shall we turn the conversation to something slightly more on topic now?
What about unusual cooking methods? The Anglo-Norman Culinary
collection refers to cooking in a pot surrounded by slaking lime; we
watched a rather fun video a couple of weeks ago which talked at one
stage of cooking stews in a wooden bucket, the heat provided by means
of a rock heated in the fire. Any others?
