SC - Holiday Greetings

[DUNHAM Patricia R]

Hey, that's great news (almonds in the coffee grinder)!  Years (15-20?)
ago I did almond-milk almonds in a blender and it was a moderate pain.
(But nothing like doing them by hand, I assume!!  A great conspicuous
consumption item, almond milk has always seemed to me-- "not only can I
import these nuts from at least the south of France, if not further, I
can also afford to feed a couple of kitchen slaveys who do nothing but
crunch the durned things in querns, or by mortar and pestle, or
whatever, to make almond milk out of")

| Hi everyone!
|
| I hope everyone had wonderful holidays and got lotsa loot.
|
| Tell us cool stuff you got. Of interest to this list that I recieved
were:
|
| Hering's Dictionary of Classical & Modern Cookery
| (Very expensive and the more I read it the cooler it gets)
|
| TWO coffee grinders (I gave real broad hints that I wanted two. One
for
|                      coffee and one for spices.)
|
| A food processor.
| (Since I am cooking for 400 this weekend they felt it was needed.)
|
| I have discovered that almond milk is a breeze when you are able to
grind
| the nuts in a coffee grinder.
|
| Next posting is my 12th Night feast.
|
| Yers,
|
| Gunthar
