[Sca-cooks] phlips german feast

[Phlip]

OK, thanks, Margali- except it's Avraham's feast, I'm just helping ;-)

Phlip

 If it walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it is probably not a
cat.

Never a horse that cain't be rode,
And never a rider who cain't be throwed....

water, take them out in the morning. Next pound them well until they become
oily, pour a little rose water on them and pound them further. When they
become oily again, then pour a little more rose water thereon. Do this until
they no longer become oily. And pound the almonds as small as possible.
After that take a half pound of sugar, pound not quite all of it in, leaving
a little left over. Next, when the almonds and sugar are pounded well
together, put them in a bowl, take the lid from a small box, loosen the rim
completely, so that it can be detached and put back on again, however leave
the lid and the rim together. Take wafers and make them about as wide as a
pastry shell, very round. Spread the almond paste described above with the
fingers onto the wafers, moistening the fingers with rose water and dipping
the almond paste into the sugar, which you have kept in reserve. After that,
when you have s
> pread it out evenly with your hands, take the sugar that you have reserved
and sprinkle it through a sieve evenly over the marzipan. And take a small
brush and dip it in rose water and sprinkle the marzipan overall, so that
the sugar is dissolved. Then let it bake. Check it often, so that it is not
burnt. It should be entirely white. The amount of a half pound is necessary,
so that the oil remains.
