Yes, the recipe for "Angel's Food" can be found in this file in the
FOOD section:
fresh-cheeses-msg (43K) 3/28/04 Fresh cheeses such as ricotta,
cream cheese
and cottage cheese. Non-aged
cheeses.
I believe the recipe, or at least commentary on this can be found in
several other files. Use the search engine on the top page. This is
one of the files:
tarts-msg (102K) 5/21/04 Period small, open-topped,
shallow pies.
And small tarts might be a quick and easy way to serve this.
