[Sca-cooks] OOP - Food for a 19th Century Parisian Courtesan

[Huette von Ahrens]

I suppose that you then should serve foods that are considered to be an aphrodesiac.  IIRC artichokes were considered so.  And also asperagas.
 
Then there is the downright bawdy.  Hollow out some sausages and fill with cream cheese, so that when bitten into is squirts out cream ... cheese.  Breast shaped meat balls with sliced olive aeriolas.  An anatomically correct loaf of bread shaped like parts of a man's or woman's body.  Stuff like that.

Those are all wonderful, and I had also thought of the Nipples of Venus.
However, I am not assigned sweets, but non-sweets.  I'm considering taking
the Greta Garbo Cocktail which is not my area either, but might be fun
(recipe below).  

I've started looking at Diets for Consumptives, and think I may do a
blancmange, along with some other savories.
