The days before the as-much-as-you-can-stuff-yourselves buffets. It was probably served on a petite plate in a small vol-au-vent. It's not like today where you'd have this slopping over the side of a dinner plate or we'd complain we didn't get a good portion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-44850476304414088732019-03-14T00:39:12.246-04:002019-03-14T00:39:12.246-04:00Absolutely fantastic job you have done here.This i...Absolutely fantastic job you have done here.This is so nice.Thanks for sharing.<br />Sophiehttps://www.clippingpathquick.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-29027952691209524422019-03-10T23:38:03.735-04:002019-03-10T23:38:03.735-04:00Thank you.

It brought sweet memories of my childhood, I thank you for it.<br /><br />I was born in Cuba, my paternal grandmother had several sets of mango forks, I specially remember two French sets one in Britannia silver from Odiot, and spectacular one from Peter the silver smith of Paris, with the handles made of black onyx and oxen red coral in a chevron design.<br /><br />I have been looking for mango forks for years, and only find inferior ones, I don't eat mangoes that often, but would for memory's sake eat them constantly if I had forks to be proud of!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02760211321724280064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-323849547147404211.post-48092416699685167902019-01-25T04:15:32.946-05:002019-01-25T04:15:32.946-05:00Woven basket with handle are those baskets which a...<a href="https://sonderholliday.com/collections/tote-carry" rel="nofollow">Woven basket with handle</a> are those baskets which are made up of wood splints or cane.

Back in the 60s I was living in Chicago and found a recipe for onion soup in the International Herald Tribune for the most delicious onion soup I had ever made. It was from Les Halles and was before they closed that revered landmark. <br />Now that I have somehow lived to nearly 80 and live in Spain, I have searched and searched for that recipe (which I of course lost in the shuffle). I have looked and looked and finally came across this recipe that is practically it! The only thing that I could remember precisely is that the soup used beef stock instead of chicken. And for my culinary memory, that is the secret. <br />Thank you so much for publishing this.
