Halloween doesn't have to be the only day of the year for tricks as well as treats. Compensate for an terrible practical joke your planning – or let your loved ones know that they are forgiven – by serving a round of April Fools for dessert tonight. (See my orange coconut fool recipe.)
In the culinary sense, a fool is a dessert made by folding cooked or pureed fruit into sweetened whipped cream. An English dish that originated in the 16oos, the word's etymology comes from the French verb fouler, which means, “to mash.” Traditionally made with gooseberries, you can use any fresh fruit.
About Me
- Erin
- Ridgewood, NJ, United States
- In the fall of 2007 my husband and I moved to Germany. After more than a year of traveling, eating, and living abroad, we were transferred back to the states. At the time of our return, I was 34 weeks pregnant. This is a true account of our re-assimilation, reverse culture shock, and impending adventure into parenthood.
A Southern Something
I don't think there are quite enough sausages in the South to maintain the "Wurst of the Week." Instead, I am replacing this sidebar feature with "A Southern Something." To start, I'd like to introduce you to chow chow. A pickled relish, chow chow can be made from any number of vegetables, including cabbage, onions, or green tomatoes.
