We make wafer thin parmesan 'tuilles' for garnishes and canapes. The addition of some finely chopped olives or sun dried tomatoes doesn't hurt either. If you have never read E.D. before then might I suggest 'An Omelette and a Glass of Wine' to begin with? A compilation of short writings which I am sure would wet your appetite for the classics. Happy reading. miles Cid,

Today I made parmesan and herb biscuits for a motley crew ... he who shall not be named but wears women's jeans :) sampled several. No doubt it made up for the fact that I droned on about what a fabulous site this is. Hopefully others will see the light as word spreads. In the meantime I shall make a point of researching Elizabeth David. Cid Miles,
