Dinner at Kathy and Russel's



Sunday June 5
A lovely dinner chez K & R with Julie, Jay, Jackie, and Mirta. To go with tales of daring do (and don’t!) in Mexico City, there were two surprisingly similar-looking dips, but one was puréed white bean and parsley, the other artichoke. 
These were followed by big slabs of salmon brushed with a dark savory sauce. And as our vegetarian offering this evening: baked eggplant rounds topped with cheese, also eagerly consumed by the piscivores.
For pudding, an actual pudding or rather an amazing pound cake trifle, assembled according to Sue Willetts’ mother’s recipe (in direct female line from Queen Victoria, Boadicea, and Horsa-“his wife or horse”),  topped with raspberries and almonds.
