Thanks. Very cool. I caught the patter thing last night but then worked from the original copy to post today and missed it. :(

I'll pass on the comments to LLT.

Langouste with white sauce: why was vinegar or verjuice left out? Did you try it?

Suckling pig farced / Roasted pork with cheese stuffing : the recommendation was made to FREEZE the cheese stuffing to keep it more "manageable". And not to butterfly.

So when do I get my limes? And too bad we can't put the limes in the citrus salad (Ms. Use Everything talking...)

I can drop them by on the way home from work tomorrow...

I'll have to ask her about the other stuff. Thanks for the comments. What did you feel about the quailty of the documentation otherwise?

Good with what sskipstress said above. Need the dates & bib for the sources. Also if she used any other cookbooks as a basis for starting the redactions that is helpful to show process.

ie: "Joy of Cooking has a bread pudding ratio of 1 c of bread to 2 eggs. I used this to start with since the recipe did not have any consistancy notes"

Some judges like to hear "process"

Good point. I know that when LLT was working on the original recipes she was tickled to find a version of the pistachio cream in the pie and pastry bible - but I don't think she used it at all.
