Thank you. Years of playing D&D in the past mean that I always thing of the blunt weapon when I see the word, rather than the spice, so I thought my young elf might have had a similar problem!
We would still be playing if we were still in touch with our original group. Unfortunately age and location hasn't allowed for more than virtual playing of D&D for many years now.
Hm, that sounds delicious, definitely have to try that when strawberries are in season. I like to eat them spicy and with herbs anyway. I don't think I can get mace blades, thought; we only have already powdered mace on offer. Do you think I can use a bit of freshly ground nutmeg instead? That's what I usually do for recipes with mace...
I love the use of the prompt in your drabble very much! Not only the setting in an elven kitchen (we get far too little fanfic about elven cuisine), but also the mental leap your elf makes to his memory...
I have violet sugar which I use on fresh, quartered strawberries, together with a little bit of selfmade vanilla sugar, freshly ground cardamom seeds, a dash of allspice and fresh lemon verbena and lemon mint, both chopped. Lemon balm and any kind of mint works as well, but lemon verbena combined with cardamom really blows me away. I'm going to get a new rose geranium this year, Siljan found one with an intense lemon scent, and am looking forward to what I can do with these.

But the look in his eyes had told a different story.
Ooh. The plot thickens... I do wonder who this unnamed teacher is.

And yes - as you put the drabbles together there are certainly clues as to who has taught him to cook.
