So said Clark Gable…
Poor Jean – only 26 when she died. Lots of people were madly in love with her – including William Powell it is rumoured.
We liked her crispy shrimpy celery. We had a “taste test” involving stuffed celery to Jean’s recipe and some modified with style by Ruth. Admittedly the modified version was more suited to the modern palate but we did like the subtle pinky green hue of Jean’s original.
Cary and William were over for lunch and much discussion was had as to whether a sprinkling of paprika or cayenne pepper would perk it up. We may have to include a health warning though that inhalation of cayenne can cause a choking fit that might amuse other diners but isn’t much fun to the pepper throated cougher.
