The perfect thing to take to somebody’s house for Easter:
Cupcakes with fresh coconut on top and a few jelly beans. Toasted almonds with rosemary, lemon zest, garlic and a little red pepper. A lasagna with homemade noodles, stuffed with spinach, garlic, sauteed mushrooms, white sauce (no red) and parmesan. A charcuterie platter. A cheesecake. A chocolate rabbit.
A ham with a mustardy, brown sugary, dried apricot glaze. A roasted turkey breast that you baste with the dedication of a new mother. A chocolate rabbit. Fried zucchini pancakes (In case you need something to do when you get there; these need to made in the minute.) Popovers with a little gruyere cheese in the batter.
Scottish bacon on crusty bread. Pate. A brand new cheese that no one has ever tasted before. Artichoke puree. A chocolate rabbit. Or champagne. Or a kiss.
