please, a curry with coconut *and pomegranates*

Now I wish I had bought pomegranates. Damn. The fresh seeds would have to go in right at the end or they wouldn't have that crisp wet juiciness on eating, but you could add pomegranate molasses to the curry at the cooking-down stage for additional flavor. When [livejournal.com profile] derspatchel and I went to Tu y Yo with [livejournal.com profile] hermitgeecko and [livejournal.com profile] cirne, the latter ordered an absolutely gonzo stuffed pepper that came in a spicy cream sauce with pomegranate seeds. We kept saying it looked like Christmas. It tasted amazing.

Also, absinthe on fire? green into red? How wonderful THAT must be.

It burns blue, actually, but it's lovely. I like most things that involve setting alcohol on fire, especially if the point is drinking or eating them afterward. I knew I needed a recipe for cherries jubilee the first time I read Patricia C. Wrede's Dealing with Dragons (1990). Rob and I have an agreement to make bananas foster sometime.

Can't you just see him sulking?

I do not think I am ever in danger of Tiny John Winthrop. Nothing stays open late enough for me in Boston.
