Rhubarb Marmalade Terrine
June 1, 2004
Because I grew up in a California household in which the sweet granules were often referred to as ‘White Death’, I sometimes encounter a little psychological barrier walking 500 metres to the market and dishing out 1 euro 40 to buy some sugar. Meanwhile, I seem to be the only one in my family to have taken the ‘White Death’ bit seriously.
Luise coming to dinner and I’m plum out of sugar because I used it all up last week making a massive batch of orange marmalade. My situation is not unlike the Weapons of Mass Destruction Scenario that was plaguing ‘that Man’. I have lots of marmalade, and I know that it’s just chock full of sugar because I put the sugar there in the first place.
I served this Rhubarb Marmalade Terrine with a stiff hangop (joghurt from which the whey has been drained) sweetened liberally with THAT’s RIGHT homemade marmalade! I spiced the hangop with saffran and rosewater and spooned it into quenelles to serve next to the Rhu.

Stamp found on a block of tempeh.
Edible, drinkable.
