1 Egg, separated

2 tb Milk

50 g Flour (1/2 cup less 1 Tbsp)

1 ds Salt

10 tb Liquid honey

Fat for frying From grandmother's more thrifty times; rarely encountered today. From the Oberallgaeu region. Make a batter of the flour, egg yolk, milk, salt, and sugar. Beat the egg whites, and add to the mixture. Take five wooden spoons and stick the handles about 1/3 to 3/4 inch deep into the dough, twisting the handles as you do so. Immediately transfer them to fat that has been heated to 390 degrees F. As soon as the dough has browned, once again dip into the dough, then back into the hot fat. Repeat the process 5 to 6 times. When the very outside layer has turned crisp and brown, remove the pastry from the spoon handle, fill with honey, and serve hot, dusted with crushed sugar. Makes 8 wasp nests, for dessert.

1 ts Unflavored gelatin

4 c Watermelon cubes

2 tb Lime juice (or lemon)

2 tb Honey

Lime twists for garnish In a micro-safe cup, soften gelatin in 2 tb water by heating briefly. Stir until gelatin is dissolved. (Suggestion: cut up melon in a sieve to catch the seeds, over a bowl to catch the juice or you will have lots of juice around the cutting board.) In a blender container, combine 1 cup of melon cubes, lime (or lemon) juice, honey and gelatin mixture. Cover and blend at high speed for 30 sec or until smooth. Add remaining melon in batches, cover and blend at high speed until smooth. Pour into a 8x8x2" pan and freeze until almost firm. Remove from freezer and transfer mixture to a large chilled bowl. Beat at high speed with an electric mixer or food processor until smooth. Return to pan or pour into serving size cups or pour into plastic ice cube trays and freeze several hours until firm. To serve let stand 15-20 min at room temperature. Scrape surface (if you used 8x8 pan) and spoon into serving dishes. Garnish.
