Classic Lemon Drop

A nicely proportioned Lemon Drop. Here let me take a sip of this one by my elbow just to make sure. Yep - tasty. The only change that I would make - and that only if I were pouring to impress - would be to mix a little sour salt in with the rimming sugar. Sour salt is one of those mystery ingredients you whip out for (as Ann Hodgman calls it) "maximum guest intimidation." And just between you and me, isn't that what entertaining is all about?

Once you have the ingredients - it's a short list, but I don't typically keep fontina on hand - Chow's Fontina Fondue is a quick and easy family supper.

We did not make the Polenta Fries, and so do not include them in this review. We are much more catholic when it comes to dunking food in cheese. It seems a good way to get vegetables into the children.

Recipe multiplies effectively. I haven't had a chance to assess its keeping properties but suspect its a here-and-now sort of concoction.
