This is GENIUS! Or maybe I'm just obsessed with cheese. Or both. Let's just split the difference. It might also be good on the edge of an apple pie crust....
So, is a turnover the same thing as a hand pie? Because that would answer your (rhetorical, I realize) question about why turnovers vs pie since a hand pie is just a "semilunar" (according to Wiktionary) pie....Someone would write a song about semilunar pie, I think.
I'm gonna go out on a limb here- don't know what y'all will think of this suggestion- and say that gravy might be good on some grits. You could call it polenta if you're cooking in the Hamptons.
I want to want it. Maybe if it weren't 8,000 degrees where I live....my mind's telling me yes, but my body.........
I've been looking for something like this, somewhat less for it's cuteness than for the breadth of the bodice (so to speak). I hate when I'm cooking and the top of the apron either gets sort of wedged into the cleavage or slides to one side offering unsatisfactory uni-boob coverage. Oh, the travails of the magnificent bosomed!
One of my very favorite posters on Chowhound died the day you posted this. I never met him and only knew him through that somewhat anonymous format, but somehow I'll miss him. There are certain people whose writing connects me to them- almost as if I recognize their voices- and I feel the fellowship of food as a connection of all humanity in their writing. Edna Lewis was certainly one who articulated food as fellowship in a unique and resonant way. Thanks for the post.
As luck would have it i've just been requested this week to make this very dish by my darling husband. I'm a little intimidated by rhubarb, but I'll just have to get over it as I refuse to back down to a vegetable.
My favorite was to make cauliflower! I buy what is called "dry chutney" at an Indian grocery which sounds like a similar spice mix. It's not quite as hot as the surface of the sun, but...
I guess what they say about martinis being like women's breasts could also apply to the buttocks- you know- one isn't enough, three is too many.
