Salad herbs finely shredded and then sauted or used in salads. Chillies. Small red peppers used in seasoning. Chives. An herb allied to the onion family. Chutney. An East Indian sweet pickle. Citron. The rind of a fruit of the lemon species preserved in sugar. Collops. Meat cut in small pieces. Compote. Fruit stewed in sirup. Scallop shells in which fish or oysters are sometimes served.
They burn the jungle about February, after cutting down some of the trees and clearing away some of the debris, and then sow the paddy broadcast, without cultivating the ground in any way. They also cultivate millet and Jobs-tears in the same way. With the paddy chillies are sown the first year.
When foreign cayenne is pounded, it is mixed with a considerable portion of salt, to prevent its injuring the eyes: but English chillies may be pounded in a deep mortar without any danger, and afterwards passed through a fine sieve. CELERY SAUCE. Cut small half a dozen heads of clean white celery, with two sliced onions.
Cornelius went off, creeping sluggishly down the hill on the side of the Rajah's palace, and after some delay a few of Tunku Allang's men came up, bringing a scanty supply of rice, chillies, and dried fish. This was immeasurably better than nothing.
Up stream they are said to be much larger. They are not salted, but smoked or sun-dried when the weather serves: stuffed with chillies and fried with oil, they are good eating as the Kinnam of the Gold Coast.
They sat in nice clean booths, with around them an endless variety of neat sacks and bowls displaying all kinds of rice and corn and lentils and baskets of bright chillies and many other dried fruits for curries. To chronicle some more small beer, I may put down here that we dined last night at the Yacht Club. The Yacht Club has little to do with yachting.
Another girl keeps her company and sleeps with her, but she may not touch any other person, tree or plant. Further, she may not see the sky, and woe betide her if she catches sight of a crow or a cat! Her diet must be strictly vegetarian, without salt, tamarinds, or chillies. She is armed against evil spirits by a knife, which is placed on the mat or carried on her person.
Cork it very closely, and keep it in a dry place. It will not be fit for use in less than two days. Take ripe chillies and dry them a whole day before the fire, turning them frequently. When quite dry, trim off the stalks and pound the pods in a mortar till they become a fine powder, mixing in about one sixth of their weight in salt. Or you may grind them in a very fine mill.
I sighed for the Iberian 'Zarzuela, that most charming opera buffa which takes its name from a 'pleasaunce' in the Pardo Palace near Madrid. The condiments are mostly garlic and saffron, preferred to mustard and chillies. The pastry, they tell me, is excellent. It stood in the garden of the Marquez de Sauzal, who would willingly have preserved it.
In the New World it was compounded of cacao, maize, and flavourings to which the Spaniards, on discovering it, added sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and other ingredients, such as musk and ambergris, cloves and nutmegs, almonds and pistachios, anise, and even red peppers or chillies.
