A yeast-roll recipe which uses self-rising flour for the most airy, delicious rolls ever! Note: the secret to these light and airy rolls is NOT punching down the dough and NOT kneading it, plus the added lift the self-rising flour gives.
Lemon Syllabub
A syllabub is a deliciously light, creamy, sophisticated little dessert from days gone by. I first tasted it at a supper given by a lecturer in seventeenth-century literature when I was in college, and it took my taste buds right back to the Restoration. It can be prepared as either a parfait or a punch, but as it contains alcohol, you may not want to serve this to younger family members. Eat it with a small spoon — and savor it!
