Chef Andy is leery of any recipe containing the word "surprise" in
the title. The original text for this quivering masterpiece read,
"A citrus mold that's delicious and versatile. It's even good for breakfast!"
Chef Andy further thinks that recipes containing both "surprise" and "breakfast" in their titles should be taken out and shot. Surprises at the breakfast table are absolutely the last thing Chef Andy wants to deal with before his coffee. Prepare this at your own risk. |
