Art/Literary - Cooking / Culinary | | English term or phrase: roots of a palmetto mush | Then there were scarlet pepperheads from Thessaly, and pickled cucumbers from the Ukraine, spices from Bali and Sumatra, a little silver nutmeg-grater, a little gold instrument for crushing picatilloes, a little crystal mortar for grinding those locarto beans which come from Marakesh; the *roots of a palmetto mush*; olives from Ithaca.
Es handelt sich um eine Aufzählung von Zutaten/Utensilien für ein aufwändig zelebriertes Festmahl, aus einem Essay von Harold Nicolson.
