Ingredients:

1 pod cardamom (seeds removed and ground with almonds)

2 pounds fresh cherries, pitted

1 handful dates

2 Egg whites

1 cup Ground almonds

1 tablespoon honey

dash rosewater

dash salt

1/2 cup water

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. For the torte: Whip the egg whites with the dash of salt until they form stiff peaks.
  2. Whip in the honey and gently fold into the ground almonds and cardamom seeds.
  3. Place mixture on well greased trays (or use baking paper). I like to divide the mixture into four on two trays.
  4. Spread the mixture out to about a 3/4 of an inch thick and in a circle.
  5. Bake at about 250 to 300 degrees F for around 15 minutes. Keep an eye on them and dont let them burn on the bottom.
  6. For the cherry filling: I advise soaking the dates in boiling water for about 5 minutes and put them through a tami or puree them so any skins are removed.
  7. Heat the cherries and water gently in a saucepan with the lid on until they are hot.
  8. Remove the lid and add the dates and reduce the juices down.
  9. Turn the heat off and cool slightly before adding the rose water.
  10. To put the torte together: Whip fresh cream and add honey.
  11. On one layer of torte add the cherries and then the cream.
  12. Put another layer of torte and repeat.

Food Joke

A man walked into the bar at a hotel that was hosting a convention of personal hygiene product salesmen. He sat down at a table with some of his fellow salesmen. Immediately one of the other salesmen says to him: "Hey Bill! We were just talking about you. Your territory sucks! Nobody was ever able to make a living in it before you. But now, you son-of-a-gun, you win the all-expense-paid trip to Vegas three years in a row, selling almost twice as much as anyone else in the whole Southwest region! How in the hell do you do it?" Bill replied, "Its easy! I take a big engraved silver bowl and fill it up with fresh dogcrap. Next I garnish it carefully with parsley sprigs, celery stalks, scallions, olives and thin-sliced red bell pepper rings. I take this to the airport and set it on a table on an elegantly embroidered white tablecloth. I serve samples on cocktail wafers to all who pass by. As soon as someone takes a bite they usually say 'Jesus Christ! This stuff tastes like CRAP!' I reply 'Yes sir! That's what it is! Would you care to buy a toothbrush?"
