Wow, did I ask at the right place. Thank you!! I will try the link. I'm putting a few conversion-of-measures links on the disc, maybe I can add that one too.

No, the green chilis and Mogen David don't mingle much, two separate meals! :-) The mogen david and fluff are actually used for a traditional item we like to call 'Drunken Jello'.

Thanks for the Beau Monde recipe. Are spices overpriced in UK shops I wonder. Here I have to track them down in a whole-foods coop or discount store in order to not get ripped off. I'm afraid the couple will be starting with a very small spice rack to get started. The Beau Monde goes in a great dill dip for veggies that is very handy, but it might be impractical for them to fool with.
