Using a freshly sharpened Sabatier coax the bread
into overt tranches, sprinkle with Lebanese nutmeg and introduce to
flame. Be careful not to chide too roughly, remove once a golden Saint
Tropez tan has been evened out.
Placate the spiced tranches on grand-mama's Ming dynasty famille
rose serving platter, given to her by the Aga Khan in exchange for
a colonial mahogany tall-boy.
Lightly coil the haricots around the copper Le Crueseu and
hover over the Rayburn, cuddle sharply with room-temperature whole
crushed black peppercorns and an aroma of oregano until harvested.
Drizzle the haricot dream over receptive tranches and display,
accompanied by a smooth creamy helping of Mahler's Symphony 10
by the Berliner Philharmoniker, conducted by Simon Rattle.
Optional serving suggestion: Smile at visions of mottle-legged
working class housewives trailing home with their frozen fish fingers
and oven chips for hubby's tea.
