RECIPE CARDS · FROM MY FOOD POST
Recipe cards
The two desserts from the dinner before the Quell, both made the day before.
A Pudding the Color of Honey
SERVES 8 · 3 HR 15 MIN, MOST OF IT CHILLING
And the pudding the color of honey? I make mine with real honey, so it's the color for an honest reason. It's ten minutes of stirring at the stove, and then it sets in
the fridge while you do everything else.
YOU NEED
3 cups whole milk
1/3 cup honey and 2 tablespoons brown sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch and ¼ teaspoon salt
3 egg yolks
1 tablespoon butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla
HOW TO
1. Whisk the cornstarch, brown sugar, salt and egg yolks with ½ cup of the milk until
smooth.
2. Heat the rest of the milk with the honey in a saucepan until it steams.
3. Whisk a cup of the hot milk into the yolks, pour it all back into the pan and cook,
whisking, until it's thick and bubbling, about 3 minutes.
4. Off the heat, stir in the butter and vanilla, pour it into small cups, press plastic wrap
on top and chill at least 3 hours.
Chocolate Custard Dotted with
Cherries
SERVES 8 · 4 HR 20 MIN, MOST OF IT CHILLING
Dessert at that dinner before the Quell is chocolate custard dotted with cherries. I make it on the stove the day before, in little glasses, and I push the cherries in
right before serving so they sit on top like jewels.
YOU NEED
2½ cups whole milk and ½ cup heavy cream
½ cup sugar, ¼ cup cocoa powder, 3 tablespoons
cornstarch and ¼ teaspoon salt
4 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup pitted cherries, jarred or thawed frozen
ATTEMPTING ALOHA · attemptingaloha.com
HOW TO
1. Whisk the sugar, cocoa, cornstarch and salt in a saucepan, then whisk in the milk and
cream until smooth.
2. Cook over medium heat, whisking, until it's thick and bubbling, 6 to 8 minutes.
3. Off the heat, stir in the chocolate and vanilla until it's melted and glossy. Pour it into 8
small glasses, cover them and chill at least 4 hours.
4. Right before serving, dot each glass with cherries.

RECIPE CARDS · FROM MY FOOD POST
Two of the three soups
Serve them in little cups or teacups, the way Snow’s party does it.
Frothy Pink Raspberry
Soup
MAKES ABOUT 16 LITTLE CUPS · 2 HR 10 MIN, MOST OF IT CHILLING
And the pink one is the Capitol at its most Capitol. I serve it cold, and the blender makes the froth. It's ten minutes of work, then it just sits in my fridge until the
party.
YOU NEED
2 bags (12 ounces each) frozen raspberries, thawed
1 cup plain whole-milk yogurt
½ cup cold milk
1/3 cup honey
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Fresh raspberries, for the top
HOW TO
1. Blend the thawed raspberries, yogurt, milk, honey and lemon juice until smooth.
2. Chill it at least 2 hours.
3. Right before serving, blend it again on high for 20 seconds to froth it up.
4. Pour it into small cups and drop a fresh raspberry on each.
Creamy Pumpkin Soup from Snow's Party
MAKES ABOUT 16 LITTLE CUPS · 30 MIN
In Catching Fire, the victory party at President Snow's mansion doesn't have a soup. It has at least TWENTY! There's a creamy pumpkin one with slivered nuts
and tiny black seeds, a clear green broth and a frothy pink soup with raspberries.
YOU NEED
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, chopped
2 cans (15 ounces each) pumpkin purée
3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
½ cup heavy cream
Toasted slivered almonds and poppy seeds, for the top
ATTEMPTING ALOHA · attemptingaloha.com
HOW TO
1. Cook the onion in the butter for 6 minutes, until it's soft.
2. Add the pumpkin, broth, salt and nutmeg and simmer 15 minutes.
3. Blend it smooth right in the pot and stir in the cream.
4. Pour it into small cups and top each with almonds and a pinch of poppy seeds.
