[Note from MCK Archivist: The consumption of raw eggs has been linked with health risks due to the presence of E. coli, campylobacter, salmonella and other bacteria. You are advised to use alternative ingredients, such as pasteurized eggs, or modify the cooking/preparation method to eliminate
these hazards. Mimi's Cyber Kitchen takes no responsibility for those who prepare this or any other recipe in these archives.]
