Tortes

November is a special month for me. The yellow topaz is the gemstone for this, the I Ith month of the year.

In November, we celebrate Election Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, the beginning of Advent, the unofficial start of the yuletide season on Black Friday and the feast days of St. Elizabeth of Hungary, St. Margaret of Scotland, St. Marton of Tours, St. Imre and St. Astrik. My birthday is on Wednesday, Nov. 20.

As long as I can remember, my birthday celebration has included a special törte. Dobos, Eszterházy, Linzer and Sacher Tortes have been gastronomical focal points of my birth date celebrations. I enjoy consuming all types of tortes, but, by far, the Dobos Torte is my favorite.

I recently learned a few odd facts about the Dobos Torte. Most people assume that the Dobos Torte is linked with the Magyar word meaning "drum.” Actually, the Dobos Torte was named by its inventor, József Dobos, in 1884. The Dobos Torte was an intentional creation based on necessity. Dobos developed a new type of treat using chocolate butter creme icing and sponge cake. His recipe extended the shelf life and delivery range of tortes by several days when compared to other cakes of the time which featured whipped cream.

All tortes are cakes, but not all cakes are tortes. Most tortes are multilayered, but some are not. Some tortes are made with little or no flour. Tortes were vaulted into worldwide popularity by family members of the aristocracy of the Austro-Hungarian Empire when they hosted gala international events.

With all due respect to Chef Béla, I present to you the November 2013 wordsearch puzzle. There are 21 clues. Each clue is either the name of a type of törte or a key ingredient in the making of a Dobos Torte. Good luck. See you in December.

Éljen a Magyar,
