Moroccan Pastries
Moroccan Pastry Assortment – Pâtisserie GATÔ Marrakech Moroccan pastries are a favorite memory of Essaouira, and a special part of Moroccan culture. It took me a while to discover them, because they look different, and I gravitated toward tarts, croissants, and other more familiar-looking confections. Glad I discovered these treats, a great compliment for mint tea. Ghoriba Bahla – Cuisine…

General Elektriks - Corne de Gazelle (feat. Leeroy)
Hervé Salters, a French national and vintage keyboard player, was playing keys for various artists in Paris (Femi Kuti, -M-, Vercoquin, DJ Mehdi, etc.) before he moved to San Francisco in 1999. He started working on what would become General Elektriks as he was moving to the US. Once in California, he soon became associated with the Quannum Projects collective (Blackalicious, Lyrics Born, etc.) and started sessioning for them. He invited Quannum’s own Lateef The Truthspeaker and Chief Xcel on a few tracks, then completed the 1st General Elektriks album, Cliquety Kliqk (2003).
After touring behind the album, Salters joined Blackalicious in the studio to work on The Craft and toured with them for over a year. Concurrently, he formed San Francisco trio Honeycut with singer Bart Davenport and drummer/programmer Tony Sevener. Quannum Projects released their critically acclaimed 1st album, The Day I Turned To Glass, in 2006. In 2007, the General Elektriks song ‘Time To Undress’ was chosen to be featured in the Woody Allen movie ‘Cassandra’s Dream.’ As he was touring with Honeycut and laying keys down for more artists (hip hop group Lifesavas, Brazilian artist Curumin, beat maker Jel, hip hop group the Mighty Underdogs, etc….), Salters started working on a second General Elektriks effort. Good City For Dreamers showcased a more organic sound than its predecessor, blending sampled/programmed drums, live keyboards, horns and strings in a more seamless fashion; it also featured more of Salters’ singing. Released in 2009, the record was spearheaded by the single ‘Raid The Radio’ and led to an 18 months tour.
Salters then co-produced L.A rapper Pigeon John’s album Dragon Slayer and got back together with his Honeycut counterparts to work on a second effort, ‘Comedians.’ He also wrote and produced the soundtrack to a gangster TV miniseries for French network France 2, ‘Les Beaux Mecs.’ Salters started working on a follow up to Good City For Dreamers during the winter of 2011. Written, arranged and produced in 4 months, Parker Street came out in the fall of 2011 and digs deeper into the organic blend of Funk, Pop and Jazz of its predecessor.
Salters moved back to Europe during the Parker Street tour and settled in Berlin in 2012. The same year he teamed up with Blackalicious producer Chief Xcel to form Burning House. Showcasing a mix of Xcel’s programming artistry and Salters’ keyboards, their album Walking into A Burning House came out on French label Naïve in 2013. After co-producing Pigeon John’s 4th studio album ‘Encino Man’ (2014), Salters started working on a follow up to Parker Street. He concurrently wrote the music for a TV miniseries on Franco-German network Arte, ‘Paris’ (2015), and the same year co-wrote the soundtrack for French movie ‘Arrêtez-moi là.’ Salters’ 4th studio album as General Elektriks, To Be A Stranger, came out in the winter of 2016. Brazilian singer Céu’s Tropix album, which Salters had co-produced with Brazilian drummer Pupillo, came out later that year and went on to win 2 Latin Grammy Awards (Best Portuguese Language Contemporary Pop Album and Best Engineered Album).
Salters and his live band recorded various shows from the ‘To Be A Stranger’ tour, which resulted in the live album Punk Funk City (Fall 2016). The band line up on Punk Funk City was still the one that Salters had assembled in 2009 at the time of Good City For Dreamers: Jessie Chaton on electric bass and synth bass, Jordan Dalrymple on drums and MPC, Eric Starczan on guitar, Touski on vibraphone and drums, and Salters on Clavinet/Fender Rhodes/synth. The band also joined Salters on some songs on his next album, Carry No Ghosts, which came out in the winter of 2018. The line up changed during the following tour as Jordan Dalrymple left the band and was replaced on drums and MPC by Toma Milteau.

vegan Kaab al Ghazal / Cornes de Gazelle (Moroccan almond-paste-filled cookies)
recipe under the cut!
INGREDIENTS:
for the dough:
2 cups (270g) all-purpose flour (measured by spooning flour gently into a measuring cup and levelling it off)
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp melted vegan margarine
2 tbsp orange blossom water
for the almond paste:
1 1/2 cup (225g) almonds
1/2 cup (50g) sugar
2 tbsp orange blossom water
1/4 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp melted vegan margarine
INSTRUCTIONS
for the dough:
1. add all ingredients for the dough into a large bowl. you should get a soft dough that just comes together without being sticky--add more water if necessary.
2. knead the dough for 10-20 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
for the almond paste:
1. blanch the almonds by placing them in boiling water for about a minute, then gently pinching each one to remove its skin. dry thoroughly.
2. toast the almonds in a large pan over medium heat for a couple minutes until a shade darker.
3. grind almonds and remaining ingredients in a food processor or grinder until a smooth paste results.
to assemble the cookies:
1. take a portion of the dough (covering the dough that you’re not using so that it doesn’t dry out) and roll it out--it should be very thin but not translucent.
2. place about a tablespoon of almond paste on the dough in roughly the size and shape of a finger.
Tumblr media
3. fold the dough over the filling and press firmly to seal. form into a sharply curving crescent shape that is slightly narrower at the top than at the bottom. the direction from which you folded the dough should form the inside of the curve.
Tumblr media
4. use a pastry wheel to cut the cookie from the remaining dough. repeat until all of the dough has been used.
Tumblr media
5. place cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. prick a few holes in the top of each cookie with a fork or toothpick.
6. bake at 350F (175C) for 15-20 minutes, until a shade darker (be careful not to overcook them or they will be too tough--they shouldn’t be golden brown!)
the name of this cookie means “gazelle horns” or (in French) “gazelle ankles.” Kaab al Ghazal are commonly served with Moroccan mint tea. they may be dipped in orange blossom water and then covered in sugar, in which case they’re called Kaab al Ghazal M'fenned.
