Pre-Answer:  Three Words  “(5-letters)  (3-letters)  (9-letters)

Answer:  “THYME“ FOR SEASONING

(Truly, an aromatic pun!  I can’t cook, but I love the flavor and smell of thyme.  Great in soups, stews, sauces and marinades.  And, it goes great with poultry, fish, lamb and veal.  Now, I’m getting hungry!  It’s a member of the mint family, and Simon & Garfunkel sang about it – along with parsley, sage and rosemary – in the song “Scarborough Fair”.  A very pretty, lilting and soothing melody.

No need to bother our old friend ralis95, as all of today’s clue words are familiar old friends.  Howbeit, all of their jumbles appear to be new.  I did not stumble on any of these jumbles.  The answer letter layout was a brilliant seventeen letter jumble.  It disguised the final answer beautifully.  The clues – when, moment, and point – were in the cartoon’s dialog, and the clue/question.

Great scene of a restaurant kitchen.  It’s a little hard to tell what the chef is sauteing.  It looks like it could be fish, or a chicken or veal cutlet.  And yes, this is making me hungry again!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
