sidcow Posted September 15, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) Noticed Mrs Sidcow had bought some thinly sliced beef for sarnies. Had to pop into Tesco yesterday. Looked for some wholegrain mustard as I know the one we had in the fridge has been open for ages. They only had own brand in stock..... I should have known better. Opened it up, there appeared to be a few specs of what I assume are mustard grains swimming around in a gelatinous brown sludge. When eating it I started to wonder if they actually were mustard grains or actually tiny pieces of grit. How's it possible to make such an awful product. I didn't even look at the price but if it was 10p it wasn't worth it. Who buys that shit? Who's it for? No one HAS to have wholegrain mustard, it's really just a nice little extra to have, why pay "less" or indeed anything for a treat that's just shit. Never again.

Chine Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Just made the kids a Yorkshire pudding wrap ….. homemade Yorkshire pudding on a large rectangle tray then flattened it out with the back of a spoon ,thin sliced sirloin spread over along with peas , carrots, cauliflower and broccoli with a drizzle of super thick gravy , salt, black and white pepper wrapped it up which was a bit tricky then cut it in half . I was hoping they would leave a bit for me to try but not a scrap left ! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted September 18, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted September 18, 2022 Nik Naks are the oddest crisp style snack. Genuinely can't work out if I love them or they revolt me. It's bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're one of my favourites, said a few pages back I recently tried the new wotsit cheese flavour nik nak style crisp and I love that style Fun fact which I've never ever bothered to check... Back when I worked in the food industry there was a rumour and laugh about the nik nak workers demanded that they get paid more money when working on the scampi crisps - they are something special and might be interesting - people's opinions on scampi fries? I love them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Zen Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 After falling in love with Basque pintxos bars in the summer, I’ve discovered the Japanese equivalent, the izakaya. There’s a great little place in Oslo that deserves the most delicious pork belly slices, combined with e.g. a plate of mushrooms tempura with chili mayo, gyoza dumplings and a couple of seafood dishes, washed down with a light Japanese lager. Lovely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love them i do like scampi fries and scampi and lemon nik naks. I'm in the yes camp when it comes to nik naks. One of the better corn snacks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottaloo Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 (edited) Had to use up some left over chicken so I made a chicken and mushroom madras, with lashings of madras strength curry powder, mustard seeds, base gravy, hot chilli powder, lemon juice AND a healthy sprinkling of cayenne pepper just in case. It's enough to make Prince Andrew sweat Edited September 19, 2022 by mottaloo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was close on one , not sure if I’d call rhubarb and custard tropical though for the other Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
