Cheers boss. I don’t use saltpetre so it’s not as pink as the stuff you buy, but the taste and textures is just obscenely good.

I want a larder so much.

meat grinder and sausage stuffer

You’re making me blush!
Jeez tho, nice deal. Looks like a lot of mixer for £400. Like a mini Hobart ;)

saltpetre

Rightfully so, evil stuff. It’s the whole reason I never really have bacon anymore - not many options without nitrates around.

the mockmill attachment looks awesome, stone grinding flour at home. plan is to use it for spelt rye etc, but will still get bulk white and pizza flour pre ground

Let me know how you get on with the pasta attachment if you get it!

i will probably become too fat to type

Ace!

Will check it out, seems only open Thu to Sun at the moment

Cinnamon Grahams too. Ooof

Aye, interested to see the results. Although I have to admit I’m perfectly happy buying preground!

Not sure I've ever eaten tongue. That sandwich looks fuuuucking amazing though.

Made quick and dirty Pho with leftover roast beef yesterday. One of my favourite things and it makes the whole house smell amazing. Cheated with a bag of store-bought stock, diluted it a bit and added toasted star anise, cloves, garlic, toasted ginger, sugar and fish sauce. Let it steep for a bit after that it's just chucking in all the usual bits; noodles, bean sprouts, coriander (didn't have any thai basil or mint), chillies, lime juice and the thinly sliced leftover (pink) roast beef. Flipping delicious. Leftover leftovers for lunch today were arguably even better. No pics because eating.

The sort of all you can eat in crouch end near the cinema.

Might be closed tho.

You can get nitrate free bacon in France (that I have seen) and the rest of Denmark as the nitrate bit is the bit that is bad for you.

Just don't get the ice maker. We got it and I've eaten more ice cream in the past week than I did last year.

My wife doesn’t like ice cream which would mean if I got the ice cream bowl I would eat all of it.

It would be lethal

How can a person not like ice cream?

No accounting for taste, she married me

I got an ice cream maker machine two days ago.

The milk man has just dropped off cream.

The sun is shining.

My kids are fucking MAD FOR IT.

Let's go.

Ooo what flavour are you making, that sounds like a fucking awesome day!

We've been down the home made ice cream rabbit hole.

If there is one thing you should try, its brown bread ice cream. My mum used to make it by hand when I was a kid but as with with most things you remember being good when you're small, I assumed I couldn't like it as much as an adult. I was wrong. Its epic.

It has a name problem. Brown bread ice cream sounds gross. Should really be called Toffee Toast ice cream.

Toffee Toast ice cream.

with bacon, pls.

That could be really good.

x + bacon = really good

Except for the cherry & bacon brownies that I made last week - I should have used sliced pancetta, and the bacon I did use ended up fibrous & chewy.
