Food

Nice, I’ve not eaten the real thing. I saw a video of a Japanese guy with some sausages and he made a plain pancake (like mine) and it intrigued me

I’ve found sweetheart cabbage is best

I’m down with the salty/sweet sauce
Not sure about the mayopocalypse

Found this website useful when making okonomiyaki: https://okonomiyakiworld.com/best-okonomiyaki-recipe.html

And this great video of a chap in Hiroshima making some proper chonkers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3S73BmUFUk

Secured the most illusive and best hot sauce in London

Bold statement

tbh the standard non-smoke one is actual best

Why is hand squeezing a standout feature?

Local restaurant posted on their instagram feed, only that’s 3 cornered leek not wild garlic…

One for the porchetta fans

I’ll look forward to watching that this evening.

We spent two weeks in Umbria for my fortieth, and virtually lived off porchetta bought from the markets in Gubbio and Spoleto.

Any recommendations on where to buy big chicken wings?

This is also incredible

We got married in Umbria (Spoleto) and had a porchetta for a wedding cake

Amazing, loved it.

Essential viewing 🐖 thanks for sharing

Wow.

Absolutely.

How do people fry their beef burgers, at home, indoors?

In a frying pan

Not sure if a trick question

I use a stainless steel teppanyaki pan. I prefer to grind up the meat from short ribs as it has a decent fat content so no oil is needed. Medium temperature for conventional burgers so they are cooked properly but with a hint of pink, higher temps for smash burgers as they are so much thinner.

cast iron pan, hot, 2 to 2.5 mins a side.

I used to use a frying pan with a lid. Stopped the oil spattering and helped to cook the inside more evenly.

Now I use an air fryer on the grill setting as it's much easier.

Cheers all.
