Food

I've bought a tortilla press from a hospice and cannot wait to make tacos.

@abr all food in colombia tastes great :)

That kinds of looks like pulled cauliflower. Did you roast it whole and then break it down?

I've been experimenting with cauliflower florets dunked in a light flour/water batter, chuck in oven until brown, bring out, allow to cool, cover in spices/chilli sauce/whatevs and back in oven til charred.

pulled cauliflower

is this an actual thing now?

you beat me to it. Pulled colliflower yeah.

Nah. I just charred it and roasted it with brown butter, garlic and lemon.

Did the same thing with chilli and shrimp and hispi cabbage on Monday and was great

You can't 'pull' a cauliflower because it would just be mush. Roasted hot and fast gets it crisp and brings out the flavour without turning to babyfood

The crispy bits are the best

Big bit of Brisket from Mick in 'Stow Village:

Sounds delish. Getting hungry now.

For completeness:

Got my porchetta game on the go last night. Used rosemary for the herb but think something lighter would be better: thyme or sage, or a mix of the two.

Added a little water to the tray to make a jus but it prevented the skin from crisping up. Absolute killer of a roast though, porchetta is amazing!

Anyone got a good tip for a nice veggie restaurant? I want to take my wife out for lunch on Friday (her 40th).. within a suitable radius of Camden would be good.

Thanks, matt
