Would be interesting to see what these 'pizzas' have, considering some people call pizzas 'pies'. I guess it's not too far-fetched.

I mean, add some more crust and it could be like cheesecake, no?

(But it sounds more gimmicky, to be honest.)

c21m50nh3x460n, Sunday, 14 July 2013 22:43 (ten years ago) link

Sounds fitting. :D

Sometimes I like to read these threads out to my (American) wife and it's a really great way to pass an evening.

My personal recipe for a great summer salad:

Mix together in bowl, not on plate

1. salad leaves: fresh spinach, lamb's lettuce, watercress with stalks cut off
2. melt a table-spoon of lurpak butter into the salad leaves
3. add a squeeze of lime juice
4. grate plenty of extra mature cheddar on top
5. layer on thin slices of sweet emerald green tomatoes
6. plus sugar-drop tomatoes, these cut into 4, length & crossways
7. drizzle on some Harissa dressing (best not to overdo it,
I prefer Sainsburys taste the difference, but if you like it really hot: use Belazu Rose Harissa)
8. mix in a little extra virgin olive oil
9. and some sainsburys tomato puree with hint of garlic
10. and a scoop of pequillo pepper dip
11. and an smaller scoop of beetroot tzatziki
12. then add one packet of Marks & Spencers classic beef jerky
(this is the soft kind anyway, but to prevent any excess chewiness, should be cut into small pieces first)
13. cut up a few sugarsnap peas and toss 'em in too
14. sprinkle some chilli flakes, and grind plenty of salt & pepper, over everything.
15. toss together

mystified by the oscillations from enticing to bleagh and back again. you start out all, "fresh spinach, lamb's lettuce," yeah that sounds good, i bet lambs know what's up with lettuce. and suddenly you're awash in drizzled lurpak. "thin slices of sweet emerald green tomatoes" makes me want to eat it NOW, but they only occurs between waves of cheese, harissa and beetroot tatziki. and beef jerky.

(with affection, campari. i'm sure it's delicious, that we are uncomprehending apes before your wisdom-bearing salad monolith.)

is it butter?

dylannn, Monday, 15 July 2013 06:53 (ten years ago) link

it's just a brand, i've had it before, tastes like butter... because it is butter

I believe it.

flamboyant goon tie included, Monday, 15 July 2013 07:11 (ten years ago) link

Not just a brand, also a type. Its danish cultured butter. Very nice.

You can tell it's cultured because the mascot owns a trombone.

That salad is the sort of thing ppl sometimes do on come dine with me and they're really confident that it'll win them the competition, as theyre cooking they say to camera "I came up with it myself, the secret is to put pringles in the soup" and then later it cuts to one of the horrified guests going "it tasted a bit like he put...pringles...in the soup?"

i have noticed people trying to make hot dogs happen of late, it's true. maybe start off by not using those horrible inflatable sausages, i dunno

i'm a subject; you're a object (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 09:26 (ten years ago) link

really hope at some point there's a faction insisting on "frankfurter" or maybe such "franks"

joe perry has been dead for years (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 11:31 (ten years ago) link

do Americans eat sausage rolls? How to make those trendy?

sssshhh! you'll wake the sheeple (dog latin), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 11:48 (ten years ago) link

xp the big innovation over the previous 5 years has been the proliferation of Brats and Bocks, some of which i've actually found edible and similar to their German cousins

i'm a subject; you're a object (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 11:52 (ten years ago) link

how do you make a sausage roll?

you push it down a hill

^ 諷刺 (ken c), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 11:58 (ten years ago) link

One reason for hot dogs’ surge may be that they are priced below other options. According to the Menurama research, hot dogs’ average price of £6.12 ($10.21) is lower than that for any other item in the Top 20 for restaurants. Across all segments, hot dogs average £7.14, compared with £9.42 for a burger, £10.02 for pizza, £9.66 for fish & chips and £8.26 for perennial favorite sausage & mash.

Who the fuck pays £6.12 for a hot dog?

^ 諷刺 (ken c), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 12:00 (ten years ago) link

where the fuck charges those prices? is that Loldon weighting?

i'm a subject; you're a object (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 26 February 2014 12:03 (ten years ago) link

i guess they're "restaurant" prices rather than takeaway but still

yeah US style diners are a thing in London, you can kid yourself you're not eating at a declasse fast food joint while gorging on fatty junk food.

I really, really do wish that Not Dogs or Tofu Pups or whatever would become a thing in Britain, though.

Well, there's always the vegetarian hot dogs at Ikea...

That would involve going to Ikea. I am NEVER going within the biosphere of Croydon ever again.

Branwell, plz order these, they are 1000x tastier than not dogs or tofu pups i SWEAR
