The cheek! No, pasta-y things that are dead nice before. Bolognese or Gorgonzola sauce (which is AMAZING btw). Stick them in freezer. Take them out the night before, don't taste of much at all when I eat them.

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
Pasta won't freeze nicely. After that, I take it you reheated it?
The problem with dairy produce (IRO Gorgonzola sauce) is that the solids and liquids seperate when you defrost them. But bear in mind that the second taste of anything will always be less powerful than the first. Its the nature of our bodies.

Tonight was a choice between vegetable lasagne and a multitude of casseroles, including pork, chorizo and butter bean, a personal faveourite. Key to the whole night's gastronomic extravaganza however was a little something I had a massive craving for all day; a chocolate cornflake cake

Very decent indeed at that price. Slightly jammy for my taste. The aldi red that floats my boat is a quid more - Bordeaux Superiour at £4.99.Bruce Rioja wrote:Verdict, William?William the White wrote:

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?

I really am gonna have to learn the wine-lingo one day - it's a world completely alien to me! not speaking the language, I don't even know how to enter it...Bruce Rioja wrote:Can see what you mean re - slightly jammy, certainly wouldn't want it to head out any further in that direction.William the White wrote:Very decent indeed at that price.

how does one go about learning how to talk about wine - is it just esteemed and well-educated company - or is there a short cut for s/o like me?

Re: What are you eating and drinking tonight?
Start by drinking some, then describing what you taste.

Syrah/Shiraz, yes?
Possibly a Rhone Blend, or from SA or Oz.

Bingo! Cheap and slightly less than nasty Sainbo's blend. Not exactly Cote Rotie but it hits the spot.Lord Kangana wrote:Syrah/Shiraz, yes?

Bish, you need to upscale your communion wine.

On a scale of 1-10 you are a 0-beyond redemption. Sorry.
