This special treat from another of the books that surfaced as I was packing in preparation for moving house. It’s from ‘Cakes Men Like‘, by Benjamin Darling – a special paean to the lost art of Extreme Baking.
Tetherd Cow Ahead Serving Suggestion: a small slice accompanied by a chilled pork martini.
Mmmm.
I think a lot of men would object to the cloves
“…because a quicker oven will run away if you try to bake this.”
Raisins *and* currants?
Chicken Ripple Icecream to follow!
nursemyra: Yeah, I see where you’re coming from. Personally, there’s really not enough meat at all for me. I’d add a kilo of prime Angus and garnish with chipolatas.
Casey: Hahaha! Oh yes, this is not a recipe for the faint-hearted.
Jam: Gilding the lily, you think? Or trying to make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear?
Meggie: The sky’s the limit when it comes to the wonders of Food Science!
speechless.
I was in a a chain restaurant the other day that had a poster advertising their holiday gift cards: “We like bacon, not fruitcake!” Sounds good to me.
pork martini? only if it is made from spam. mmmm spamtini!
