I had some of the roasts and the skin was almost black, it wouldn't put me off but I'm sure it would a lot of people.it's unbelievable the difference isn't it. like everything though eh the more you put in the more you get out.
man i had an awesome butcher just up the road from me but the area sadly became over run with asian families who all want halal and he just wasn't making enough money. though he was clearly the best butcher for miles. i'm not racist but i don't get how they just go and watch their butcher just band saw up some scrawny looking mutton and pay a pittance for it.I had some of the roasts and the skin was almost black, it wouldn't put me off but I'm sure it would a lot of people.
I think a lot of folk especially the urbanites prefer to see the fancily packed meats on the supermarket shelf, personally I'd prefer the quality regardless of visual appeal.
I seen it when I lived in London, all the traditional English butchers went out of business one by one because of the Halal butchers, there was no comparison in quality and for an extra fiver in the English butcher you got top quality.man i had an awesome butcher just up the road from me but the area sadly became over run with asian families who all want halal and he just wasn't making enough money. though he was clearly the best butcher for miles. i'm not racist but i don't get how they just go and watch their butcher just band saw up some scrawny looking mutton and pay a pittance for it.
Between that and stupid EU rules, I don't know the last time I seen a pork chop with the kidney on or a T-bone with the bone.it's heartbreaking. these days even the supermarkets are mislabelling cuts to make a bit more coin.
That looks very nice. I tried tofu in a salad and there is nothing wrong with it at all. I probably wouldn't be creative enough to use it everyday though.okok i bad the best creamy avocado dressing yesterday WHY HAVE I NOT THOUGHT ABOUT THIS BEFORE i put it together with homemade taco bowls LOL View attachment 3019937 yes i have a magic bullet hahah i also made tofu feta which im sure 99.9% of you think is nasty but it actually tasted the exact same if not similar to it,
preaching to the choir man. that hugh fear stanly posh knob cookery guy was o about that in his shows, you can bring the stuff back and just ditch it over the side, he had droves of people picking up great fish that the EU said they couldn't land. utter bollocks it is.Between that and stupid EU rules, I don't know the last time I seen a pork chop with the kidney on or a T-bone with the bone.
The amount the supermarkets dump because of "display by dates" etc is shocking, farmers are forced because of low prices to adopt intensive farming methods which cannot ever be a good thing.
Even the amount of fish dumped overboard because of quotas is criminal.
There was a case here recently where a fisherman was nearly jailed because he was giving away monk fish on the pier.

I just think it's sinful throwing away perfectly good fish like that.preaching to the choir man. that hugh fear stanly posh knob cookery guy was o about that in his shows, you can bring the stuff back and just ditch it over the side, he had droves of people picking up great fish that the EU said they couldn't land. utter bollocks it is.
The cake looks great, most people wouldn't know the difference from that and a regular cake.yup creative is needed, i do bbq tofu, tofu feta i press and marinate it in lemon juice oregano , salt and pepper and nutirtional yeast for 48 hours , also make tofu ricotta to stuff pasta shells with . i also do grilled tofu , deep fried tofu, agadashi tofu, silken tofu can be used in desserts to create a smooth texture, ive not yet done it but they all look really good
ive always liked tofu even before i went vegan, i dont eat too much of it maybe once or twice a week sometimes never
my birthday cake was actually made out of tofu last year View attachment 3020019 it was very rich and creamy like a cheesecake without that heavy feeling
yeah you just press it put it in a blender with some oil , basil nutritional yeast, garlic blend until smooth/ricotta texture stuff it pasta sauce viola LOLThe cake looks great, most people wouldn't know the difference from that and a regular cake.
I like the sound of the tofu ricotta, I'd say it goes really well with pasta.
Couldn't be easier.yeah you just press it put it in a blender with some oil , basil nutritional yeast, garlic blend until smooth/ricotta texture stuff it pasta sauce viola LOL
