    Oh dear, I think I've just 'cooked my goose' with that last posting, haven't I?

    Hang on, here's a thought: 4'33" recipes: take any foodstuff and cook it according to chance procedures. Enjoy. Please leave a 10% tip for the waiter.

    Talking about food, I've got that Jamie Oliver "30-minute" recipe book. It's not bad at all, though I'm not into setting a stopwatch as I cook. Apparently he's brought out a new one: "15-minute recipes". OK, why not. And next year? 7-minute recipes? Anyway, I'll be the first to buy any cook book that offers 4'33" recipes. Probably macrobiotic. No meat. On second thoughts, no I won't.

    Although I will eat almost anything, I have to say there is one French delicacy I can't quite stomach, and that is sheep's brain. I gave it a go once. OK, so I tried it, but I'm not going to rush out and buy kilos of the stuff.
    Also Brussels sprouts ... no thanks. And a big "No" to parsnips. Memories of my school canteen.

    Hi Preston, thanks for your reply. Yes, they do that in Spain, though not in Madrid! Anyway, you should go and visit India sometime! Holy Cow!!!!

    Ah Sorrano, you have a mind like mine! I take a drive in the country, and there in the back seat is my daughter saying things like "Ah Papa, look! A lovely horse! A deer! Some sheep!" etc etc ...
    I'm like that wolf in the Tex Avery cartoons: when I see an animal I see the food on a plate. Depending on the animal, of course. I'll eat almost anything, though.

    started a topic Jamón Ibérico

    Jamón Ibérico

    Well, here's a link to a photo-article on some great Spanish ham that I love (though it is expensive!). The article refers to it as Jamón Ibérico, but I've always called it 'Pata Negra'. Anyway, I'm getting some in for Xmas.
