Good (if unusual) Food Combinations

Sundae · 10-04-2013, 03:09 PM

We sell black pudding Scotch Eggs; instead of sausagemeat, a thin layer of black pudding is applied to the egg.

We also sell fig & apple topped pork pies. Now I'm no pork pie fan, but these are yummy.

Part of my health kick is not eating any of the official wastage. For example we "face off" the ham & pate every morning & it is all discarded (and the pate containers washed.) All weighed as wastage, all discarded.

So I had been in the habit of sneaking a few tasters. Well you have to be confident when talking to the customers - it's that kind of place!

Thing is, I know the ones I like especially now, so have snacked on face-offs 4 out of 5 days a week. Naughty. No more. And no more "Display Until" pastry that was missed the night beforewhich is also weighed then disacrded. Growly belly.

Current faves it's hard to stay away from are not massively unusual, but not in every corner shop - Dry Cured Ham With Molasses and Scrumpy Cider and also Wensleydale with Fig & Orange Blossom Honey. I'm not a huge fan of flavoured cheese, but this one is good. And crumbly. And easy to pop into mouths.

A lot of those sound really good. I'd love to try the pork pie and the dry cured ham with molasses.

OK, I don't know how to remove that thumbs down sign.

I didn't click on that! I don't know why it's there.

Edit: Obviously, I figured it out. Because it's gone.
