Derry Alli Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Aye its just meat mashed up and bashed into lorne shape, basically. So what you get is visually lorne but texturally your brain thinks its just wet lorne. Its shite. Spoiler I say shite, it was alright. The boy gave it the whole "I'm from down South and would never go back to lorne" spiel. Nice fella. Needed reigned in though. Lorne is BAE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 The subtleties of the Yorkie Pudding continues to evade me a wee bit although it was toad in the hole tonight..... James Martins massively egg heavy recipe which looks fantastic when he does individual ones but in a big dish, I suspect the heat just can't get through and the middle can't get light and airy. Ends up almost like a really densely set Custard Will try again for actual puddings. The toad in the hole will have to be a lighter batter I think 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've worked on the ship up there for a long long time and still never tried it thanks to the old sheltie boy I worked with explaining how it got its name and what it was! also took me years to eat cod and skate and thankfully I never liked salmon but wouldn't have eaten that again either! I'm not sure if he was just enjoying adding to my winter sea sickness 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanius Mullarkey Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 On the saucermeat thing, I was recently in Burntisland and went into the Links Chipper. Saw they had Red Puddings so ordered one as the bairn was after one. By f**k was that a mistake. It had a texture of raw mince although it was clearly some kind of "cooked meat". Fucking horrendous. I would imagine that's what saucermeat tastes like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine that's what saucermeat tastes like. Saucermeat is genuinely exactly like square sausage. I'm not sure what folk think it is, but square sausage is as close as you are getting to a comparison. I can only assume the bit Derry Alli had was just..... shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full of connective tissue type stuff that stews down great I love all those slow cook meats, oxtail beef cheeks etc when you get it correct it is so worth the effort. I started the Ragu yesterday at dinner time and cooked it for 4 or so hours and then left it in the oven with lid off while it cooled then put it on the hob tonight to warm thorough really low for a couple of hours, the bone just slipped out the meat. I wonder if the beef haugh would be shin of beef? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
