    WE ARE STILL MEN, so let's exchange cooking tips. I have found sambal to be an excellent addition to my basic pasta-sause. It used to be chopped tomatoes, onions, fresh basilicum, and too much garlic (is there such a thing), but adding a few spoons of sambal makes the basis of the sauce complete. Add Shrimps and some fresh lemon.

    edit, forgot mentioning oregano, essential.

    I learned yesterday a really simple yet delicious peanut butter pie: one cup of creamy peanut butter, one cup of pasteurized egg yolks, and one cup of marshmallow fluff. Mix and pour into a cooked pie crust. Freeze, then serve. Really simple.

    Didn't really know where to put this, so I thought here would be ok.



    Off to see the Rocky Horror Show in Manchester next January. Havn't been to one since the 80s. Shoot be a hoot!
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    There is nothing more manly than cooking.
    Hammer, anvil, forge and fire, chase away The Hoofed Liar. Roof and doorway, block and beam, chase The Trickster from our dreams.
    Vigilance is our shield, that protects us from our squalid past. Knowledge is our weapon, with which we carve a path to an enlightened future.

    Have to agree with you about Sambal, bit of Chili only enhances a pasta sauce and brings up the flavours and no there is never too much garlic in a tomato pasta sauce.

    My tip is to use canned tomatoes rather then fresh for a pasta sauce. While in most things fresh is best. It does not apply always. My favourite brand of canned tomatoes for pasta sauce is Italian Mutti.

    Best thing about chicken is that it is almost impossible to ruin. Lots and lots of Finnish forest-herbs, mauled dried mushrooms, and smoked salt make an excellent mix. A deer roast would be a better idea but deer is expensive, chicken will have to do. These herbs are impossible to get here but my mom goes to Scandinavia a lot.

    Made Beef Goulash yesterday for myself and the Woman. I guess its more Pörkölt as no meat goes into my stews without going to the pan before cooking.

    Beef,Onion,Paprika or is it bell pepper, Garlic, Tomatoes, tomato puree,brown stock and Hungarian semi Sweet red wine. For spices salt and pepper, ton of Paprika powder, cumin seeds, bay leaves and some Chili sauce. Salad and this season potatoes to go with it and voila!
