Happy days...

It's a different kind of heat, isn't it?

When you put too much on and it goes up the back of your nose has you reassessing your life choice though.

Just a little bit on a ham sandwich, with a pork pie or on a breakfast though. Yes please.

I had an Aussie tell me to mix it with tea instead of water. Any truth to that?

I've not seen Colman's here.

**taxexile** · 25-11-2025, 08:58 PM

It's a fine mustard, in powder form it's a very strong hit and very wasabi like as per the video.

good with fish too.

**kingwilly** · 25-11-2025, 11:05 PM

Good with Roast chicken.

And nice in a beef sandwich.

Do you remember Brannigans roast beef and mustard crisps in the 90s?

Phwoar.

What a crisp they were.

Coleman’s is up there.

But the Aussie stuff separates the men from the boys and girls.

^ I just looked at shopee, that jar is $15 US here in the PI.

**Mendip** · 26-11-2025, 11:26 AM

^ I often mix in a bit with mayonaise to liven things up a bit.

Sprinkling in the powder works well.

So, English Hot Mustard vs. German Hot Mustard

I've always preferred German. Colman's is good, don't get me wrong, but any German hot mustard blows it away.

German mustard is rarely hot though, is it? The majority when you're in a restaurant or at an imbiss gaff tends to be similar to the American but not as sweet.

I think it depends what you're eating too. With sandwiches, cold cuts and pork pies etc, it's gotta be English. German just edges it with a sausage.

Invited to lunch with long term friends at their place today, along with a couple of mutual friends. They're getting on a bit now, so I always offer to make something to bring along if we're eating at their place. Their daughter-in-law had made some chilli con carne for their freezer on a recent visit, so that was the basis of the lunch. I made some guacamole, pico de gallo, tortilla chips and Mexican rice to go along with it.

**kingwilly** · 26-11-2025, 11:34 PM

A feast! When are you coming to my place?

**hallelujah** · 30-11-2025, 12:46 PM

Nipped in work Friday morning for 30 minutes and ended up being there for 3 hours after being met with a shitstorm or twelve that I had to sort out.

Breakfast was missed and I needed a big lunch to see me fat knees and fat belly through the day cos I knew I couldn't get away until late.

Anyway, I've recently been going to a place that my Indian barber shop has recommended, which is used by all the Indian students, so I smashed a chicken 65 biryani and a garlic naan.

15 Euros for the lot. Bosh!

I was into that like chitty is with his nans and the owner and the cooks are all my pals now, so I reckon that 200 kg mark is well within reach.

What, both of them?

**Mendip** · 01-12-2025, 11:59 AM

Squid basil.

**Reg Dingle** · 01-12-2025, 12:21 PM

^You sure that's squid...Looks like a plate of Basil's sphincter in need of a tongue darting

As someone with more experience of assholes how do you usually serve them, buttered or al dente?

**Topper** · 01-12-2025, 02:15 PM

Mendip, was the squid a might chewy?

**PAG** · 01-12-2025, 03:14 PM

One of my favourite lunches I make at home, Chinese style cashew chicken.

**Reg Dingle** · 01-12-2025, 03:27 PM

^ Looks great. What a contrast

Because they're an improvement on your fashion pics?

And he loads it with garlic.

Prefer moo myself.
