It must be at least 40 years since I last tasted bream which I caught myself from the Sydney river system.Quote:

Noted.Quote:

Twas my thought as well.Quote:

This gives that lovely rich 'yokey' look at the top of the dish.
I don't know if it's officially called 'modern style', but it's how one new restaurant does it in Korat and it seems pretty modern to me.
Never been there meself, mind... just seen the pictures.
No, it's the authentic way to make the dish.Quote:

I am a pretty instinctive cook, mind.
Must admit, I'm a bit bewildered by getting praise for my cooking... a wind up surely? :)
Hope you just add the yolk and not the whole egg?Quote:

^^ The whole shebang mate... are you yolking?
No waste here.
^^ My carbonara has no cream, but it does have a shit load of cheese.
A lot of these old recipes stand to be improved, I feel.
^^^^^Looks like a mouthwatering carbonara masterclass Mendip. Top stuff.
Never have I ever had BBQ lamb until a lovely lady from Guangzhou brought 6 chops over for a Friday BBQ tonight.

Went to the local Irish pub tonight. Seattle is mostly all vaccinated and people are out everywhere. Things are getting back to normal. Sorry, I ate half my fish and a few chips before I shot this. :)

That is my hairy knee in the corner Strigs, but I was forced to repair indoors at half-time for long trousers as the nights have a nip in the air in June.Quote:

I did enjoy those chops last-night and they were cooked perfect. Still tender and pink inside and charred on the edges outside. And it does have a distinctive flavour, but...Quote:
