I know they are wank but sort of nostalgic wank I purposely said Bachelor's cos they really are good. Tinned pots are quick and handy tbh but quality can be varied, tried most of the brand's out there, these really are decent Cheers, D. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My local butcher does sell beef dripping but he has to filter out the brown bits before it goes in the tubs, otherwise people won't buy it. He also has to trim the skin off pork - I get a bit for free whenever I shop in there. He bins loads of it because his customers have either never heard of or never tried crackling Fckn same over here murder trying to find skin on the pork they ain’t geared upto get rid of the hair so the butchers just skin the hog shameful 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was going to offer to give you a shout next time I've been to the butchers. This is crackling done with salt and maple syrup - I like to leave a bit of fat on it. It is crunchy but, not a teeth breaker 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yet they've all liked crackling, rabbit pasties and squirrel pie when I've taken some in. ......... Small wins I suppose 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

eastcoast 3,728 Posted February 19, 2021 Report Share Posted February 19, 2021 walking back into the estate and through the streets to home after exercising the dog on a lovely still and calm night I was struck by the smells coming from the open steamed up windows from people's tea/dinner being cooked. Lovely smells. Garlic, herbs and exotic spices. Not many "non-indigenous" or ethnic minorities live around here. Shows how much people's tastes have changed. Friday used to be fish n chips. Not complaining, just wish somebody would invite me in for tea. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
