I actually worked in catering quite a lot in my twenties (proper catering, not 'fries with that' 😉). It was my fallback job when I got sacked/got bored in other jobs. People slating Crawley for his Pot Noodle butties - I've known top drawer chefs (me too) who ate absolute shite off the clock; Pot Noodles, Ramen, Rustler Burgers, Space Raiders (sometimes on bread), Fray Bentos Pies, Holland's Puddings, Garage Forecourt butties, pastie barms, elephant leg kebabs, Koolios Fried Chicken... The last thing anyone wants to do getting in at 11pm is fuck about cooking (after doing it all day).

She lived at home before she met me (she was only a whippernsapper) Her mum and dad have one but I refuse to eat anything that they put in it. Not because there is anything wrong with it but because I’m a cunt and it winds her mum up (36dd) who I fucking hate and vice versa. ive even left perfectly tasty food on the pretense of not liking it just to piss the witch off.

Or the sort of animal who dunks biscuits into his tea/coffee Club shop, now. Fish with gravy? Why not just accuse me of being a stand-up wiper and be done with it? I was brought up in a working class family in the 80's - I was one of the aspirational 'hankering for a wok' Miami Vice generation. I rejected my heritage with extreme prejudice. I was cooking for myself from 13ish. I bought my 1st bottle of Beaujolais Nouveau at about 15 from the old Sainsbury's (I was still supping Breaker and Colt45 on Friday street/fairground pissups). Jacques Pepin, Keith, Ken Hom...I used to watch them all. I am an excellent chef. So up yours. 😀 I bet you mince around Waitrose putting poncey foodstuffs you've no idea what to do with in your trolley to try and impress the other faux posho shoppers and the tillperson. You stick this stuff in the cupboard and fridge to slowly go off whilst you speeddial Dominos for your regular 22" stuffed crust family mealdeal. I bet you've sent back screwtop in restaurants claiming it's 'corked'. I bet you think Salsify is QPR's reserve 'keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only real difference in how they taste is how well mashed they are and what you add to them. Mash can be overmashed - the carb cells broken down to the point of gloop. Mash making is an art. Freezing mash is good, one can ice-skim water, creating a very light and fluffy mash. Youri Bloomenttall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youri McAnespie Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Well technically they do, as everyone knows, 'curry' pretty much means 'gravy' in the former Indian Empire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only recently discovered freezing mash instead of throwing out spuds that are a little bit past their best. Absolute revelation, really can't believe how well they turn up. I very much draw the line at buying pre-frozen mash though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
