Chili chop Because you have chosen to live in a country which inexplicably refuses to import Sriracha chili sauce, and because your dependence upon Scoville units shows no signs of abating, and because you are the sort who is not afraid to experiment with a blender, you have created an airborne toxic event in the [...] Me: I am going to have to take a picture of this sandwich. The Polish breakfast sandwich is essentially a sandwich much like many other sandwiches. It happens [...] This week I was marginally less behind in things and so have not been merely browsing the B section of Larousse’s Gastronomique (as in last week’s entry, Browsing ‘A’), but reading every word of every entry under ‘B’.

With Old Bay Seasoning courtesy of Jane, that’s crab salad. The debate rages on about who loves who(m) more. When I say “All the way,” Magda wants to know how far that is. All the way where? “To the Crab Nebula,” I reply. “And back.” “How far is that?” [Two Googly [...] For any who never had the joy of working in the food service industry, a “sheet tray” or “sheet pan” is a heavy-gauge aluminium rectangle with a high lip and far more uses than simply turning out large, flat cakes, the function for which it was designed.
