BRUSSELS SPROUT FEVER

This is a follow up to yesterday's brussels sprout post. I would have put it up yesterday, but there's no meat on Fridays in my house. If I've made a meat post on a Friday, well, my bad, it won't happen again. Anyway, interesting recipe here from Gordon Ramsay. I actually did a variation of this last week before seeing this video. I used some homemade cured sausage but no nuts. BTW... what's the deal with brussels sprouts and Christmas in the U.K.? Can anyone explain this to me?

FISHY FRIDAYS: UTLIMATE FISH 'N' CHIPS

Have I told you how much I love fish 'n' chips?! Here's an take on the dish that looks delicious. I'd advise against using beef fat to fry everything on a Friday. That's the Catholic in me talking. The rest of the week, I say it's fair game. The guys in the video make a little tartar sauce to go along with the fish, but I'm not sure I buy the line that it's the best you'll ever taste. Come on, guys, really? The best?

FISHY FRIDAYS: HESTON'S FISH 'N' CHIPS

Have you ever had fish 'n' chips? I love the meal. This is a slightly different take on it. I didn't believe what kind of alcohol they threw into the batter. I'm not a fan if you have to use canisters of compressed gases to cook food. There's no way I'm going there in my kitchen.

SPECIAL CHRISTMAS BRUSSELS SPROUTS?

Okay, the timing of this video is WAY off. Still, I love brussels sprouts. They're not everyone's favourites, and they're not really mine, but I like to learn new ways of cooking them. Let's face it, if you're just boiling them... there's something wrong with you. 

PS - Don't worry about the Christmas theme in April.
