Food Glorious Food!

[wildeabandon]

You know, I don't think I've talked about food on here for a while, at least not more than in passing. That can't possibly be right. Talk to me about food, people! Actually, I know, I can have a poll - not only will it allow me to indulge my curiosity, but I can use it for reference when you come to dinner.

[Poll #1161910]

And finally, if you're so inclined, give me your favourite recipes, tell me about wonderful meals or give me anecdotes about hilarious food mishaps.

Once we (Laura, Liz and me) made this cake that wanted whipped egg whites in it to hold it up. Only, the recipe didn't say at the start "the main thing giving the texture of this cake is whipped egg white", it just had a list of steps. So not realising how critically important it was, I gave the egg yolks to Laura to whip by the time honoured method of putting fork and jug in her hand and saying "X's testicles*" whenever she stopped. (This was before I got my mixer.) It was not actually as flat as one might have expected...

*where X is somebody heartily disliked by her and many others
