Holy crap, I served that exact sambocade recipe to my medieval lit class in college, from what I think was the same manuscript! It turned out well enough, considering it was most of my final oral presentation. There was also a kind a mushroom quiche that I agreed to make before I realized exactly how pricy saffron is, so I guess I really paid for that B+.

Every single time I watched Chopped one of the chef contestants would be browsing the spice shelf, pick up the saffron, and use a gigantic clump of it. And I would just shake my head slowly.

saffron was widely cultivated in western europe for much of the middle ages so it wouldn't necessarily have been considered the luxury ingredient it is now
in fact depending on the area and time period it might have been a staple flavoring agent, like black pepper is today

That would certainly explain it's prevalence in mediaeval cookery.

Thats interesting.
And yes, why does almost literally everything have salt and pepper added to them.

I keep wondering this myself.
I get the salt thing, it enhances flavour. But why pepper? Pepper just makes things taste like pepper. Who decided that every single meal should taste at least a little bit like pepper?
Well my dogs love Bk's nuggets they will rough you up for them
as I got the family deal 3 whoppers 3 cheeseburgers 3 small fries and gave the buns from one of the burgers to the dogs
It was odd as the last time I went to BK was back in May they were only doing drive up so it was rather awkward to do on a bike so they handed my food with one of those long hand things from the door
the correct amount of salt makes food taste more like itself
In one of the videos I posted earlier the one where he eats Banquet's Dynamite Penne https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5f-PCiVnc-M
He points out the sodium amount well since I stock that stuff I have been looking at the sodium rates the Buffalo chicken one of this series has over 2700MG of sodium in one serving

I maintain that chefs just like doing the twist-the-grinder motion over pots, it’s soothing and kind of fun.

It's my sister-in-law's birthday today. Because I am terrible at thinking of gifts to buy I like to just do the birthday food and then I get out of thinking up a present.
For dinner I'm going to do home-made chicken kievs full of garlic butter, chunky chips roasted in goose fat, and sautéed savoy cabbage with cream and bacon bits.
Birthday cake is chocolate sponge filled with strawberries and cream.
The pumpkin spice blend is a delicious blend of spices that are very versatile and I wish pumpkin spice flavored products were available all year.
"Pumpkin pie spice, also known as pumpkin spice, is an American spice mix commonly used as an ingredient in pumpkin pie. Pumpkin pie spice is similar to the British and Commonwealth mixed spice. It is generally a blend of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and sometimes allspice"
I don't see myself ever using cloves, or I would make my own mix

It’s almost more about chemistry than the flavor of salt, in some cases.
If you add salt to salt it will taste saltier.
Yeah that fuckin' guard wouldn't let me in until I gave him a drink from an entirely different city.

Probably that asshole Barry Pepper.
Just kidding he's probably a great guy.

And for a gift I've made these gin and tonic truffles
Happy birthday! I got you heart disease!
I haven't seen that for years (?) but the sound of the spice weasel comes instantly to mind.
I had absolutely no idea who the character was supposed to be satirizing. I think the first american guy I dated had to explain it to me.
Have these companies no shame?
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
Up to these posts I didn't know about that at all.

Cloves are nice though. But really strong! You usually only need 1-2 in a dish.
