    Not sure what’s going on with the angle of the photos.

    It look like the upload process tilts them to a different angle.

    I haven’t photographed from a wankery angle.

    Rhubarb crumble.

    Ha. Sound like the same stuff.
    .

    But when cooked in any sauce or baked in any dish it takes on that flavour.

    First time I had it was really simple pan fried with salt and pepper in Indonesia. I just loved it and have been eating it since.

    Cheer forr the tips. I should be a bit more inventive with it.
    We'd normally marinade them in Korean bulgogi BBQ sauce (accidentally vegan) and bake them in the oven after leaving it for a while. Great in a sandwich or with a salad.

    Still can’t work out how to just upload photo and not link.

    Still can’t work out why it’s slightly rotated after upload too.

    I find posting to imgur.com and getting a link is very good, and you can even add a letter yourself before .jpg to change the size , s,m,l for small, medium or large.


    For instance in my pic above it is imgur .com/UZtIHocl.jpg to indicate large, if I change that to imgur .com/UZtIHocm.jpg it would be smaller.

    More birthday food. Veginity used to sell slices of a poppy seed frangipane which is my girlfriends favourite cake in the world. They stopped doing it at the start of the pandemic and she has been talking about to ever since. They don't do orders but I asked in case they would, and they made it for me to give to her, my ears have barely recovered from her excitement hahaha.

    Also here is some banana bread I made recently with bourneville chocolate buttons, walnuts and raisins:

    A good honest solid breakfast.

    Not sure how popular sprouted bread is in Europe but 2 small slices will fill you for hours.

    One with vegemite, avocado, red onion and tomato.

    One with curried tempeh.
