Am I the only one on this thread who thinks a chip butty sounds good?
Not at all. Sounds quite tasty. And I'll be giving it a try soonest.
Happily, I have some REAL butter in the fridge. I just hope I still have some malt vinegar in the pantry.

I just hope I still have some malt vinegar in the pantry. I have got to write that down. I have not had any malt vinegar in my pantry in ages and it always seems that when I'm buying vinegar (I make jellies and so go thru at least 2 gallons a month) I always forget to buy some.

Your mother must have gone to the same cooking school. My mom was a great cook for everything except green vegetables. She boiled them all to within an inch of edibility.

I didn't eat vegetables on a regular basis for years, unless I cooked them.
during my last year in school, while still living at home before I moved from NYC to Delaware, I did all the cooking. Neither my mother or brother would eat the veggies I cooked because they considered them to still be raw.
I'm sorry, but I want some texture in my veggies. Cauliflower should not have the consistency of mashed potatoes, nor should asparagus. Most especially at the prices we were paying for both back then (1981-82)

Well there you go, low glycemic chip butty, boiled turnips between a couple of digestives, perhaps topped with a few peas. Cheers!

Neither my mother or brother would eat the veggies I cooked because they considered them to still be raw. My husband had to teach me how to cook vegetables. Just recently, I found out that it is my father who insists upon eating mushy veggies. I cooked fresh green beans for my mother just the other day. She liked them, but after canned green beans, my kids refuse them.

To be perfectly honest, brussel sprouts are one of the very few veggies I have no idea how to cook. 2 cup sprouts cleaned and rinsed
1/4 cup water
1 tbl butter
Salt
Arrange sprouts in a flat bottomed microwave safe dish (I use a pyrex pie dish) Add water.
Microwave on high power 5 minutes.
Stir and add butter.
Microwave on high power another 2 to 3 minutes until stem ends are just tender.
Salt to taste and serve.

I knew I had some apple cider and some rice wine, but I hadn't used the malt since our last catfish fry. Got to dose up them hush puppies you know.
I went and checked, there's still a 1/4 bottle.(/cheer) More than enough for a butty or two I'm sure. (/grin)
I'll just have to remember to put it on my list so I don't run out.

What kind of jellies do you make Gabz?

They don't give a hoot about small business - whether it be smoking or the menu - they know what is best for the sheeple, not the business owners or customers.

Cotswold is a double Gloucester cheese with chives. You can find it at most good American grocery stores in the gourmet cheese section.

I was in Cornwall in September and since I don't eat meat, I had a veggie pasty. I know....I know....never as good as with meat. But, it was still delicious to me.
Thanks for the recipe. Will file it. Who knows???????
