Im not familiar with Nduja but use pepperoni specifically for pizza. It has less fat content so you dont end up with a pizza swimming in orange oil

Ive had a ***** cold - naturally the wife said it was covid - when she got it and I said SHE had covid....... she said it was a cold!! No wonder the divorce rate is so high.

Fair play mate - forget the smoking bit. In that case, after curing, really let it equalise in the fridge for a minimum of 5 days. Your a beer guy - yes- let time be your friend and leave it there and dont rush. It should still come out hard (like Brett Lee) and easy to carve and portion up. I...

I planned on making this, and forgot to order the ingredients even though it was in my spread sheet! DOH. Gross muppetry

North Wales and sheep, makes the eyes water!

Curing uses salt and sugar - 1 day per 1cm thickness and then 2 days extra. Wash and allow to equalise for 5 days - smoke should you wish and equalise again. so all that smoky flavour gets inside. When you slice it, the bacon should be hard and almost waxy. Ive got 2kg curing in the fridge at...

Im off to Scotland in the new year via Kendal, where my business partner has stuff I need. Together we are moving a lot of gubbins up to Scotland where we are setting up a cafe and guided walking business. Naturally now seems the best time to set things up. Anyway, to the point, I need to buy a...

Last time I was in a spoons, (the Counting House (posh?)), one of the kitchen staff came out, sat down, and ate a meal. He looked like a filthy tramp, with chip fat hair, and put me right off their food. Not sure Ive been in one since. When Im in the "City" I have a few faves which are mostly...

I put up a post some months ago which caused much derision, where I stated that hoppy beers make me sneeze. I also found that strong beer and spirits made me giddy!

Its what Mr Khan has decreed for London and TFL - he has complete overall control. Nothing to do with whats happening elsewhere

Yes - Ive always found (personally) doing a small batch is harder than doing 10 L. Large amounts of trub can be a problem when doin BIAB IMO, if you want to keep it simple and not getting extra vessels and drilling holes etc etc etc - its a slippery slope of no return!. Ive just today bottled a...

That looks amazing. The clarity is something to behold

The article I read said there were no deaths in SA, some sources are more reliable than others. Dont ask the Chinese for an opinion!

I "think" this is true, because I have no evidence either way

Well, Im just getting over the worst cold Ive had in years. Naturally my Dr Wife said it was covid. Naturally I told her to get lost, because I knew it wasn't, and testing proved this (if you believe tests). Now she's got this lurgi, she feels awful, and told me it was just a bad cold, without a...

There was a forum member on here many moons ago who got me into whole grain, and he did a chinook SMASH. I scaled it up for 10L and blooming nice it was too. So this slightly maligned hop, can, IMO, with care, make a great beer.
