I only had dried fenugreek leaves. Not sure what the seeds taste like, but this is what I did with the leaves:How did you do the potato and fenugreek curry? I have a packet of Fenugreek seeds in the cupboard, and they have been there for too long, unused, unopened ....
Why is what other people have for dinner so interesting? I don't understand it, but I like to know. 553 pages can't be wrong... why does it interest us so much? What internet randoms have for dinner? Why do we feel the urge to tell strangers what we're eating? Weird innit, but here we are!!

lol, nah it's all about the food for me... I love food, growing it, cooking, baking, photographing and eating it. I like reading about it and getting new ideas. Nowt oedipal or sexual about it, well apart from some dishesOedipal stuff. It is a more civilised way of asking what goes on behind closed doors.

It's also, for me, the highest form of alchemy. Food and the cooking of it is almost fucking sacred to me, no word of a lie. Good food is made with love and care in it, and it shows.[/quote]
Word
There's nothing better than good food and good company (and perhaps a glass or two of wine).
Even just a simple family meal with us all sat round the table is special to me.

I started the original, years ago and it's one of the biggest longest running threads. I started it cos I am absolutely obsessed with food, with creating it and eating it. It's pretty much the first thing I think about when I wake up, and I bloody love that there are loads of people on here like me, cos it's dead handy sometimes for inspiration and it's nice to share an obsession
Blissed fucking OUT![]()
It is food, it has got to go in your mouth... doesn't make it a fixationOK, then it's an oral fixation - still Freudian. Oral, anal, genital, oedipal, same difference.
PS I love the thread and foodies and inspiration. Well done
Oh cock offHang on, something's amiss here: the board software seems to have muddled up Soj's posts with Cheeyspoof's

I love food, but sacred? And I don't want none of this alchemy lark - I ain't trying to make a amulet of purest green when I'm cooking. I'm generally trying to showcase the ingredients to their best advantage. Love cooking mind - it's a fundamental everyday pleasure.

Will be baking a banana and choc chip loaf for later...this week I'll be using bicarb and not baking powder...I thought I could substitute one for the other, but it came out bitter tasting last week?
Does the recipe include bicarb? I normally use baking powder in cakes, I'm not sure it would be the baking powder making it taste bitter?
