TRO Saracen Jul 2020 1:12pm, 1 Jul 2020 21,430 posts	0 TRO Saracen I guarantee that, if cooked correctly, that recipe would have no actual taste of rhubarb. It’s only listed as an ingredient to make it sound edgy and modern and different.

TRO Saracen Jul 2020 3:43pm, 1 Jul 2020 21,431 posts	0 TRO Saracen Yeah but Nic I could drench my kitchen in half a bottle of Kouros and it would smell nice but it still wouldn’t make me want to eat Rhubarb. To be fair it wouldn’t make me want to drink Kouros either....

Where does the room stand on liver? I luuuuuuurve liver, but the female two thirds of the household hate it. It's a rare treat. (in both senses of the word).

Dvorak Jul 2020 3:59pm, 1 Jul 2020 20,090 posts	0 Dvorak Spargelsaison. Whoppers! Eaten with hollandaise, boiled potatoes and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. And possibly ham, if you're that type. Rhubarb just never came on this year. I like rhubarb. Disappointed. Though I have a new variety growing quite well in a pot (raspberry rhubarb), so, hopefully next year.
