asool ketchup or brown sauce?

it may be relegated to the 2nd best if you pick the wrong one

[asool]

Sauce....!!!!! You are not permitted to pollute the pure, salty savouriness of the bacon with SAUCE!

Though if the bacon was extracted from between the bread and accompanied by an egg, and the bread fried then Brown Sauce would be an option, so long as it was "Daddies Sauce", not just any old brown muck!

That IS the correct answer. If you remember I am un-challengeable due to my bloody mindedness.

Asool

PS Real Life Sucks

[Gristle]

Daddies sauce > HP

[Rafrok]

Rules are rules.. ketchup on bacon, brown on sausages! If we didn't have rules where would we be? Stormwind!

[Gristle]

ketchup is the devils condiment, may as well pour half a bag of sugar on anything you eat.

[Problemchild]

HP sauce is the don. There is no debate.

Tomato sauce is for the weak and feeble minded. Daddy's sauce is for the destitute who shop at Spa, cos its a bank holiday and they forgot to get propper food in.

There are rules, Rafrok you are correct. In fact the missing '11th commandement' reads:

11, And lo, with any form of sausage or bacon, thou shalt only use HP sauce (but dont get it anywhere near your fried egg).

Once you know this then the burning bush makes much more sense. Its a shame they forgot to mention the red hot frying pan sat on top of it....

[Halitosis]

Actually....

In England there were tests about Brown sauce and tomato ketchup. It turned out that the further north you go the more peopel prefer Brown Sauce (HP sauce accept no subsitute!) and the more South you go the more people prefer Tomato Ketchup.

So it only goes to show :)

[Gristle]

So it only goes to showthat you are all noobs except Gristle and Asool, who have discovered the true beauty of 'The Daddy' of sauces.

Fixed.

[Suplicium]

Sorry, but in Italy we developed cooking to the point that there is no need to use some taste covering crap like sauces in order to prepare something not only edible but also very tasty. Sauces are for cultures whose brains did not develop enough during a prior evolutionary phase, so sorry for you brits and ah.... lol..... the garlic using snail eaters too...... ofc you need industrially assembled sauces if you eat junk!

[Gristle]

ROFL!

Nice post Gwyn, but we were doing okay as a culture till you lot came and 'civilised' us!! Mud and Twigs a la carte FTW!

[draconi]

Hmmm plain pasta. hhmmmmm

[Wasabi]

Gwyn dont talk crap....

Let me give some examples:

Lasagna

Osso Bucco (braised veal on bone with lotsa veggies which make the sauce).
http://www.winechief.com/RestaurantOOsso.JPG

Vitello Tonato (Veal thin sliced and served with a tunin/capre cream sauce).

Pasta Vongole (pasta with clams).

And i could go on for hours and hours, just placed 4 of my favorite ITALIAN dishes here.

[draconi]

point proven: Education rocks.

[Suplicium]

and you want to compare that to Ketchup and HP sauce made in greasy industrial complexes? Italian ones are not sauces, they are food, there is a huge difference!

[Gristle]

I thought the point was Veal is the superior meat of choice, and the Italians cook it better than anyone?

[Suplicium]

Veal is good, but many types of meat, depending on the age of the animal and the cut are wonderful, and tbh many culinary cultures are awesome at cooking meat, like Argentinian method, and the Japanese's way of cooking kobe meat rocks.

[Gristle]

You know you can Jerk anything.

[Wasabi]

FGood Kobe needs massage first ;) . Thats what Japanese are good at.

[Karmak]

I am getting hungry by just looking at this post.

But you all forgot that we in Belgium have the best food in the world!

Fries anyone? (except draconi ofcourse, i brought cheese for you mate)

[draconi]

Does not compute.

The only redeming factor belgium restaurants have is "The French Finesse combined with German proportions".

Just like the women!!!

/hide from Terah..

[Raithlin]

Just like the women!!!

/hide from Terah..

rofl

so your saying terah isnt an 'epic whore' shes 'an epic, whore'?

[Halitosis]

Food is food is food is food. You get what you paid for and you should try and appreciate the flavours without adding extra ones.

+ Chocolate > all other food (and yes the Belgiums got it right for once)

[Gristle]

Chocolate is for women and dogs tbh.

[Suplicium]

Grist, sorry but chocolate is bad for dog's health

[Gristle]

All the more reason to give it them, I'm a cat person!

[terah or something]

[insert witty and evil message for gristle]

erm and same for raith i guess

too tired to think of something :p

[asool]

All,
It was nice to see I can still prompt some nutty conversation from you lot! Gristle as always is one of the the few who knows what he's talking about. As far as Pasta goes....

http://image.guardian.co.uk/sys-images/Lifeandhealth/Pix/pictures/2006/01/16/spag.jpg

Belgium....moules et frites! Mayonnaise and Beer. No other food that I am aware of.

But enough of this savoury goodness. How about desert. again I got you all licked.This is "Junior's" Cheescake, the best in NYC. It is amazing. So much so, that when LG went to NY a few months ago I made him get some and video it to prove it. Only to be accompanied by coffee....no sauces! It is delicious, Italian Icecream or Belgian chocolate puds won't touch it.

Asool

[Gristle]

Here we must part ways Asool, even if only as far as best dessert in the world.

I think you will find that this is about ALL we can be thankful to the Italians for, the supreme sweet to end all creamy creamy sweets:
