Well Chris, you're right: Nigella's Basque Burnt Cheesecake is so good, it can easily delight in its perfect, blissful "solitude".

She’s taking a liberty calling it Basque, though, when it hasn’t got any cod in it.

Cod Jan 27, 2021

You never know, Chris. Chefs are annoyingly notorious for innovation, desperate to stand out from the crowd, as anybody who's translated any foodie stuff in the last few years will be aware.

Dandelion and walnut sauce with roast sea bream? Why not? Broccoli and Tabasco ice cream? Bring it on. So burnt cheese 'n' cod cake might be a possibility.

Nigella?

She's already got a recipe for spaghetti with marmite, surprisingly tasty and with lot of umami flavour, and she occasionally grates cheese on fish-based pasta sauces, a huge no-no in Italian cuisine.
But I love her for this. Whatever enrages the "My momma cooks-a best-a" brigade, is fine by me.

Marmite Jan 27, 2021

Marmite goes with everything. Even with Jamie Oliver's chorizo paella. But as I remember, it's best on buttered toast when you stagger in from wherever in the wee hours.

... oh, I'm sorry, the title was a typo, and so was all this. Not a necropost, you understand. Just a slip of the finger on the keyboard here. A couple of slips. Two or three. Maybe four or five ...
