Oh, and...
May. 30th, 2003 10:12 amSince you lot seem to be a mine of culinary information, here's another one:
What does one do with anchovies ? It came as a bit of a surprise to me a while back to discover I like them - marinated in oil and various other Mediterranean things, they bear no resemblance to the nasty, dried up cadavers one encounters on pizzas.
I usually just eat them with bread, or I suppose you could include them in antipasti. Last night I experimentally ate some with a leek and lemon risotto, and... well. It was edible, and I'm not dead. But it didn't really work, and I won't be repeating the exercise.
The anchovies have rather a sharp taste, and I can't really think of things that they'd go well with. Anyone got any suggestions ?

Pizzas and Anchovies
Date: 2003-05-30 06:31 am (UTC)We were intrigued by the concept of a vegetarian anchovy....
The service was also dire (despite the fact the place was half empty)
Needless to say we swapped allegiance to Pizza Piazza on all subsequent visits to Farnham for pizza...
