Now Im also fantasising about Coq u vin with good wine and Black Forest Gateau with bitter cherries, both labour intensive, expensive, spectacular.
After the bland foods of my childhood, served up by a resentful housewife type parent, the magnificence of Seventies food was a revelation.
T bone steak! juicy burgers with relishes! Scampi and chips in a basket!
Avocado Pears! Chicken midweek! (occasionally) sweet potatoes!
these all once I had left home, of course, monotony ended.
There are still foods I will not eat, wouldn’t consider them,
does anyone else shudder at some of the awful foods we were fed?
except for Vesta Beef Curry and Chow Mein of course
