how to make frites -- fry 'em in beef tallow!
The standard in Belgium (lard for steak)
Every supermarket in B and NL carries Blanc de Boeuf/Ossewit (aka beef tallow)

Well it's the 4th, Bill, so we're going to celebrate kicking your type out of our land (that we strong-armed from some other folks) by eating dead animals and blowing up the sky.
Pork ribs and I believe my mom's green bean, potato, tomato salad are on the docket here. Not sure what I'll be tasked to help with: we've got the whole family getting together so it'll be fun to see everyone.

Some folks flogg it for a buck on the 3dAh yes, happy good riddance day
Funny I thought the Brits just tired of the expense and foolishness. The idea that we kicked their b... was behind our invading the north of the border colonies. Didn't fare too well. Had to repaint the Presidents residence after the Brits paid him a visit.
As to food I got in my lamb order. Got belly to make pseudo bacon and liver for pate. Just fried up a bit and used the old fashioned meat chopper to blend it with the butter, spices and plant stuff. Very mild and I think tasty. Will serve at a picnic tomorrow and see what others think.
Next week will start on curing a belly piece.

In Edinburgh -- they know how to make frites -- fry 'em in beef tallow!

The best chips I had in Britain were in the Black Country Living Museum from their 1930s Chip Shop which are fried traditionally in beef drippings/tallow/lard.
They filmed Peaky Blinders ( Peaky Blinders (TV series - Wikipedia) there but unfortunately the chippie is behind the pay barrier so access would cost £15 per year.
Anyway, it's good to know that traditional British chips are not suitable for me.
Yummo, these chips and fish were fried in beef tallow!

For those who understand Jamaican English: my food preference is summed up rather well in this song by Macka B:

Another trip where I had to bypass a visit with SY. Chicken feet with Chinese medicine, there are no words for how fine this is. The pig stomach with 5 spice is actually properly translated as chitterlings and not Cal's uterus still fine.

Why should uterus be a wrong translation?
The chinese stall at the market here does sell uterus and it is clearly just that.
Or did I get you wrong?
No I was just saying sometimes it is all sold as pig stomach.
Here, uterus often gets sold as 'intestine'. Intestine looks a lot like the bowl you have on the right. Hard to tell from this angle. So yes, chitterlings.
I notice your chicken feet were not fried first. Hard to find that dish around here unless you get the deboned pre-boiled, unflavoured feet.
Either way, glad you enjoyed them. Too bad about SY.

Oh OK that way around. Wasn't sure.
I miss SY's contributions here, hope he is fine!

I bought two packs of (biodynamic) raspberries from a local farm earlier. One pack (225 grams) was used for 'marängsviss' (meringues, wwhipped cream and chocolate sauce) but I switched the chocosauce for the mashed raspberries. A disappintment.
Yesterday I made raspberry mousse of the other pack (gelatine, suger, raspberries and FAT cream). YUMMI!
