Garlic?
Bad?
'
Do we live on the same planet? 'Cause I don't think so. Garlic is so delicious I could eat it with everything that isn't sweet. (I also happen to have some garlic sauce, and could probably make Thousand Island dressing out of ketchup, mayo and mustard...Apparently it has a name now. Didn't know that.)
(well, I guess there's one more thing to add to whatever salad I end up preparing tomorrow. Didn't find any interesting stuff at the store for one today.)

Actually, garlic can be good with sweets, too. I recommend making a sauce with garlic, lemon, chili, ginger, and honey. Deliciously sweet, goes well with chicken. Also you can make antibiotic cough drops out of it. I made a batch of these a few years ago and they work great and taste awesome, though they do destroy your breath.

I've got my April fool's day prank ready now: give friend recipe for awesome fried gnocchi and insist on friend making them that day.

Apparently, drinking milk after eating garlic helps neutralize the deathbreath. My tests are mildly optimistic as to that working.

Eating fresh parsley helps a lot, too. That's why so many restaurants use parsley as a garnish. The problem is that the stinky chemical actually gets into your blood and comes out from your lungs, not your stomach, so you have to neutralize it chemically. Breath mints are powerless against garlic!

On the sausage making front:

Spoiler: Through a bad camera, darkly (click to show/hide)

That's them, raw. A few are a bit wonky from where the sausage skins didn't feed well off the funnel due to slippy hands.

Started cooking them and I rolled the 'breaks' - whatever that bit is called - too tightly, I think. The sausagemeat has poked out the ends of a few of them.

In them is just pork shoulder, onion, sage, salt, and rice - no gluten as one of the people eating them is a celiac, and I'd rather not poison them. So if anyone has ideas on what I should put in the next batch, let me hear them, and if they're not too outlandish I might try them.

Next time I'd going to have venison mixed with the pork as well. Venison might be too strong by itself, so I'll have a mixture.

Those look really nice. I can sympathise on the celiac side - my sister may or may not be. She really rolled badly on the gene lottery - celiac and diabetes. At least she's not also lactose intolerant!

Clearly, you should pretend ground mints are cocaine.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?

Lung inflammation potentially followed by death from sepsis.

You should make knockwurst.

By the way, friends, I've been deported from Prague and am hanging out in Scotland until they let me go back (up to 3 months). Any advice on food here? There is certainly a lot of fried, um, everything. Anything else I should watch for and enjoy? I have access to quite a nice kitchen at my friend's apartment where I'm staying, so I can cook. What can I get here that I won't be able to get when I get back home?

Haggis? Also, sorry to hear that, Sappho.

[GiglameshDespair]

Knockwurst? Not heard of that before.

Deep fried Mars bar?

[Helgoland]

Tastes exactly like it sounds: Like a happy and fulfilled life that's cut short by a major heart attack at age 35. Try it, you'll like it.

Throw some blood in your next batch of sausages. Good stuff. Oooh, or brain.

I heard young innocent mundane souls taste delicious when minced and added to sausages.
