What the f uck are you having for Dinner thread..

So this is what I'm working with. £1.29 bargain.

 

I would never eat broad beans, much the same as i cannot stand olives unless compressed into oil.

 

Decent bit of bacon for the price

 

You cant call it living there when its 2 days - thats visiting for the weekend.

 

Trimmed up now ready to go.

Cabonara maybe or a spicy tomato sauce for the little bits? Something long and slow for the larger pieces?

 

so what about the pile on the right?

 

On the right is going into a stew tomorrow, long slow cook.

Been prepping for tonight.

 

I love you show the prepping of your fresh stuff. Pretty good mate, and always nice to see fresh ingredients used.

 

ps. forgot to say, good to see you are purchasing olive oil in dark glass bottles, it is the only way it should be packaged.

 

Didn’t think you were meant to cook with extra virgin olive oil.

 

Yeah. You can drizzle it over stuff aswell but cooking is fine.

 

I always cook with it and the smoking points are all bolloxs. However, I only use good quality olive oil and it should never be in a plastic bottle.

 

Thought it goes toxic when heated up? Or is that just frying?

 

This man knows ^^^

 

Olive oil is for cooking. Extra virgin isn’t I always thought.

 

You would have to take it above at least 205 degrees.

 

From google save me writing war & peace;

Quality extra virgin olive oil is an especially healthy fat that retains its beneficial qualities during cooking. ... However, olive oil is quite resistant to heat and doesn't oxidize or go rancid during cooking. Not only is it an excellent cooking oil, but it is also one of the healthiest.

 

I've always cooked with it and I'm still alive and NEVER had a bad experience with it.

 

It's not good with high heat but great for frying veg, meat and fish.

 

I wouldn't use it in a fryer or anything such as that, generally it would be for the same dishes as you, cooked at around 190-200 degrees.
