Duly noted
I am leaning towards the Lamb Spiedini or the Wild Boar Sausages, anyway.

I'm worried now.
Because I ate that and thought it was good.

I may as well just invite Jamie round to jizz down my throat then.

Although
he'd probably send one of those ASBO kids to do it anyway.

It was very nice.
I have always enjoyed well-seasoned tan-coloured mince. My great grandma made it a lot.
It's just if someone is expecting a bolognese sauce they might be a little surprised.

I imagine what you get is a proper bolognese sauce, then.
it's not supposed to have tomatoes in it.

Yes it is. Don't start that nonsense.
I know too many italian people.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 9:14, Reply)

I'm not starting that "nonsense"
it genuinely isn't. It's a slow-cooked meat ragu with a small quantity (like a couple of tablespoons) of tomato puree for colour and richness only. Even Wikipedia accepts that.

I accept everything you say, and you just mentioned tomato purée.
That contains tomatoes.
Case closed.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 9:18, Reply)

"tomatoes" was what I said, not puree.
Plus, it's a tiny amount and it's only to change the colour.

Soffritto, veal, pork, stock, wine, maybe milk. herbs and seasoning and a tiny bit of puree to colour it.

Where did I say it should be chock full of tomatoes?
I said it's red and they put more than a tiny bit, because they like it coloured.
ALSO, TOMATO PURÉE CONTAINS TOMATO. That makes meals with puree inside them meals that contain tomato.

thai fish sauce contains anchovies
I suspect you'd get fairly short shrift suggesting that one of the ingredients of thai green curry was anchovies.

If I'd have meant it had nothing tomato-based in it I'd have said "no tomato" not "no tomatoes".

Which, I grant you, is a very subtle difference, and easily missed, but I'm having a cunt of a week so I'm going to be pointlessly belligerent about it.

I do think
that anyone with a fish or tomato allergy would disagree with this though.

But as you say, it's a fine distinction.

This is why I love B3ta. Where else could I be discussing what constitutes something having tomatoes in it at 9.38 on a Thursday morning?

Aw, they don't bother me.+
Peanut allergy sufferers can fuck off though. Making me eat pretzels instead of nuts on planes just because their mothers didn't eat any peanuts during pregnency because they are scared of everything The Daily Mail tells them to be scared of.

Oh
I stand corrected. I thought you meant tomato of any description.

I really like the word 'ragu'

What?
It bloody should! It shouldn't have a lot of the shit we put in it, but it should definitely have tomato.

Apparently it also should have milk, mind you, which makes my stomach turn a little.
( scarpe We Stole Bikes, Thu 8 Sep 2011, 9:15, Reply)

it has a small amount of tomato puree in for colour
it has no tomatoes in it. Trust me on this.

It's become so bastardised away from Bologna that, yeah, it pretty much always does have tomoatoes in. I'm not getting food Nazi, I don't care, it tastes good either way, but if the fat-tounged monkey makes it in the traditional way in his restaurant I'm afraid he is right

I saw that above.
Crossed wires (or a slightly different definition of what constitutes having tomatoes in it, I guess).
