Mmmmmm
Balsamic Vinegar, salty salt and mayonaisse

As opposed to non salty salt?

(PsychoChomp, Mon 8 Feb 2010, 15:01, Reply)

Yup
Avoid the non salty salt. It's like the not-very-vingerary- vinegar
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Mon 8 Feb 2010, 15:05, Reply)

I gave up salt years ago.
Pepper is good though. I recently bought a pepper grinder, and no longer rely on the pre ground stuff. That's for the chavs I'm afraid ;)

Try sea salt, not as bad for you innit
EDIT: It appears this is at best unfounded and at worst not true, my apologies

I don't miss it at all now.
It's annoying when I cook for someone, and the first thing they do is cover the food in a shitload of salt.

What a difference
a grinder makes compared to pre-ground! Can barely live without it now.

When we do free chips we refuse to also give sauce
Not my doing, the landlady.
Staff get sauce.

Depends on the mood.
- A Nice strong vinigar with sea salt
- Sweet Chilli mixed with Mayo
- Mustard and Ketchup

There is a new season of the Redtooth Poker Leuge going on downstairs today and SF is running it for this one, so The Gonz Household is going to go and join him. I don't really play poker, but it seems like a laugh.

Sweet Chilli Mayo is fucking brill.
One of my favourite culinary discoveries of the last few years.

I had some the otehr day and it was rank

creamy and sweet and chilli just didn't work for me, tasted like a chinaman's spunk

Having never tasted Chinese jizz...

Come on over

Broon sauce
I miss Scottish chippies :(

Yesyesyyesy
Well I don't get that up here in the far North, but in my first times in Edinburgh and Aberdeen I recall...

"Sawt an sawce mate?"
Er... yes? (expecting tomato sauce)

He then proceeds to lash a thin brown liquid all over my supper. I was initially horrified but have grown to love the famous chippy sauce.
( whenanimalsattackhumans clad in global hypercolour, Mon 8 Feb 2010, 15:13, Reply)

Thin's the word
The cheap stuff you get in the chippy tastes different to something like HP sauce but nicer for it. And you get a confused look if you ask for a Fish Supper.

Don't you need a Bullet proof vest in there nowadays?
Or is stab-proof sufficient?
( SpikeyPickle wishes he was mabazaritchie, Mon 8 Feb 2010, 15:14, Reply)

Nah, it's always been violence free, as far as I know.
Been going over 10 years, hardly ever seen any trouble.
(Bear Pookie The Frankly Challenged. Halloween is coming to town., Mon 8 Feb 2010, 15:16, Reply)

Ahhhhh,
I haven't been there for about 12 years. My sister used to live on the Castle Irwell studenty bit so we used to go in occasionly.

It always seemed a bit dodgy to me, although that may just be hazy memories.

I recently realised that I don't really like chips
Chip shops smell lovely but I am always disappointed when I buy some. I don't really want to eat a big bag of seasoned potato, it seems.
