The " Honey I'm home and I'm bloody starving , what's for dinner " Thread.

Fish Mornay would have a cheese sauce I imagine.

True. Although I am not a big lover of that particular dish.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Fish goes much better with white wine and cream based sauces than thick cheesy sauces. Or a really good hollandaise base which can be turned to just about any number of different individual sauces by adding different ingredients.

The only other seafood cheese combo I can think of is lobster thermidor.

 

[leedswolf]

I suppose it's the type of cheese used too. A lot of cheeses would be too overpowering.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Fish is very delicate and so you wouldn't want to sling a gorgonzola at it.

Fish and cheese? A strange combination.

Fish goes with cheese, although I agree its strange to have them together, on a sandwich, piled high with chips and coleslaw,was nice though. Although I have never managed a full one at Primanti's.

Trying out the ' Hunan Delight ' from the new Chinese in New Kensington.

Every time I read this, I worry PPB has turned cannibal.... :yikes:

Very much so. I think that of many sauces on a number of dishes which can be overpowering.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Although making a great sauce is a hugely skillful thing, a lot of people forget that a sauce is effectively window dressing for the star of the show on the plate.

Fear not Jellybean, although some people get on me tits, I would never eat them! It was sea scallops, prawns, mushrooms, carrots, broccoli, swow peas done in the chefs sauce. Very nice it was

gorgonzola

Even reading that word makes me feel queasy. Easily the food I detest the most.

I love it. Gorgonzola sandwiches, on crusty bread. Lovely.

Someone once made me a gorgonzola sandwich. It was like I was eating the semi-solidified puss from the devil's zits. Fucking horrible stuff.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I wouldn't normally use gorgonzola very much. Much prefer Stilton or Rocquefort, especially for sauces.

Gorgonzola with pears, sliced apple and grapes, yum.

Gorgonzola with pears, sliced apple and grapes, yum.

Yes please!

That's like eating a succulent beef wellington from a muddy puddle.

Talking things Beef Fillet, you could actually make a creamy gorgonzola sauce and pour it over a fillet steak in theory. Might be a little too robust for fillet, so I would probably choose a more flavoursome steak, maybe a ribeye.

Do you like any blue cheese?

Lovely Paddy.

Good luck with the giving up on the fags btw. Keep it up. Just think, all these foods will taste even more delish now you have your buds back

I like a bit of gorgonzola with a strong dark beer. Something with a bit of fruitiness to it.
