The sausages are made by a very nice man who sells them at the farmer's market. This weekend I got Rabbit and Wild Mushroom - which were a very dark colour due to the mushrooms -fantastic flavour. And Venison and Red Wine - which were very red inside and super delicious.
That stall is fast becoming my favourite: the venison chorizo, the sea beet, the crazy mushrooms, the amazing sausages - all made by hand (where applicable). I chatted to him about where to get Sea Beet. I want that to be my first trip in the new car :) Can't wait to go foraging!!
I also made a cauliflower cheese - because really what else can you do with a cauliflower? I was niftily upsold it at the market whilst getting some carrots, "Cauli and a cabbage for £1.20?"
Cauliflower cheese? Hmm, not made that before.
"A nice January King?"
I've never had a January King before.
"They look great. Yes please. Very good upsell." Smile.
"Well, there's no good growing it, if you can't sell it!" Job done.
Matt was very nice and said it was delicious but there was only so far he could go with cauliflower. I asked when I should cook with it next: response, "At least six months" :)
It was lovely tho' - bechamel cooked with bay leaf gave a lovely savoury flavour, and mustard is fantastic with cheese. I cooked the cauli for 10 minutes with some lemon juice in the water, so it was nice and white. And not overcooked, thank god. There is no rescuing an overcooked cauliflower : /
