	^ love fresh applesauce-- I had relatives in Vermont that had crabapples too but they were too bitter to use when I was there in the summer Simple tonight: rubbed a chicken breast with olive oil, chipotle powder, garlic, s&p, broiled until crispy dark golden brown- makes a nice sauce for rice too

	Applesauce. My brother in law has given me some crabapples from his tree up in the Boundary Waters of northern MN. There must be something in the soil in that area. The apples have more complexity somehow, a slightly more biting acidity or something, beyond just the increased sourness of crabapples. I've experimented a bit with these apples and found by omitting the white sugar and using all brown sugar, the caramelly side effect works well to tone down some of the intense sourness. Then add a bit of cinnamon post cooking if you like that. Tastes great plain, with cottage cheese, or over waffles/pancakes.

	Delicious corned beef & cabbage tonight, it also had potatoes and carrots and Gulden's mustard went beautifully with it. Cherry soda to drink.

	I'd like to think that custard will factor into Dean's vote in the EU membership referendum.

	Yep, it's like the corn syrup scare of 2012, I kept telling my mum "It's just sugar from corn instead of sugarcane", but it was too late, the bad rep had taken (even though I do much prefer regular sugar to corn sweetener).

	^ true, they add some other emulsifiers and thickening agents, the branded stuff I buy to make milkshakes uses vegetable fats, bean gum and guar gum ... of course all those are also know by their E-numbers, which are all perfectly natural products but still manage to send the health-conscious into a flat spin.
	What?

	I see, yeah much of the ice cream here has some egg yolks in it but no one cares because it tastes good. Though I also love a strictly milk or cream/milk blend, I notice the ice cream brands I like tend to not add egg.

	the custard is made with milk already, I guess you could dilute it with more milk to make it go further but it would taste weaker, Custard-based ice creams are a standard method of making ice cream in the UK (something the EU monkey's get hot and bothered about as they contain no cream per sey and we're supposed to call them frozen custards, but to hell with Brussels ) That tub of custard normally retails at just under £2, the same "product" as ice cream retails at £4 - what I bought was reduced to £0.59 a tub.
	What?

	I love good vanilla, that sounds divine-- no milk. just the custard?

	To the opposite extreme I made ice cream the easy way yesterday - the supermarket had two half-litre tubs of quality Madagascan vanilla custard reduced that I promptly purchased. After chilling the ice cream maker over night I tipped the custard into the machine, switched it on and 10 minutes later lovely smooth vanilla ice cream - a litre of quality ice cream to rival Hagen Daz for just over a quid - result!
	What?

	I got a hunk of "Cave-aged Swiss" the other day for about 7 bucks and it's like the size of a friggin memory chip. I mean what's the point, might as well swallow the thing like a pill.
