Chop logic Argue in a tiresomely pedantic way; quibble.

Chop logic Argue in a tiresomely pedantic way; quibble.
Mid 16th century: from a dialect use of chop meaning 'bandy words'
What do you use for Chopping / Cutting ?

My work station Beech hand made chopping board.

My most worked ones out of a few
"Food hygienists do not recommend the use of wood boards as it is traditionally thought that the porous nature of wood harbours bacteria which can potentially contaminate food."
They instead recommend plastic boards for all food preparation.
(Yuk)
However, many refute this claim.( and Me)
It is believed that the fibres in the wood, particularly in end grain, self heal therefore reducing the gouges in the wood for bacteria to enter.
It is also believed that wood has antimicrobial properties and enzymes that make for an inhospitable environment for bacteria to grow.
This belief was supported by research carried out by Cliver and Kaspari (1994) (The antimicrobial properties of wood) published in the Journal of Food Protection and supported by the World Health Organisation.
Plastic and wood boards were inoculated with e.coli (including 0157),salmonella and liseteria.
Wood was found to have 98-99% less bacteria following this than plastic.
Phew!
Aside from the knife protecting properties and hygiene benefits of wood boards, they really can be a beautiful addition to a domestic kitchen, especially end grain.
If cared for correctly will last a lifetime and probably beyond to pass down the generations.

Buck Moon, Thunder Moon or Hay Moon
How i feel in my defence
At this time of year, buck deer begin to grow velvety antlers, while farmers are struggling to put hay in their barns amid the summer season’s frequent thunder showers.

Singapore Sling Shots
I have no idea which Collection to put this in! Since it's made using Singapore Sling, I've gone for the South East Asian Collection. Is it a dessert? Or is it an amuse-bouche?
Technically, these guys should be called Singapore Sling Jelly or Jell-O Shots but I think Singapore Sling Shots has a better ring to it, don’t you?
Just like regular jelly shots, alcoholic ones are fairly easy to master, a case of making up your desired cocktail, mixing it with some gelatine, vegetarian alternative or some warmed up ready made jelly.
There is no end to what you can create; all you need to figure out is the gelatine to liquid ratio (always given at the back of the packet) and make up your cocktail accordingly. And dissolving the gelatine is so easily done in the microwave, simplifying the whole process.

are not worth a gooseberry

Gooseberries just in season picked in Cornwall at the weekend not many but enough for
Gooseberry and Sage sauce
With their fragrant acidity, gooseberries make a great sauce for meat – try this with roast pork or pork chops.
1/2 lb gooseberries, topped and tailed
2 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp finely chopped sage
drop of water
Bring to a simmer and cook gently, stirring from time to time, for 10-15 minutes
Now just got to find some fresh Sage .
These characterful berries have a long association with
British cooking
Way back in the 1600s, herbalist Nicholas Culpeper talked of them being scalded, baked or eaten raw; there are recipes for them in Hannah Glasse's Art Of Cookery (1747), in Eliza Acton's Modern Cookery (1845) and Mrs Beeton's Book Of Household Management (1861).
Gooseberry wine,
gooseberry sauce,
gooseberry pudding,
gooseberry jam and jelly
These simple dishes are gifts from a time when richness of flavour was appreciated as much as sweetness.

Bath Gin of a Different Persuasion

Bath Gin of a Different Persuasion
So how does one create the recipe for a singular and exclusive spirit like Bath Gin?
It was up to the expert mixologists to find the most distinctive ingredients they could, and throw themselves into the task of creating something modern, fresh and moreish.
The result?
A drink that is as exceptional and engaging as Jane Austen herself, using two unique combined ingredients of
Wormwood and Kaffir lime leaves.
