Brit thread.

Sounds like it may resemble something we call Boudoire Gateau:

Build a wall, using Boudoire Fingers, saturated in brandy, as the bricks, and chocolate mousse as the mortar. Finally cover with a thick rendering of whipped cream. Leave overnight to mature...

Drool!

That's exactly it........well, almost. The booze is mixed into the mousse, rather than soaked into the fingers. So damn rich....

*drool*

Hey Pops, do you think should we include that as part of the West Yorks New Year event? :devil:

We might get even more folk cumming (sp?) :rolleyes:

Do we have an ongoing recipe thread? I'd love those chocolate recipes.

My husband likes to put a heavy layer of pepper on potatoes. He'll dash the stuff on until they're grey.

Do you like parsnips over there?

Yup!

Potatoes are different, but aside from them, carrots, swede and parsnips are my favourite roots. Butter is the essential to make all 4 yummy.

In other contexts, brandy, cream and chocolate are the magic extras, but for savouries, Just Add More Butter always works for me. (And not just for roots - on peas and corn too. And for other stuff, make it into a 'white' sauce - but make sure that there's enough butter to make it yellow!)

"Deep fried" is another magic spell...
 
Here's what I like to do with parsnips: cook them soft, and then put them in a food processor with a big lump of butter, some cream, and a few gratings of nutmeg. Then I put them in zucchini boats and run them under the broiler to brown the mashed parsnips a little. My other use for them is one of the vegetables I put with a pot roast. My family usually eats to potatoes and carrots and leaves the parsnips for me.
