Churchill Rd Raclette - Delendale Creamery For this one I have one clear instruction before we begin. Pick up the cheese, step away from the cheese-board, and get thee to the kitchen. This is a cheese that needs - possibly even demands - some heat. Now I know the kitchen is a bit of a foreign place for the cheese-lover - I mean what use is there of fry-pans or cook-pots? Bear with me though, this journey is worth it. Before we begin, I'm going to take you on a small flight of fancy. Imagine, if you will, that an honest English Cheddar decided to take a holiday on the Continent, and found itself in Switzerland. Maybe seeking some great waterfall to encounter a perilous foe, it instead meets a sweet and charming Emmental. Romance blossoms, the Cheddar settles - foe forgotten, and the two have a child. Roll forward a dozen years and a few more, and this is Raclette. The bitter-edged teenager child - probably miffed that Cheddar failed to find and defeat that foe. Raclette is a cheese...
I was going to say: Nothing quite brings out the kook like a burra
ReplyDeleteThis brought on by a co-worker discussing the eccentric uncle-in-law who has found AN AMAZING LINK BETWEEN THE WRITING OF TWO ANCIENT CULTURES! (Separated by about 5000km and 2000 years...) And is now being paranoid about his research being stolen by a professor in the field who thought that his research 'lacked rigor'.
ReplyDeleteI heartily recommend http://skepticalhumanities.com/ which has an ongoing series on crank fringe linguistics.
