Tzatziki for another ranga.
It’s easy for us chefs to think that a recipe like this is simple… second nature… like talking or not soiling your bed. But the fact is it may just be seasoned yoghurt with cucumber mixed through it to us, but for someone who hasn’t made it before it is as foreign as a red…

Anchovy and caper salsa… And thanks Pauly. Thanks for the cheer.
Pauly from Paul’s Caul (and various other notoriety) is a great friend and means many other things to me then just cheap “thrills” to say the least, but today I just wanna say thanks to him for the laughs he brings to my day when he sends me a new post. My day usually isn’t…
