I’ve been messing about with a honey and mustard salad dressing this evening - sticky fingers, but fun - and I think I have it the way I like it.
I’ll post it here in case you want it. Otherwise, it’ll save me losing the recipe and having to go through the rigmarole again

Matt:
Euro vote ends GM food ban. The European parliament passes controversial laws that in effect lift a ban on genetically modified foods. [BBC News | World | UK Edition]
Oh crap. The huge multinationals win again, presumably many MEP’s pockets have been well lined over this one.
What I don’t understand is how they get away [...]

It’s been another balmy day here in Worthing. Time to unpack the shiny new portable barbecue we bought last week and head across the road to the beach to watch the sun go down and the dogs gambolling in the shallows.
Sounds kinda nice, doesn’t it?
With the chilled bottle of Viognier, marinated jerk chicken and herb [...]

Rusty writes about Sourdough from scratch:

This is one of those things I keep coming back to.
Jamie Oliver has his foolproof way in one of his Naked Chef books; Jeffrey Steingarten devotes a whole chapter to it in his great book, The Man Who Ate Everything. And now Rusty.
I’m going to have [...]

As we do most weeks, Mark Pruul and I met for our Wednesday afternoon board meeting in central London.
There was something even more important on the agenda than the MarkOne Creative Consultants’ brochure copy - we were going for a curry afterwards.
We’d met in the Charing Cross Hotel, and didn’t have a clue where we’d [...]

This is turning into my food blog…
I have a general rule that traditional things are best in the kitchen. Good knives, heavy saucepans, and so on. I’m not into gadgets.
So why are bread boards so awful? You know the type. Round and not large enough to accommodate most rectangular - or oval - loaves. But, [...]

This is a bit of a puzzle.
I bought some kaffir limes (the fruit, not the leaves) at the local Chinese grocery recently, and used them last night in a king prawn-based stir fry - kind of Thai, but with a pile of ginger instead of the chillies. My wife isn’t a fan of chillies.
The aroma [...]

It warns me that my pack of King Prawns contains shellfish.
Do they have any that don’t? Maybe I shouldn’t ask!

Doc points out some frightening food!
The Doc Searls Weblog : Friday, April 11, 2003
There’s a really good secondhand bookshop not far from here, with shelves of books of this kind of recipe. I was tempted - for a millisecond.
I always wonder what my favourite cookbooks will look like in 30 years’ time.

I had some Yo Sushi sushi from Sainsbury’s for lunch today. It was surprisingly good (as was some from Marks & Spencer the other week).
It’s some time since I made my own (about 10 years, I’d guess). But kuro5hin.org comes to the rescue.
