@crucial we had salt beef a couple of weeks ago - now I'm going to have to order more damn you! I can't abide a bagel though.
Haven't been lucky enough to try French Dip anywhere yet, but hanging out to.
Bagels can vary a lot. Try the ones from the Brick Lane Beigel place. Original set up from the days it was the Jewish quarter. Much more like a bun and very different to the tough supermarket ones.
5 squid for a bun smeared with mustard filled with a slab of salt beef and a slice of pickle. -

@crucial that sounds like it should be planned into a small reward trip after I travel to London Bridge for my second jab.
London Bridge? Maybe a duck confit sandwich from borough Market then.

@crucial It's not a burger if you can't pick it up and eat it with your hands.
That just looks like an exercise in foppery to me. The constituent parts are fine. Lovz me some fried buttermilk chicken but it's absurd as a burger.
On your bagels. Hard and chewy is not what a bagel should be. I made some once but the effort / reward ratio was outrageous.

Ha. I know what you mean about the burger. That is their only double stack one though and I think if you order something like that you know that it's not going to be a one hander while driving.
Then again, I remember the old 'Aucklander' from the White Lady when it used to park in Shortland St in the 80s. Would have stood 10 inches high and had to be eaten sideways.Re Bagels I find them fairly easy to make. Only hassle is being a little more hands on.I was given some bagel mould things which are actually really handy. Once you shape the dough, let it rise on these then dip the whole thing into the water at the boiling stage. Lift out, then into the oven.

@crucial I think I kneaded too long or something. Plus the recipe I followed (while back) called for steaming rather than boiling. I might try again as I have a salmon I've smoked so there's an incentive straight away.
My plan is actually to get into this sort of things more when I retire as there is only so much time available and I like to make sausages and pates etc as well. Always more projects than time available.

That is looking like an expensive fish. Baked in the oven?
It’s not cheap at about £30 a kilo! We source from Pesky Fish, so delivered within 36 hours of catch.
Baked in fan oven at 200 degrees for just over half an hour.

@pakman play me music and cook for me!
I love fish and seafood as a whole, could easily be a pescatarian methinks.
And you know what they say, if it swims it slims!
Growing up in NZ, am bit of a stickler for only very fresh fish.Had great hake and greens at pub for lunch.
But meat will always be my first love!

RIP Herbert.
Looks awesome. How did it taste?
Flesh was just right: fairly firm and full of flavour! Only issue was that it was a tad small for four of us.
