Helped Dave out with a fondue themed dinner party last night – a good night with some fun meals. Starter was roasted camembert cheese with savoury dips, main was pork stew, and dessert was a chocolate fondue (white chocolate in one pot, a milk choc/maple syrup mix in the other).
Good times were had and the worst part – the clean-up job – went surprisingly well, but I think I’m going to have to introduce a new rule for certain attendees.
The proposed rule:
The next person who sets the cutlery on fire is getting set on fire.
Now if you excuse me, I’ve got to go back to scraping char off fondue forks.
Fire, WOOOOOOOOOO. I want you to burn. I solemnly swear i was up to no good, and that i wont do it again.
You’re pyromania is really showing lately. :P
It’s coming up to bonfire night, I think I need to see something large on fire once a year or i’ll start setting forks on fire. I might make a creme brulee for this weeks recipe so i can set it on fire
Tip for cleaning char off the forks (if you’re already done, perhaps for the next time ;)) : try using coca cola! in Holland we don’t only drink it, but also use it for cleaning rust off some stuff. (we don’t drink the coke we cleaned rust with ;)) Char and rust are both oxides, so it’d probably work.
This is such a fantastic tip!:D I’m going to have to try this, I still haven’t gotten around to de-charring the forks.
You’d still have to scrub a bit, though I wouldn’t use anything too hard or sharp, it could scratch’em up… I’d advise a firm brush, but the hairs in it should be still bendable. probably an ordinary dishwashing brush’d do. :).
Or you could give the fork to me and ill char the whole thing!
It’s your funeral… oh, wait, it’d be a cremation! *smirks devilish and points at original post*
Hahaha, it definitely would be.
No offence ofourse ;p
Im a lover not a fighter, Emma could destroy me
3 comments on that.
1. I trust Emma to have manners, so I’m sure she wouldn’t actually kill you. (I don’t know her personally, so i don’t know if she’d actually hurt you…)
2. She’d only do it if you set the cutlery on fire again, so it’s actually up to you to decide whether she’ll destroy you, really.
3. From what I can see now, I believe you’re friends. So she probably won’t kill you/finish you off.
