Interesting you use Beer, I have only ever used white wine or cider with Rabbit ? - any particular Beer ? IPA ?

An Ossian golden ale, works very well, I’ve found, but like yourself I’ve used both white wine and cider in the past. The sauce I intentionally make a decent volume of, as it’s absolutely lovely once seived and creamed (-again!) on the fourth day, the first day being a resting/maturing day, days 2 & 3 being the days we eat the rabbit joints, etc.

I do the same thing with the cider and cream sauce I make for rabbit. I find it's great with pasta, or served with steak/pork/chicken.

And I've been known to make a fair dent in a baguette with it, too 😳🤭

Was that picture taken today? Looks like you have quite a lot of snow :oops:
 
I have had a recipe for making pasties using wraps for some time. Last week, we had some spare wraps so I boiled some spuds, fired an onion then added the spuds and corned beef and filled the wraps. Using egg wash on the edges, sealed them and then did a wash over the whole thing.

My daughter in Munich now swears by using avocado oil as she can get a higher heat without burning in a pan.
My next project is to make a tandoor, the vermiculite and steel dustbin I bought a few years ago. Now I need to source the plant pots.
This is a cheap meal with a mug of tea £7 in a Folkstone pie & mash café but it is a London dish. Pie & mash I first tried when going with an old GF back in the 1970s as she was from Fulham.
Here is a pie & mash shop in London.
 
Yesterday I baked myself a vanilla quark cheesecake IMG_1561.webp
Naturally it was accompanied by some delicious coffee

Made Basque cheesecake once and thought I messed it up til I had it in a Spanish restaurant. Vanilla would be nicer
Yes, it was very tasty ( and still is ) seeing as the recipe yielded nigh on 2kg of vanilla goodness. It’s actually quite a healthy cake, not heavy and not much fat or sugar, its a bit like the 7x57 Mauser - slimline but punches well above its weight class 😃 The original recipe called for lemon zest, but I went for the classic German vanillin Käsekuchen as my girlfriend hates cake with lemon in it.
I will have to look up a recipe for a Basque cheesecake now , I’m intrigued to know what made it taste so wrong 😂.
Kindest regards, Olaf

Ah, i see, I’ve just looked it up and it’s supposed to have a nearly burned exterior ….. was yours bitter and all dry and powdery on the top ? Is that what you didn’t like? I can very well imagine that’s a bit of an acquired taste.
Kindest regards, Olaf
