[OT] Chorizo / Salami - addictive?

Hmm that's a matter for debate. Since the tea needs to have enough heat to melt the biscuit a bit, I would angle for less. Then again I prefer less milk anyway. But that's a whole nother conversation.

Last time i was in Barcelona i was hanging out in this great Tapas Bar like, every friggin night...

The only thing that worries me be it chorizo or proscuitto is that is being bathed in nicotine while hanging in the Tapas bar... Maybe the nicotine enhances the flavour... Anyway staring tomorrow for 21 days I start a detox diet... No coffee, alcohol, sugar, red meat, gluten/wheat, fruit, pastries... This is gonna be tough..

Fish, chicken, veggies, brown rice, eggs, yogurt (goat)...

So far consumed today..

Green tea
Raw almonds
Banana Smoothie with yogurt , soy milk, cinnamon
Mashed sardines on brown rice crackers
Corn tortillas with refried beans, sheepmilk cheese, onion, and yogurt

Bit of a headache prolly due to no coffee... Doing this to help out the wife... I can eat bananas but that's it for fruit..

sure you can live longer, but why?

edit: just to be sure that I'm understood. I think it's great that you're undertaking this, and wish you well. Just thinking out loud and being silly.
Hope it does well, keep us up to date how it goes.

I have only recently discovered the joys of REAL parmesan

all my life I've been subjected to the mas produced vomit cheese of supermarkets, then I bought a block of real parmesan and couldnt believe my taste buds

for those who havent tried it, I implore you to go out at once and partake in a culinary experience that beggars belief

addictive - oh very much so. if I don't get a regular fix I start clucking like a good'un.

culinary tip - when I was a kid my father who was Hungarian used to get this awesome Hungarian sausage called guylai (pronounced like july but with the stress on the first syllable). Sometimes he ate it cold, but more often he would stick the whole thing in boiling water for 5 to 10 minutes, it reeally brought out the flavour. Guylai is kind of hard to get and rather expensive, but I discovered if you do the same thing with chorizo it really improves the flavour.

cheers

Good Idea!
Germany is very heavy on the sausage side of life... My indigenous sausage fav of the moment is "knipp", its a litle bit like haggis but not in a goat intestine, its a smoother one and smaller. There is a fair amount of blood (pig) inside to make it even uglier.
Taste like heaven, i`ll try it with putting it into boiling water.

yummy,
