Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

I buy it from a local producer. Tastes like a solid ricotta. Not rubbery at all.. I cube it and add it to salad.

Depends what long white root Geordie actually saw. There was a smiley face here but it didn't come out quite right.

Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

Could be radice amara. It's a type of chicory root, I think. Boiled or roasted after removing the bitterer core. Still don't like it.

Re: Any source for these goodies?

Mike, you can get the Twinnings ginger and lemon here. Pampadour also do one, but I've never tried it. I don't use sesame oil, try the ethnic shops for it.

Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

I find Asiago, although softer, to be a good substitute. I prefer the kind with a black rind as it has more flavour. Piave does the job, too, but I'm guessing that it might not be available...

True, you need to get friendly with a butcher. Our one in Turin will get you anything. OH'S uncle buys belly of pork Asti way to make his own copatta.

Tried them at Xmas. They were handing them out in town. Haven't seen them in the shops yet though, but maybe that's for the better. :lol:

They decided that there wasn't a market for their product. :lol: Primary is planning on opening this year. If they succeed, wonder if the prices will differ. :unsure:

Lorna, we have 2! Almost three. If you ever go to the Corte Venete it's not far from there, but if you do go there, they sell cheddar. :)

Out of curiosity, I bought the Esselunga slices. The actual weren't that bad. 10 slices - €1.99.

I'm not that keen on it because it contains soya flour which I don't like, but it's the toast and sarnie bread here too. :)

Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

You'll need a card to get in because it's wholesale. If you don't have one, ask around. Someone will have it. We can't get bacon in Esselunga/Lidl here, but Metro sells a kilo back of Tulip for...

I rest my case.:rofl: That's happened to me, too. :( Rana was one of OH's clients. They use a gas as a preservative. If I remember, similar to the one used in bag salads. My neighbour has just...

I have and do use ready-made pastry here. And no, I'd never attempt filo! :ohmy: I use other ready-made's more if they were the same quality as the UK. I use it as little as possible here not because...

Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

I've seen it in frozen, Patty. Pasta Fillo. Never used it though.
