Newenglandah, don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it. Great if anything like pork brains. Growing up on the farm, the next morning after dressing out a fresh pig, we always had scrambled eggs with fried pork brains mixed in.
When I had occasion to travel for my company, I always made it a point to go out at least one evening and dine on something I had never had before. Discovered some great (and some bad) foods that way, some of which I would have not tasted if I had held off because of what it was.
Dahawk, to me it is more like “knocking the sound of it”. As long as the name bothers me, I can knock it. Then again, I am not the adventurous type when it comes to my taste buds. :^)
Lonewolf, I was the same way until years ago, at the race track with a group of buddies. We had an agreement that the big winner for the day would have to pay for dinner that evening. Well, my horses came in and I was up a couple of thou. I had just enough celebratory drinks that evening that they talked me into trying a dozen raw oysters. They were great. Since then, I have never turned down at least a taste of a legitimate dish based on it’s name, looks, or ingredients. I did pass on the ones that didn’t smell to suit me.
Alligator tail, tar tar, mountain oysters, etc. all good stuff.
Didn’t much care for a Greek dish made with grape leaves, too bitter.

I never did like lamb.

It sounds like a waste of thyme.

Do the Brits boil lamb to death like they do beef?

That arm is the most I’ve seen of Flo’s Mum.

Don’t know. I do know that when friends from UK visit, they LOVE our steaks.

Obliterating the taste of lamb is why mint jelly was invented.

I suprise Flo’s mum gave the receipe to Andy and not direct to Flo herself. I also concure I have never seen Flo’s mum.

Andy hates his mother-in-law for EVERYTHING, Her cooking, Her looks, Her nagging. EVERYTHING.

Don’t most casseroles obliterate the taste of the meat within?

Better to obliterate the taste of mutton.
