My friends' know my culinary tastes!
They would NEVER, same as my thinking, serve something absolutely sickening!
Many moons' ago, I stupidly had my in-law's to Dinner. You know, new d/i/l & all that!
Big, big mistake!
Their food taste was ick, she couldn't cook to save herself, in anyway shape or form. Very ignorant woman on just so MANY levels! I wondered why my husband ate so much bread & jam!
Anyhow, I'd cooked a recipe we love, 'Porc en Croute'.
Which is Pork Fillet with Duxelles of Onion & Mushroom atop, then Pate, topped with Prosciutto, all wrapped in Pastry, & baked slowly.
It comes out golden crispy, & the pork fillet melts in your mouth!
When I served it to them, ignoramic m/i/l asked, 'what's this?'.
It's amazing she didn't see the 'steam' coming out of my ears!
Thankfully, their son (my husband) said to them, 'just eat it, & enjoy as it's very tasty, & delicious'.
He's seen the 'look' on my face!
NEVER, never ever, had them to a meal at our house again!
