Pickles. Not exactly easy to source this brand it seems. Got these little sachets though to test the range. If I find one I really like the plan is to get a big jar, at some point.
First bag of bought rice for me in a long time. Most brands are doing an extra-long variety these days and thought to try some, after a positive experience from a local TA. Interesting stuff. The grains themselves don't look any bigger to me than standard. However, it tells you on the side of the bag that once cooked the grains expand to 2.5 x their length (for the perfect presentation). Is this just down to the variety being able to absorb more water then? This would fit in with TAs using it, as it would, I suppose, be more economical.
Good stuff though. Here is some with an MDB MKI Balti chicken dhansak. Awesome curry. Need to work on my dall pre-cook, I may have used the wrong one. It's a keeper though. 1/2 tsp sugar and Del Monte pineapple rings cut into chunks. Fresh unwaxed lemon juice and a fair bit of zest. Saxa black pepper to boost heat in a controlled fashion. Freshly ground black pepper/cumin to finish.
