Hallowe`en!!!! and a recipe

Hallowe’en is less than a week away! As for me,the festivities begin Friday evening all through the weekend with parties to attend.
We’ve had such a busy, delicious and fun summer  interviewing Ted Reader, Pete Sanagan Of Sanagan’s Meat Locker, Windy Field Farm and Landman Gardens and Bakery as well as a handful of burger showcase/interviews.

On behalf of the motley crew of Broads and myself THANK YOU for joining us here at The BroadHouse. We love what we do  and sure are glad to be able to have the opportunity to share a piece of the web with you.
Thank-you!
Wishing you and yours a delicious Hallowe’en

Hallowe’en is the Most Wonderful Time of the Year:)

Happy Penis Day! March 15th

As mentioned in a previous post..Besides the regular,traditional,’normal‘ Holidays if you will, It seems there is a “DAY” these days for everything and I mean everything! under the sun.

If you think it.It IS possible.

There’s Skipping Up & Down the Street Day( July 31st),

National Pie Day (Jan 23rd), National Hamburger Day,(May 28th) No Socks Day( May 8th) Embrace Your Geekness Day(July 13th) and the list of DAYS goes on and on with just too many to mention here

“Honen Matsuriand” (better known to us Western folk as Happy Penis Day) I found of interest as it is a day celebrated in Japan, a custom relating to  renewal and fertility.The festival’s main features are Shinto priests playing musical instruments, a parade of ceremonially garbed participants, all-you-can-drink sake, and a 280 kg (620 pound), 2.5 meter (96 inch)-long wooden phallus.

And then there’s  the American skewed version?

Steak & BJ Day (March 14)    but i digress,that’s tomorrow.

As i just said..if you think it.IT IS Possible, so I googled ‘Penis Shaped Burger‘  What would be the chances? Afterall, Penis is synonymous with weiners, hotdogs and  sausages.

I was disappointed. I did  NOT  find a single thing.

So, dear Lovers of Broads, I have no recipe or penis shaped burger pics to share with you but if you are male and so inclined to make your own and want to share it with a loved one here’s a fun and easy 1,2,3,4 ‘How To’

Happy Penis Day!

Haggis Burger

Somebody help me! Haggis Burger?! Today being Robbie Burns Day I googled

“Haggis Burger” and lo and behold wouldn’t ya know it, there is such burger that exists.Why not?!

I,myself, am not a fan of Haggis but now that it can also be a burger.. hmmm….well, I’m off to search for a nearby pub to grab some haggis burger grub and a lot of pints to beckon the muses of poetry and/or wash that haggis burger down with.

Here’s to Robbie Burns! (with glass in hand,making a toast) and as my grandma would say

“Bottoms Up!”

Here’s some fun facts about Haggis (great website)

and yes.. er.. um ..here is a recipe:
Haggis Burger

Take a whole haggis and skin it carefully, preserving its cheery, rotund shape.
Slice it into .. er, slices, about half an inch thick (or 1.5 cm in new money).
Now you can either grill it or fry it, making sure you do each side, until it is nice and brown. Don’t worry if it starts disintegrating a bit – this is normal – just squash it back together with a couple of teaspoons. (Don’t burn your fingers).

Have your assistant butter some rolls for you and look out all those chutneys and things you got for Christmas – you’ll need them. Place a slice of haggis on each roll and anoint it with chutney – or tomato sauce, brown sauce or piccalilli. You might like some kind of contrasting vegetation such as chopped onion, chopped gherkin or sliced tomato which generally goes well with it. Or, to stick with tradition – if a haggis burger can possibly be described as traditional – add some neeps or tatties and gravy on the top.
