Dear Fanny,
I’m in a spot of bother with the local Constabulary.As you know Fanny, the present food trend is to forage for one’s own herbs. After a night taking part in a little wild garlic gathering on Hampstead Heath, I found myself on the wrong end of a policeman’s truncheon. After a bit of a kerfuffle, he summoned the help of his uniformed friend, whose helmet I managed to grab with both hands before giving it a rather tight squeeze.
This only enraged the young officer. He handcuffed me to a tree where his chum layed into me good and proper! I was released and returned to my car which was illegally parked. I’ve since received a rather large vehicle recovery bill from the local force.
Do you have a nice recipe using wild garlic?
BennyFanny Replies;Ah the joys of foraging! Believed to be invented in 1983, foraging has once again become a must for all celebrity chefs.From Hesgota Bloomincheek to the little fat Ginger Cooking God that is Anthony Whata Thieving Tosspot. They’re all at it! JUST BUY SOME F@CKING HERBS YOU TIGHT BASTARDS!
Anyway, your recipe Benny.
