Crushingly, the cookies last week were NOT popular. Half the batch was left in the drawer. Which is disappointing. Perhaps I need to scale back Cookie Thursday is a Thing in the operating room and expand to other departments the other weeks.
New week, new make.
The Unexpected Ingredient theme continues. Today, I put marmite in sharp cheddar puff pastry cheese straws.
Marmite, the fermented yeast you either love or hate or hate on principle.
These were unexpectedly yummy.
Marmite isn’t as bad as they would have you believe.
Is it strong tasting? Yes.
Does it smell strong? Yes.
Is it worth it? Yes.
Do I want to explore more taste sensations with marmite?
Yep. Next I will do a butter and marmite on toast.
After I pick up the CTIAT leftovers at the hospital later this evening.
By the way, marmite is an excellent source of B vitamins. But it is also very high in salt and should be eaten sparingly.
