Ground uncooked peas do smell awful because they are poisonous, you might want to go for cooked pea flour (which is what is sold in stores) in case you underbake the bread.

I'm so hungry all of a sudden.

Remember your ABCs man: Always Be Concentrating.

The concentrate would be great for beef dishes I think.

Careful now, saffron is meant to be used sparingly and not to dominate the dish.

Apparently you can get high off nutmeg with awful after effects, I wonder if someone tried that back and wrote about this.

Tangential to the subject of saffron, try lightly toasting some then crumble it into your cookie mix.
It makes snickerdoodles taste terrific and would probably complement other types of cookies.

counterpoint: saffron is not that expensive for how little you need, I could easily flavour 10-15 cups of tea with 1 gram

In the satirical novel "Adventures of the soldier Ivan Chonkin" a self styled inventor serves Ivan some homemade vodka and later described how he made it from animal droppings and sugar. Ivan is not amused.

Watch out for the recursive loop on program #564 it calls for you to increase

In other coffee news, I can heartily recommend roasting your own green beans on a stovetop - you can buy the online and it's fun to experiment with roast levels yourself.

Seconded, I found some interesting flavours that I never associated with coffee before.
Everyone who consider themselves a coffee lover should give it a try.

Modern Germany has plenty of Turks and other coffee loving immigrants but was it really this bad in the 19th century?

while looking up the subject I found out that Prussia had something of a war on coffee drinking:

http://www.web-books.com/Classics/ON/B0/B701/13MB701.html posted:

Meanwhile coffee met with some opposition in Prussia and Hanover. Frederick the Great became annoyed when he saw how much money was paid to foreign coffee merchants for supplies of the green bean, and tried to restrict its use by making coffee a drink of the "quality". Soon all the German courts had their own coffee roasters, coffee pots, and coffee cups.

Frederick the Great posted:

It is disgusting to notice the increase in the quantity of coffee used by my subjects, and the amount of money that goes out of the country in consequence. Everybody is using coffee. If possible, this must be prevented. My people must drink beer. His Majesty was brought up on beer, and so were his ancestors, and his officers. Many battles have been fought and won by soldiers nourished on beer; and the King does not believe that coffee-drinking soldiers can be depended upon to endure hardship or to beat his enemies in case of the occurrence of another war.

From my quick internet search it seems that coffee was always much more liked in Austria than the rest of Germany, Vienna in particular had many of the earliest coffeehouses. In which many socialists and anarchists met and debated revolution.

Also entirely non kosher, some jews don't care that much about kashrut markings but definitely would like to know if a food product contains insects.

E: And Wikipedia tells me that most schools of islam don't consider insects halal either.

Quick culinary analysis:
Fascists being fascists it's no surprise that the attempt to revitalise the European kitchen takes no looks at Asian, African or anything outside the strictest interpretation of the Classic kitchen and merely rearranged the paltry offerings into strange shapes.
And booze, this is more of a plan to just get drunk than any exciting culinary exploration.

Mods, how about goldmining this thread in remembrance?

We all had good times here, and we're sorry to get the news.
