T-Bone with Corn
Dandarigan Organic T-bone steak cooked in duck fat to medium rare and served with a sprinkle of cracked pepper. Had with steamed corn on the cob with butter and sea salt.
BTW: *now* my camera works. No doubt paralysed by shyness in the awesome presence of Peter Garret. Got a signed poster though. Woohoo! Thanks to Young Labor for hosting. I snuck in with a line on opportunity, bit of Grecian 2000 and some haemmerhoid cream for the eyes. Finger food though, had me pining for carrot sticks and french onion dip.

I think any food product cooked in duck fat tastes fantastic, don't ask why, it just does.
BTW, will you be coming to the Meetup tonight?

Especially duck, I think it's because it's fat which has more interesting flavour charactersitics than butter and it may, guessing here, have a higher smoking temperature which means you can get the griddle nice n' hot.
Even though gathering in a non-alcoholic venue sounds very tempting for me this dry month, unless my class finishes mysteriously early, I might have to give it a miss. If you're going please send my regards.
Hey went to that Korean Restaurant you recommended, good call, but would do better with a bigger crowd and mmmmmmm booze.

I went with a large group of 10 people, so sharing all the food was a very interesting exercise. I was a little annoyed about having to go out and buy some beer from the Lake Street bottleshop, otherwise I'd have been quite happy with green tea or shoju (sp?).
Was a good night last night, I think the dolls missed you mate.

[Discovery channel moment] The Japanese have no seriously offensive hand gestures, which made negotiating a bike thorugh Tokyo somewhat frustrating.
David,
Yes Shochu, there's a Korean one with a bullfrog on the front which is kind of nice. But the top part of the restaurant looked like it could cater for racousness.
Yeah sorry I couldn't make it, what can I say, I'm a big hit with the dolls -especially 30cm Scandanavian one.

How do you get duck fat? Do you have to buy a piece of duck or does it come prepackaged somehow?
Sorry if this sounds ignorant.

It was lunch. Ducks are great fatty things which makes me wonder how hard their lives can be. You may also get down from a duck and without the need of a ladder.

Good question and Anthony J is very right. I'm getting through a jar of Castaing Graisse de Canard and it's the first one, so duck fat is new to me. It came about as a result of making Cassoulet de Castelnaudary. The nutritional info still makes me laugh.
