Did you ever experience the kitchen prank of rubbing a colleague's home clothes with rosehips so they were covered in the hairs or were we just absolute bastards?
Okay I must procure a jar of those anchovies. Question about cherry puts: what about mahleb (ground cherry pits), used as a flavoring agent in Middle Eastern recipes? Could that potentially be toxic? Not that I expect you to know the answer, but now I’m curious!
I do not believe I have ever heard of any of these amazing food factoids, except maybe the rose hips, but I marvel at the ingenuity of chefs to even dream this up! Fennel pollen? Never entered my mind. 😂 To quote a line from “Itchycoo Park” by the Small Faces: “It’s all too beautiful!”

Yes we did that. I once took a bite of one when young and gullible...
I am experiencing the most profound anchovy envy right now.
They are special...

So glad to be able to share my work.
lemon thyme and peaches...that's a very big yes from me
The most delicious things really.
Delicious writing! :)
Gosh, thank you.
Yes potentially toxic, but the human body has a slight resilience to the toxin in tiny amounts.
