You've heard about thick beef steaks slow cooked for 12 hours? Well six months was over doing it I think.

PS What prompted the original post was we had a slow food festival in SA (South Aust) coming up at that time. I also attended a 'slow food group' wine tasting in Tuscany once and blind tasted 8 (or so) Sangiovese wines of the class just below Brunello (forget the classification will need to look it up).

Slow food is a movement in philosophical opposition to "fast food" ie food that is fresh, has taste, has style and texture, and that isn't designed to be gulped down and washed down (to stop from choking) with a watered down flavoured water, but is to be enjoyed slowly and fully.

More to come soon! (have you seen me write that before
