[parmo2]

Wow you GF already has an article ?

Sorry, I really don't understand what the 'article' reference is

[RichBKK]

Cremated a croissant in a microwave once, set it for 15 minutes rather than 45 seconds. Same happened to a cheesecake due to not being familiar with bang and olufsen type ovens. Was burnt to a cinder

Apart from those errors though, and once familiar with the equipment there were no further problems

Sorry, I really don't understand what the 'article' reference is

You previously referred to your GF as "THE (article) GF"

[Thai at Heart]

[Thongkorn]

I agree - so don't buy them!

There are enough western alternatives available.

I cook all Western for both of us and she cooks all Thai, which is what we eat most of the time. I would never trust her to cook a full blown Western meal after watching her fry eggs in the early days and defrosting frozen chips before frying them.

I got coriander in my coffee this morning .

That's standard in Arab countries. It's called "hell" and tastes not to bad. Your wife knows this culture?

Only tomato sauce on the Xmas turkey one year, by my 'wife's' son. He hasn't done it since.

Cardamom, perhaps, but not cardamon.

the list is endless:

-Thai "crepes" Sickly sweet papiermaché conistency. Not remotely resembling the real thing

- Thai pizza with curry topping. Yuck

- Thai Cakes especially the one that tries to resembles black forest with disgusting fake cream, saturated with sugar.

- Thai smoothies; with MILK, really? Just call it a milkshake please !

- Thai croissant: choice between yucky butter or gross marg

- Thai Feta cheese totally worth spending extra 100thb to get greek one

- Thai egg custard, Thai can now proudly be the first to not only denature Euro pastries but Chinese too, yes they managed to make this simple dessert yucky too!

- Thai sausages, just gross

- Thai Pain au chocolat which here is named Danish or croissant depending how stupid they think you are.

Regrettably, they are singularly the most inept nation at desserts that I have come across.

Sausages pizza and smooties are not desserts

I don't believe that I said that they were. Are you just trying to get your post count up ?

I just love those smooties, don't you ?

As I said, my wife doesn't use them, but when you come across them, they are truly vile.

Q: How does your wife 'destroy' Western food?

A: Same way you destroy Thai food.

Simple, isn't it?

How come it NEVER occurred to YOU?

I think you are missing the point of this thread.

Your comment is also factually incorrect.

You are correct

[BookMan]

Thinking about it, I don't think my GF has ever made me any western food.

[AndersM]

Nothing wrong with good steak dipped in a no of home made sauce.

But I guess you have the Thai cooking side if things down pat. Glass houses and all that...

Remind me if we ever meet no to offer to buy you a proper steak She cooked the steaks to perfection, it was the rudeness with which she treated it that caused my near stroke...

God, I wish I could cook good Thai food. Since she and the kiddos are in the states and I am back and forth, I am forced to restaurants and street carts when I want a good Thai meal.

I wouldn't call a 21 day steak a proper steak. I'd prefer a couple of more weeks hanging.

And I hope you consider a properly cooked streak one which has only briefly seen a hot flame. Otherwise I don't think we are on the same page of what is defined as a 'good steak'

In the end it is probably my gastric juices , bacteria and stuff in my gut that destroys the food my wife makes , with or without love .

[herb59]

western food ,uahhh, mostly horrible. too fat and/or sweet. too much meat.

[khunpa]

My girlfriend once made a nice open sandwich consisting of a slice of white bread with liver pate, topped up with a thick slice of cheese.

Never saw that combination before, but she said it tasted good.

[Dr. Burrito]

My ex nuked my foie gras pate.

I do believe that takes the prize on the thread to date.... Push come to shove, you can wipe ketchup or hot sauce off a good steak. There is no coming back from wprime's pain though.
