I didn’t have to cook for someone else. I like to think I am a normal person. That with no one looking over my shoulder I will eat like any other fully grown toddler left to themselves and grab some fast food or microwave some chicken nuggets.
But I had a small loaf of bread I baked earlier with no clear use. I started looking through the cabinets and found an emergency tin of smoked herring and an open bottle of port wine.
Okay, fine. I’ll eat like a fully grown toddler from the 18th century.
This is sooo tasty.
Cost per person: $4


The fancy wine glass is 👌
Herrings are great, I love them in every form, nothing wrong with your meal
You can drink port from any glass. Even a mason jar. I’ve actually drank a $100 bottle of vintage port from a quart mason jar. But I have found that an ISO compatible port glass really is the best way to grab the full flavor experience for port wine.
I have to trust your word. I have a couple of bottles of wine I got as gifts in my basement, even though neither the giving or receiving party actually drinked wine. I think it was meant to be a classy gift or something?
Anyway, the ones I could use for cooking are used up, and the medium sweet that’s left will probably be there until I pass or become an alcoholic.
Edit: the thing about becoming an alcoholic. It’s not to insult anyone, it’s to say wine is my least favourite alcohol and alcoholics will drink anything under pressure.
