When I was in London last month (nice weather, prices that would fry your
brain faster then a pound of red savs), I bought some rather nice hab sauce
at Sainsburys. Stupid thing is, I can't quite remember the name. Someting
like Emona, or Elton, or something. Tall, square bottle, blue label, cost
89p. Just an average fairly mild hab sauce, but about the best value for
money in the whole country. They had some other flavours (not in
sainsbury's, though) that looked interesting, but I didn't get a chance to
try them.
Can anyone dredge up the name, and has anyone else tried their other sauces?
P.S: Just under tower bridge, there's a little spice shop that sells just
about everything! I got some Grains of Paradise there, had to leave them
with my uncle, as I didn't fancy bringing them back through customs...
Yummy things, I'm thinking maybe a paste for grilling, with black and
szechuan pepper, chipotle and onions in an oil base.
Also found lime powder, made from ground-up whole dried limes. Holy smokes,
what a flavour! Yoghurt marinade, garlic and cumin, on lamb. A little
oregano for good measure. Mmmm.
