Yes! I missed that step. Also a bit of olive oil around the crust stops it from charring before the cheese melts.

That sounds amazing.

Iā€™ll be trying this as well :+1:

Not really in the snack domain but recently Iā€™ve found myself doing the the following or similar;

Oil from the sun-dried tomatoes jar + vinegar from the olive jar = awesome salad dressing

Is this weird? Or does everyone do this?

Itā€™s good innit? Never really put much effort into a salad before going vegan (unless it was a chicken Caesar salad or w/e), used to be just boring lettuce, cucumber & tomato as an afterthought. Now Iā€™m chucking everything in there and it seemed mad to just throw the jar remnants away - flavoured oil & vinegar ftw

Itā€™s the veg equivalent of saving bones to make stock (maybe) - thereā€™s flavour in the bits youā€™d throw away, use everything

My vegetarian tvā€™s top salad tip is to toast pumpkin seeds in a pan before chucking them in - it makes them extra delicious and they start to pop and sizzle like corn, great fun!

I am a habitual roasted pine nut eater. Totally addicted, put them on everything. Just wish they were a bit cheaper.

Can remember going to a friends house when i was about 10 and their dad asking if i wanted pizza, he brought me melted cheese on toast with tomato sauce under the cheese.
Nearly chinned him, that is not pizza

Quite like the Spanish method of toasting a bit of nice bread then rubbing it with some garlic and then rubbing some tomatoes into it.

Had to google ā€œpotato cakeā€. Iā€™ve clearly not lived.

Glass of oj and a coffee and youā€™re set for the day. King of holiday brekkys.

If you try to do it yourself on a wet and grey Wednesday morning in northern England you end up in tears after smashing a plate against a wall and you donā€™t even know why
