I wander upward in addition to downward the aisles inwards the supermart looking for Marmite. It's non amongst jams in addition to spreads, nor sauces in addition to condiments. Baking products? Nope, non in that place either. Where else could it be?
You'd never guess! Marmite, together amongst its best friend, Bovril, is sitting side past times side to the coughing syrups, plasters in addition to ENO.
Why?
God exclusively knows!
Love it or abhor it? I've never had Marmite before, in addition to I can't hold off to detect out.
The best description of Marmite I've come upward across is from Reginald Hunter. He said, "Marmite tastes similar there's a naked human amongst hairy legs inwards your kitchen, in addition to every directly in addition to in i lawsuit to a greater extent than yous accept a plate amongst roughly toast, in addition to walk onto his butt in addition to become “Ok friend, create what yous create best!”
Even Marmite can't resist making a dig at Marmite:
I'm a chip apprehensive nearly eating Marmite, to live honest. I dip the tip of a chopstick into the jar, in addition to accept a trivial lick of the black, gooey stuff, neat.
Hmm . . .
It's rather similar reduced fish sauce, which I made in i lawsuit past times error when trying a Thai recipe. Kinda burnt in addition to bitter, in addition to extremely salty. Pretty nasty, inwards other words.
Marmite non bad isn't for me. Next, I endeavour the most pop agency of enjoying Marmite: a wee chip of the yeast extract spread t-h-i-n-l-y on generously buttered toast. I accept a minor seize amongst teeth in addition to . . .
Hey, it's non bad!
The tabular array salt inwards the yeast extract goes good amongst butter.
The grand finale in addition to highlight of my tasting session was pork amongst Marmite. The thick, meaty prime number ribs braised amongst Marmite, sugar, honey, ketchup in addition to Worcestershire sauce could live summed upward inwards i alphabet:
Mmmmm . . .
The saccharide in addition to dearest mask the burnt, bitter gustation of Marmite, leaving a sweetness in addition to savory sauce that's a perfect jibe amongst tender, juicy ribs falling off the bone. If everyone eats Marmite this way, I'm certain in that place wouldn't live whatsoever Marmite abhor groups!
