This weekend’s Secret Pickle Supper Club was our most intimate ever and was held at Steeped and Infused. The theme was Tea and we enjoyed a fantastic meal, interesting guests, and a wonderful venue. We couldn’t ask for better.

Jennifer Best, the founder of Steeped and Infused, who educated us about each tea as the course it was used in was presented. Matt did an amazing job incorporating such a complex yet delicate ingredient into each course.

Tea Pickle Menu

Tea Sangria, Jennifer’s special recipe incorporating her Green & White Grapefruit Supreme blend,

Bronzion ceviche made with kumquats, ginger ale and hibiscus.

Asparagus raw & cooked, mushroom raw and cooked, potato confit, manchego, ramps, gunpowder custard

Lapson Souchong-Copper River Salmon, spruce tips, grapefruit, and watercress soup

Milk-poached scallop, with yogurt, peanuts, raisins and Monk’s Blend “fried sauce”

Veal Osso Buso with mustard spaetzle, fava beans, ricotta, dill and Canadian Spring Maple Tea Blend.

Sous-vide pork loin with capres, fennel, sun-dried tomato and Rooibos Lemon Chiffon pudding

Spring Iced Ice Tea

“Tea Service”: chocolate and jasmine ganache served with tea cookies, spearmint, and rhubarb.

Big thanks to Jennifer Best for use of Steeped and Infused, and to the hard working and fantastic Secret Pickle Crew: Matt, Marichka, Wade and Gerry.

Plating from a British WW1 Torpedo boat destroyer, Lelant, Cornwall. [3] by Hamish Fenton

Plating from a British WW1 Torpedo boat destroyer, Lelant, Cornwall.

Grid Reference: SW 5500 3777

see multimap

also google maps (aerial view)

looking in "Lost Ships of the West Country" by Martin Langley and Edwina Small, published by "Stanford Maritime" in 1988

This is a Torpedo Boat Destroyer, parts of the port side and superstructure built into the bank around 1920, at that time TW Ward (based in Essex) had a shipbreaking yard here (they had another 12 nationwide) and were breaking redundent vessels from WW1. The identity of this ship is unknown.

the book suggests this ship could be a veteren of Jutland.

For more of my photos of this location see the main photo and comment below at: www.flickr.com/photos/hamishfenton/3552048707

---

in the photographs where the plating has collapsed you can see the fill of material behind, this includes a lot of reinforced concrete lamp posts, which I think are post 1945, it is suggested that these plates were built in the bank in 1920 to help reduce erosion, which makes me wonder why there is a later fill. I think it possible, although I have no evidence, that it could be the side of a wharf with a wooden floor on the top built to quickly expand the size of the wharfs here where they were ship breaking, these later became unsafe and some time after the second world war the space behind the plates was backfilled -all in my imagination unless someone can find some evidence.

Cream Cheese Mousse Plating 2 by rositata

In this one, the apple jelly was melted and poured on top of the cream cheese mousse. The cream cheese mousse is close to a cheesecake but the flavour is very subtle.

Metal Plating Shop by SolanoSnapper

4 5

During World War II the Mare Island Naval Shipyard was an important contributor to the efforts of the US Navy. The shipyard has since been closed. The restoration of wetlands and a combination of public, private and commercial uses for the buildings and developed areas are in place or envisioned for the future. As it stands today the area is an incredibly interesting place with ghosts of the past easily available to the photographer in the presence of the amazing old buildings there.

An unhappy legacy of the war effort at Mare Island is toxic waste left behind in some places. Building 225 was the metal plating shop, and has been the subject of much discussion and concern. I have no personal knowledge as to the extent or the causes, but I believe I have heard of similar issues with other military base closures.

Chocolate Mousse Plating by rositata

I was trying to go for a more symmetrical look by placing the individual sized chocolate mousse in the middle and putting the sauce in a circle around it (since I didn't want to have a huge pool of sauce). But the creme anglaise sauce was very runny and didn't behave as I wanted.

My Chocolate Entry by rositata

2 1

This was my entry into the Student Lindt Chocolate Competition that we conducted at George Brown. There's a lot of things I wish I could change about my centerpiece. First of all, I wish I put the top tea cup on the bottom so you can see the detail that went into painting the flowers on it. And I really wish I took a picture downstairs before I brought it upstairs, because I had no idea that I would break it upon setting it down on the mirror.

While they were judging, I was totally expecting the stack of tea cups to fall over, and that it would be a mess but it did withstand the few hours they were in there judging.
