Yup. What more do you expect from a 90′s chef, than the staple of all 90′s cafes. A muffin. They’re pretty cool, easy to muck around with, but not so easy to get a good recipe for. So, in the open source spirit that I personally embrace, here’s a recipe for something else found in the cafe. Dori and I modified a recipe in a Hungarian baking book entitled “Muffenock”(Sic).
With only 16,000 Arancini to make in the next 8 working days (no joke here) my subsequent trip to New Zealand will surely mean lots of open-fire, beach cooked recipes using ingredients not cheaply found in the UK, and hence useless to most in a practical sense.
Kiwis are just so cool.
