flank steaks rolled up with spinach and melted cheese. That sounds horrifying.
i mean, that's a fairly common Mediterranean thing: pounded flank steak tenderized with some herbs and spices, with feta, spinach, roasted tomatoes, mozzarella/feta/bleu cheeses, onions, and pepper rolled and tied together like you would a ham hock or filleted steak et c. then baked and seared. i often serve with a side of dirty rice or pilaf.
it requires some careful cooking (or just cook it twice) and it's meant to come out like this:
i guarantee you that Lucas' bizarre food combos are foul - but it seems that's when he's left to his own devices. when he's influenced by others, or the perception that others are watching him make something, it seems that instead of popcorn paste abortions, he tries to impress people with his "gourmet haute cuisine" from the ingredients to the presentation.
he's just woefully inept at it.
also is taking food and the
dip pan into the bathroom a regular thing now? so many bizarre and often unsanitary habits.
So is it like a calorie mate?
i've eaten D rat choco bricks and it has the rough flavor of the nestle chocolate powder you use to make cheap chocolate milk. except it's just the powder itself. also it's not sweetened. you are meant to break off a piece and let it melt/chew on it over time. it also contained various vitamin infusions which made it burn rather than melt due to the high temperature requirements. it was popular to add salt to it and boil it into water, which was fairly decent all things considered.
after the 90's the jungle bar (congo bar?) was made and was much more fudge like, but extremely chewy. you could literally loose a tooth if you just bit into it hard enough and tried to yank the bar free.
Juusto (Juustoleipa) is a Finnish cheese made from rich milk from reindeer, cows, and some others - it tends to
burn not melt despite the fat content (12%) because it's often sold as a dried cheese. it's best for warming and softening and placing onto a burger or shredded into salad or on toasted buttery bread.
