Manuka Honey Glazed Ham
Tumblr media
Our Sunday Lunch today takes inspiration from my recent journey across Aotearoa New Zealand. The pièce de résistance, this beautiful Manuka Honey Glazed Ham, was one of the meats I ate when we lunched at Te Puia in Rotorua. It was most excellent, and I vowed to recreate the recipe at home. I also loved the Hāngī lamb and chicken, but digging an umu (earth oven) in the garden is little more complicated, especially on a rainy day! Happy Sunday, mates!
Ingredients (serves 4 to 6):
1 onion
2 small carrots
1.4-kilo/-pound ham on the bone (uncooked, and preferably not smoked)
1/2 tablespoon juniper berries
1/2 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
1/2 tablespoon coarse sea salt
1 litre/4 cups water
1 large garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
2 heaped tablespoons good Manuka Honey
Peel onion, and cut it into quarters. Peel carrots, and cut them into thick chunks.
Add onion and carrots into a large Dutch oven and place the ham onto them. Sprinkle liberally with juniper berries, whole peppercorns and coarse sea salt. Cover with water (the ham doesn’t need to be completely submerged as it will cook in the steam). 
Place Dutch oven on the stove, over a high flame, and bring to the boil. Then, cover with the lid, reduce heat to low, and simmer, one hour.
In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, dried rosemary and Manuka Honey. Give a good stir until well-blended.
Preheat oven to 200°C/395°F.
Once the ham is cooked, lift it out of the Dutch oven, and onto a roasting or baking dish. 
Carefully remove the skin from the ham, so you are left with a thin layer of fat. Using a sharp knife, score the fat in a criss-cross manner.
Generously spread Manuka Honey mixture onto the ham. Place baking dish into the hot oven, and roast, at 200°C/395°F, for 20 to 25 minutes, until golden brown on top, occasionally basting it with its fat and the Manuka Honey glaze.
Serve hot, with its roasting juices and Manuka Honey and Thyme Roasted Kūmara. A Waiheke Island Pinot Noir, or a French Beaujolais Nouveau would pair nicely with it!

Short DPXDC Prompts #443
Danny moves to Gotham and chooses to do his best to help all wayward children that come across his path.
He keeps seeing another ghost on his visits near the Narrows, a very small boy in a ratty and torn up Robin costume...

Aaron: “No? Why would I do that??”
Lochlann: “…”
Lochlann: “Would it help if I commited treason. Would that make you listen to me.”
Aaron: But is it really treason if you're just being a "good person"?
Lochlann: YES. IT LEGALLY IS.
Aaron: Hmmmmm

Monkey King VS Monkie Kid! Who will win? Probably not the kid who doubts his ability to win and has the lives of everyone in the world resting on his shoulders.
I looked at @xynnoix 's AU and went "oooooh, angsty," and I thought of this idea and went "oooooh, angsty," and I looked at how many panels I couldn't keep from drawing and went "oooooh, angsty," which is really just my thing, you know?

the "strange place" could be a private wildlife collector? i know the buying and selling of wild animals as pets can be pretty bad in the uk (or at least it is w/ birds of prey? that's abt what i know)
OH that's a good idea, that's going to be one of my top choices for if I DO end up needing to change the "twoleg den" in the upcoming super edition. Private wildlife collectors are a HUGE problem because the laws on simply owning exotic animals (as long as they're not covered by the Dangerous Wild Animals Act) are suuuuper lax in the UK, and the Zoo Licensing Act only applies if you accept general admission.
(and even then, specifically, you can take admission a limited amount of times a year. James Wellington's Animal Welfare Nightmare Extravaganza, beloved winter tradition, £25 each, kiddies of edible height get in free)
Birds in particular are a huuuge issue because there's big oversights in the laws surrounding the keeping of birds of prey. You don't actually need a license to own any birds except ostriches and cassowaries, or one of the five destructive invasive birds. Your pet eagle just needs to be registered so they know you didn't snatch it from the wild. Licenses will only apply if you're breeding, selling, or using it for falconry.
Maybe I could even tie this hypothetical antagonist guy to Sharptooth/One Eye/The God of Summer's previous human incarnation, on some off-chance the series ends up using this villain again. That could be kinda neat.

Riverdale is crazy this, Riverdale is crazy that. Have y'all taken the time to actually read Archie comics? Read a few and they might seem normal enough, but every once in a while you'll get shit that would stop the Riverdale writer's room in their tracks.
Case and point: Archie Gets a Job (1977)

Ok, I've kinda had this idea for a while but a precious ask about the clone dad Danny brought it back to the surface.
What if YJ season 1 Connor meets a 16-17 yo Danny after a bad mission and just starts venting to this small town super? Like he's tired of everyone trying to play nice when he's angry and wants to punch something and instead of trying to make him feel better he just listens. And it works. Conner goes back to the mountain feeling lighter and less grouchy and the rest of the team just think the night air cleared his head some?
But then he does it again the next time they have a bad mission, and then the next, then eventually he starts visiting Danny just to talk about things he's learned and stuff he wants to ask about but can't with the team.
Eventually the team is like "where does he keep going?" Cuz every time he comes back from a walk he's in a good mood, so they follow him and find him and Danny in a park in some small town just stargazing.
It doesn't have to be a romance, could just be a friendship, but I just think it'd be an interesting way for Kon to get his feelings out and for Danny to be introduced to the team that isn't by collective adoption.
Oh this is very sweet.
This could absolutely just be a Danny and Kon just being two pals who use each other for mental support.
It absolutely also could be the start of a slow burn romance. Kon is slowly learning how to healthily vent his anger and Danny is just really happy to have a friend who has no other ulterior motives. Danny uses a bit of the psychology information he gained from Jazz to try his best to help give Kon some tips and ideas on how to properly interact with people and how people work in general.

Put wylan in a rage room and at first he wouldn't break anything claiming he doesn't like it but five minutes later he would be covered in sweat, bat hung over his shoulder, surrounded by the destruction of his own making
