Last winter, my breakfast consisted of porridge at least five days a week. I experimented with various options. I've always thought of porridge in religious terms, for some reason, so here are my recipes with suitable religious labels:
- Calvinist porridge: oats, water, salt. Not bad, actually. - Episcopalian porridge: oats, water (70%), semiskimmed milk (30%). - Liberal porridge: Episcopalian plus a small handful of top-grade fruit-and-nut muesli (Jordan's for preference) - Anglo-Catholic porridge: Episcopalian plus jam (blueberry is really good) - Argentinian Catholic porridge: oats, semiskimmed milk, spoonful of dulche de leche (awesome, but very very sweet)
I'd also you try smoked-salmon-and-scrambled-egg on toast next time you have a small amount of leftover smoked salmon to hand...
The 2008 Polar Hero breakfast is a portion-size sachet of Alpen, made up with Nido powdered milk and hot water, and eaten out of the sachet to avoid washing up. The 1958 Polar Hero breakfast was Weddell seal's brains on toast!
