First For Everything

First For Everything  is my archive for blog entries that involve me trying an entirely new thing. I don't have any hard and fast rules as to what counts as being a unique experience, but I tend to stick to these parameters:

• I have never eaten the food/recipe before in any form
• I have never made, attempted or created the food before
• I have never tasted the specific flavour of the food/recipe before
• It has to be half interesting

For example: 

• If I have tried a passion fruit coulis (which I have) but not a fresh passion fruit (which I also have but, calm down, this is just an example) then it doesn't count
• I can't do two separate entries for chicken chow mein and duck chow mein (since, bar the meat, they are the same thing)
• I can't eat grass because firstly why the hell would I and, secondly, I couldn't possibly spin a story of myself literally chewing the cud and make it interesting

So without further ado, here is the list:

#1 Sharon Fruit
#2 Making My Own Pizza
#3 Physalis
#4 Oyster Mushrooms
#5 Oysters
#6 Chicken Livers
#7 Dressed Crab
#8 Anchovies
