I thought you meant in the context of smoking the contents of a teabag when you're out of tobacco

Carmenere · 08/04/2008 17:49

I have done it with prawns

zippitippitoes · 08/04/2008 17:50

i don't know about smoking the food, sorry but yes, go with the porn food idea
am fascinated re smoking it, will hang around until someone more knowledgeable turns up

zippitippitoes · 08/04/2008 17:50

assuming you are talking smoking and not porn with prawns

and mushrooms and chicken.

Ok so get a heavy based pot, line the base with tinfoil, place tea leaves and sugar on it, place a wire rack over the tea, place the items to be smoked on top of the rack, place a layer of foil over the items, place a lid tightly over the foil, place the pot ove the heat and leave for about 15 minutes. Prepare to open windows to let smoke out.

What? Are you smoking pot?

zippitippitoes · 08/04/2008 17:54

oh right looks like it might have to be chez zippi then

but will it set off the smoke alarms

perhaps romance is slightly going out of the window

would it workw with herring we had nice herring in lithuasnia at the weekend

OP posts:
DarrellRivers · 08/04/2008 17:54

smoky atmosphere might not be conducive to romance [pondering}

zippitippitoes · 08/04/2008 17:54

no have long since given up sdmoking to get high

OP posts:
Carmenere · 08/04/2008 17:56

AFAIK smoked herrings are kippers, so whilst delicious in themselves not really conducive to romance But yes it would work.

The prawns work well because they only take a few minutes to cook

GentleOtter · 08/04/2008 17:58

I smoke fish, vegetables, meat or whatever in a little tin smoker outside. It cost £20 and the chippings are about £1. You can buy single-use smoking bags for about £2 and they are different flavours eg hickory, birch etc.
The smoking process takes about one hour.
Smoked fish with banana(also smoked)is lovely.

zippitippitoes · 08/04/2008 18:00

oh where did you get the smoker

ah yes i guess yoiu might be right about kippers

perhaps smoking is not terribly romantic it saounded romantic when i suggested it lol

OP posts:
GentleOtter · 08/04/2008 18:55

I got the smoker from a fishing tackle shop.
here Their smokers are expensive but it lets you see all the different kinds.

zippitippitoes · 08/04/2008 19:00

oh thats interesting there are loads

i have a book called the country kitchen by jocasta innes which has stuff about real smokers

i could bbuild a brick on and get him to make the chimney bit

River Cottage books go on about it too.
It's a good idea - I might do this. I have been trying and failing to get smoked cod's roe to make taramasalata so maybe I should smoke my own....
I think HFW says you can make your own smoker easily from a biscuit tin.
