idun Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 My son told me to try, crumpets and foie gras as he thinks it is delicious.This lunch time I did.Frankly I hadn't fancied it, although I really enjoy crumpets and foie gras, but together, I had my doubts. Well, I shall have it again, I really enjoyed it. Whether I would risk giving it to guests, I'm not sure, but it shall be on the menu chez Idun, on the rare occasion that we have foie gras.

Gardengirl Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I'm informed by many on another forum that Warburton's crumpets are the absolute best; lots of them at Tesvo for £1 apparently. I like them occasionally smothered in butter, but don't eat many per year. Never heard of foie gras on crumpets, but an interesting thought. Did you also have them with a suitable wine, or with a cup of tea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 Well I have always bought Warburtons, but my friend said that M&S were the best, and as someone who can no longer stand M&S, have to agree with her, they are. And it was with an M&S crumpet I had my foie gras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gardengirl Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I buy them fro M&S too, when I do buy them, and rather like their tea cakes too. Hot, buttered toasted tea cakes, ideal for a snack on a chilly winter's day - not today with wall to wall sunshine and 16C though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racerbear02 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I would agree that the mixture does sound a bit strange, but if I ever have both items in the house at the same time, I will try it.My personal favourite way to eat crumpets is to toast a good Cantal entre deux mers on top until it is brown and bubbling MMMMMBit cheaper than foie gras as well :).

nectarine Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 sounds nice but crumpets are a no-no ... it's the air that's trapped in those holes which in turn gets trapped in my stomach and decides to make its escape in a most unladylike - and decidedly whiffy - way. So no crumpets here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
