I've recently noticed what seems to be a fashion for "salted
caramel/chocolate".

Is this new?

Cheers

The fashion here among young chefs is to smoke everything in sight.
Making their own charcuterie is another craze.

What next - milking their own cow.

They experiment and then foist their creations on the public. Most of
these cooks are still wet behind the ears and have no experience in
charcuterie.

The salted caramel thing has been around a good while. I think it started
with a French confectioner in the 80's, and then gradually began to pervade
the mainstream more and more. I have a penchant for L'artisan du Chocolat's
liquid salted caramel balls. Expensive in store, but way cheaper if you buy
the misshapes at their Borough Market stall! ;)

Recently we have noticed salted caramel cakes and sponges in most shops.
Also many on line recipes.

Farmers used to grow Kale to feed to their sheep in winter.

I know. I come from rural Suffolk. I don't know how long you have to
cook it but whenever I've tried it, at home or in a resto, it has been
as tough as blazes.

Most kale in the UK is sold ready chopped in a bag. I wont buy that
stuff because the whole leaf has been chopped together with the tougher
veins. When I can I buy whole leaf kale and strip the green leaf off,
discarding the veins. I throw it into already boiling water and find
that it usually needs a good 20 mins.

Whereas I give the equally nutritious broccoli about 3 minutes in the
microwave.
