It works both ways

May 8, 2008

So I checked the progress of my tempeh this morning. One batch (made in a plastic bag) had miraculously grown all its fungi overnight and was sitting there, hanging together like a proper tempeh cake. Unreal!

The other batch (made in a stainless steel steamer) had a fine layer of furry white mould over the top. Naturally, I was reminded of my ‘friend on the phone’ (see previous post).

So perhaps there is some kind of reciprocity here. Once somebody declares that a layer of mould reminds them of you, they instantly damn themselves to the same fate!

I showed the mouldy cake to Pip, and asked him if it reminded him of anyone. His reply: “Frosty the Snowman!”

Then I sliced off and discarded the mouldy top layer and we sampled our tempeh. Pip declared it delicious, and he was right.
