Its not a desperate google to *win*, its a self evident fact from living in France for 15 years and speaking the language: Frappé is French, and as I showed you Café Frappé recipes from France predate the Greek copy by over a century.
Quote how you managed to degenerate a thread abut making mayonnaise into a personal argument says a lot about you Mark. You have a habit of doing this, your tone is aggressive and confrontationary, and the rest of your post describes you very well.
My advice. Stop being such a douche and learn to live with people.

No. The French have "frappe", and it's just espresso (Italian) coffee over ice -- crushed ice, as you go further south and into Italy.
And don't start claiming great or lengthy knowledge on the subject. To quote your first mention: "Café Frappe sounds American". You then googled (badly, because you got all incorrect results).
If you want a trollish google fight, take it elsewhere.

The term Cafe Frappe, which is what I thought you were referring to, when used in an English language sentence, is most likely to occur in America than the UK. As is Cafe Late etc. In fact it does exist in America (without the accent note) Cafe Frappe Recipes at MrCoffee.com.[^]
The word Frappe is however obviously of French derivation (ie Latin, and therefore Italian too).
Café Frappé is therefore French for iced coffee, recipes for which predate the Greek copy by a century, and is the term used in France. I know, I have lived in the South of France for 15 years and have ordered it frequently.
A Frappé is just a milkshake, as it is in Italy: LES FRAPPÉS | McDonald's France[^] Unsurprising since they are both Latin languages and therefore share the same roots.

Oh, bollocks, mate. Just give it up. You clearly stated that you'd never heard of it, before I mentioned it, so you're just as clearly displaying "google expertise".
Learn how to discuss what you know, without googling, and without having to ***win*** (because there's **** all given away in prizes, here).

Never heard of it? Bullshit. Where did I say I have never heard of Café Frappé?
You are clearly some sort of f***ing idiot since I clearly stated I have drunk it enough times in France.

That's a 'frappe machine' I never heard of you clot.
Café Frappé I often drink.
Get your facts right Mark instead of (intentionally) misunderstanding them to create an argument.

Ah, the "you're too stupid to have understood what I said" routine.

I remember when they started selling the hand mixers, all ads used the mayonnaise example as the selling for the gadget.
I like to add a little bit of mustard in it (and skip the garlic).
I'd rather be phishing!
|
|
|
|

Mine is an aioli in fact, which I prefer, but yeah, a classic mayo can have mustard.
I don't use the stab mixer itself to make the mayo, just to emulsify the oil. I then hand whisk it into the yolk. You would have to be using like 5 eggs or something for a stab mixer to even reach the yolk!

Let me say that if I did not know you were all a bunch of bacon-eating . . . well, naturally I'd ask "why would one make such a horrific concoction, let alone soil food with it and then put it in their mouth?"
But, as I said - the explanation is self evident. Ketchup and potato chips ('a/k/a crisps'). Single Malt Whisky Sours. French cuisine. All of it makes any sentient being cringe.

Horrific concoction!!!!!!!!!!??????!!!!!!
KILL THE UNBELIEVER!
Its delicious, aioli, garlic mayo, on chips, with artichoke (as I just had), in fish stew (bourride, cim y tomba), even just eaten on its own, it is that nice!
|
|
|
|
|
Only one thing comes to mind after that outburst!
Would you like a straw to sip the mayo, or do you prefer it directly from the jar?

straight from the jar, too thick to use a straw, its almost solid.
It does mature well in the jar though, gets even better. By the end of the week you will wonder how you ever lived without it!
Salad sandwich? White bread, lettuce, cucumber, tomato and AIOLI! Yummy!

Two words:
Prawn Cocktail
It may be rather 70's - but by heck it's tasty!
Plus, even a burger can benefit from a little mayo between the bun and the lettuce. It adds flavour and helps to "moisturise" the dry bun.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Thanks to that feedback, I think I'll have to stick to oatmeal*, today, just to make sure I can keep my food down.
* OATMEAL - the perfect food. Even if you get nauseous after you eat it, if you catch it in a bowl you can eat it again: it looks the same and it's still warm!**
** And even that beats mayo, prawns, &etc.

yummo - I'll have to try that recipe/method - Ive done it with Tarragon Vinegar and macadamia oil, which was pretty darn good
|
|
|
|
|
That's going to be close to a béarnaise, sounds tasty!
|
|
|
|
|
I never thought of it like that, but yes, close to béarnaise, good call
The macadamia oil doesnt impart much taste to the mayo, unlike stronger oils - Im sure there are other less flavoursome oils that I could have used
|
|
|
|
|
Bernaise is of course based on melted butter as the oil, but the tarragon is the principle flavour.
Talking of oil flavour though, the reason I use a 50/50 olive and plain oil is olive oil on its own is just too strong. 50/50 you get an ideal amount of olive oil flavour.
|
|
|
|
|
Sounds delicious - what proportions do you use for the ingredients?
|
|
|
|
|
SO for one or two people its about half a mug of oil in total, one egg yolk, one garlic clove and a teaspoon or two of vinegar with about a half teaspoon of salt?
Hard to say really, I never really measure anything.

I've joked with my friends how it's cheaper and easier to just buy a new printer than new cartridges but I've just found myself in a situation where it seems completely out of proportion.
Since we have several hp m553's I bought a new one when an older 551 broke. Cost roughly 300 euros. Cartridges with 9500 prints cost about 250 euros a pop so 3x250 for the colors and another 200 euro for black for 12500 prints.
Another 553 is beginning to run out of a few colors but for the sake of it I printed out the status of the new printer. The cartridges that came with it says that it still got 4700+ of each color. So it seems it came with about 5000prints worth of colors.
So 300 euro for a new printer + 5000 prints or 950 euro to completely restock the cartridges.
Even if we go through with a deal to get new cartridges for 30% cheaper it seems almost economical to just keep buying new printers...
I thought printer companies had started to change this because of all the flack I've seen thrown at them, serves me right. ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif)
