  • Fellow Marmite fans only

    I don't want to hear from the "bleaurgh - it's 'orrible brigade", don't buy it - the packing is nice and bright so you don't get it mixed up with your crab paste.

    Anyway - defensiveness out of the way, I very frequently have Marmite on toast of a morning, with the occasional day were I have either Gentlemen's Relish, or some form of jam/preserve/conserve (blueberry conserve today for example).

    Now, when I have the other two I always spread butter on first, allow it to melt and then spread the GR, or Jam etc. With Marmite however I just go raw - straight Marmite onto dry toast.

    So, fellow Marmiters - how do you do it?

      I love the stuff, but NEVER on raw toast. I've done it a couple of times out of desperation but it makes my teeth feel funny. I'm a straightforward toast and butter (both homemade ) and a lot of Marmite. I'm a bit wary of strange folks who only like a teensy thin scraping. You've got to commit to it!

      This morning though, I have toast with Philly and marmite. Nice!

      I confess that I don't understand Gentlemen's Relish.

        I'm on the fence with this one. Sometimes I like it and sometimes I don't.

            Ah, but when you like it are you with, or without butter?

                    straight on dry toast

                      Butter mixed with the marmite using an electric whisk! Nigella's method.
                      Have you ever come across Marmite and cheese bread, HW?

                          The first rule of the "Fellow Marmite fans only" thread is:
                          You do not talk about (how you don't like) Marmite!

                          White bread: Spread (not butter), melted, Marmite on top.
                          Brown bread: Spread (not butter), Marmite on top.

                          Same with Bovril. Call me crazy, but I just don't enjoy either Marmite or Bovril as much with butter. I have butter with jam or honey, it's not a healthy thing, it's purely taste.

                              What a fiend they are!

                              Sorry, I know it's not the norm to point out typos as we all do them, but I liked that one.

                              EDIT: And looks like I got in pretty quick too!
