The Buck, Great Ayton , excellentWhere can you get a pork parmo these days?
The only place I know is The Buck in great ayton ,I like the pork but I find the breadcrumbs and cheese come away from the porkWhere can you get a pork parmo these days?
Ye I do a Parma at home rather than parmoI prefer the chicken Marashala vs the parmo, I wish more places would do that
Chicken parmo is the cheap option and only seemed to become a thing when take-aways started doing them. If you went to Bibi's or the Europa in the 70's, it was only pork.The only place I know is The Buck in great ayton ,I like the pork but I find the breadcrumbs and cheese come away from the pork
Obviously though, takeaways didn't start doing chicken parmos just because it was cheaper.Chicken parmo is the cheap option and only seemed to become a thing when take-aways started doing them. If you went to Bibi's or the Europa in the 70's, it was only pork.
How do you make your sauce?Ye I do a Parma at home rather than parmo
I replace the Bech with homemade marinara sauce
Depending on how quick I want, I will dice a shallots it and fry in butter until soft, I will then add minced garlic for 30 secondsHow do you make your sauce?
Do you want to explain why you think this.Obviously though, takeaways didn't start doing chicken parmos just because it was cheaper.
Simple, most pizza/parmo takeaways are owned and operated by people who for religious reasons will not handle pork.Do you want to explain why you think this.
I would argue that it played a huge part in the thought of take-away owners first offering chicken parmos. The original parmos were pork tenderloin, which is a more expensive cut of meat compared to chicken breast. It is all about offering fast food at affordable prices whilst maintaining quality and maximising profits.
I am sure a chef playing about with ingredients will have played some part but to me, a well cooked pork parmo is head a shoulders better than a chicken parmo but that is my choice and taste. Establishments wouldn't sell them if there wasn't a market for them.
Ohio, I would imagineWhere is OH?
That's a valid point but why do they sell pork parmos alongside the chicken?Simple, most pizza/parmo takeaways are owned and operated by people who for religious reasons will not handle pork.
I think you can connect the dots from there
Who is "they"?That's a valid point but why do they sell pork parmos alongside the chicken?
God forbid you get chorizo on your pizza.
