\nBrownies. I believe I’ve mentioned them a few times here.\n<\/p>\n

\nThere is a bakery stall at Spitalfields market that sells the world’s best chocolate brownies. They sell various other good things as well – loaves of bread, cakes, pastries – but it’s the brownies I keep coming back for. These are three-star brownies, the kind that are worth a special journey. They are deceptively simple, with no nuts and no decorative chocolate sprinkles on the top, but they melt in the mouth and feel so richly chocolatey. (I would guess they also contain very generous amounts of butter.)\n<\/p>\n

\nI usually buy half a dozen, cut them in half (they’re big) and freeze them. When it’s time to eat one, I put one in the microwave so it gets all warm and squishy-soft and tastes even more. Delicious. London may not have any proper rye bread, but last I checked, Estonia didn’t have brownies like this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
