I'm in love with a band call At The Gates.
I'd never seen nor heard them before this weekend...just one of those bands that escaped me as they tend to do.
My god...

Ingredients
150g dried pears roughly chopped and soaked overnight in 120ml strong cold Earl Grey tea, 120g butter, 120g soft dark brown sugar, 2 eggs, 150g SR flour, tsp baking powder, Pinch of salt, tsp ground ginger
Method
Heat the oven to GM4/180'C/350'F. Grease and line a 1lb-loaf tin.
Cream together the butter and the sugar until light and fluffy and beat in the eggs.
Sift together the flour, salt, baking powder and ground ginger. Fold into the cake mixture. Mix in the pears and the cold tea and turn into the loaf tin.
Bake for 45 minutes. If necessary, cover with foil to prevent the crust from browning too much. Cool in the tin for 10 minutes and then turn on to a wire rack to cool completely.
Ice with a ginger water icing.
I'm still perfecting the chocolate one and trying out various recipes for it but I will post it on my journal when I get the perfect one!
What a treat to discover At the Gates, I'm pretty out of metal these days but I used to be obsessed with them when I was first getting into metal and playing guitar. The first three albums are great, you will really enjoy them. Notice how all the shitty metalcore bands that are out these days have copied their guitar riff style a lot!
