Tesco finest Rhubarb and Custard Crumble

At first when I saw this Rhubarb and Custard crumble, I thought it was just the usual Rhubarb crumble but then when I looked closer it was actually rhubarb and custard.
It was a bit expensive for a fiver but in the end I decided to give it a go.
Labelled as smooth Madagascan vanilla custard with rhubarb & stem ginger compote topped with oat crumble.
I was a bit apprehensive about the ginger but rhubarb and ginger is a thing because Waitrose also do a rhubarb ginger crumble while ASDA has a rhubarb ginger drink.
It turns out the custard is not uniformly distributed but on the sides of the crumble.
As for the taste, I felt that the stem ginger compote stole the show sadly and I couldn't quite taste the rhubarb.
The sweet custard could only be tasted when you ate the edges of the crumble.
Overall, it wasn't bad in taste but a little disappointing as you could taste the the rhubarb and custard which is meant to be the star of the show.

Kyoeiseicha Morihan Sencha, Houjicha and Wakocha teas

I got these Morihan Sencha and Houjicha samples a while ago so forgot to post these until now.
The sencha was very pleasant with a grassy taste.
The houjicha was really nice as it was nutty and sweet so adding some maple syrup to it took it the another level.


morihan houjicha:
This was definitely a good quality houjicha because the leaves had a lovely roasted sweet cocoa smell.
It was smooth and aromatic.
Adding some maple syrup by made better gave it a lovely sweet kick.

morihan wakocha:
This was definitely a good quality black tea.
You can think of it as a nice breakfast tea although there were some interesting sour notes at the end if you leave it for too long.

Dressed Crab by Seafood & Eat It

The Dressed crab by Seafood & Eat It are delicious brown and white crab meat in a Crab shell just like the ones at the seaside stalls which are getting scarce.
The Seafood & Eat It range is amazing, you can buy white crab meat, brown crab meat, a mix and they even have my favourite potted shrimp as well as potted crab with shrimp.

M&S salted caramel overnight oats

This was the best overnight oats I ever tasted.
I literally felt like I was eating a homemade Angel Delight butterscotch dessert especially the butterscotch taste even though it was salted caramel.
The texture was airy yet thick and sticky.
The cocao nibs gave it that sophisticated touch.
The texture of the oats were not as rough and chewy like other overnight oats which feel like stringy chicken.
Definitely getting this again when I need a sweet filling fix.

Samboy BBQ crinkle cut crisps

Samboy, old school style Aussie crisps.
Bbq crinkle cut crisps.
Tasted like our English roast chicken and spring onions crisps.
Overall, I was glad it wasn't too sweet like the Asian ones.

Clive's Creamy Mushroom Pie

I don't often bump into products by Clive's but happened to see them at Waitrose so got the Creamy Mushroom pie to try.
It is labelled as wholemeal pastry crust filled with chestnut mushrooms and herby tarragon sauce.
It was definitely quite a different experience being wholemeal pastry but I found the mushroom filling too salty and lacked umami.
Overall, it wasn't bad.
