What's the point of leaving it sit for 6 hours (insert question mark here as I can`t, my keyboard is fubar...)

I liked how he prepared the mushroom mixture. This sandwich is all about "the beef" and how to maximize its flavour. You would want to do it through umami rich foods which he did. The addition of the bone marrow, worcestershire sauce (the fermented anchovy that is present)and brandy reduction all enhance the "meatiness" of the beef really well. That is another reason I would use a mushroom like shiitake as the base instead of white button mushrooms since they are very rich in umami. Adding just a pinch of ground star anise would really kick the mushrooms mixture up to a whole another level as well. Not enough to taste but to maximize the umami that is going on in this sandwich.
I’m armed and I’m drinking. You don’t want to listen to advice from me, amigo.

What's the point of leaving it sit for 6 hours (insert question mark here as I can`t, my keyboard is fubar...) That's the time between "getting up early to go shooting" and lunchtime. Authenticity is everything. I imagine the sandwich would only taste exactly right if you had a bit of gun oil and powder residue on your hands, some kind of spaniel drooling over the possibility of sharing your sandwich, and a few freshly killed birds stuffed in various jacket pockets. I'll let you know in a couple of months, assuming that a pudelpointer is an acceptable substitute for a spaniel.

Authenticity is everything. So, after making this I have to go out and shoot something. I don't think my lanlord is going to appreciate that.
