    Crisps

    Hi. I used to love seabrook, smiths and golden wonder crisps. Then walkers bombarded the telly with advertising and the next thing, they'd taken over the shelves. I'd normally get seabrooks from poundland, but found in the last few weeks, they weren't as well stocked. Now I see that, after what must be decades, another brand of crisps is being advertised - Seabrooks! I can only expect that this means I will be able to get them from anywhere before long. The question is, why, after so long, is this brand of crisps being advertised?

    Recipe Bloopers

    I had a book with that clarification.
  3. Hi, what can I do to a carton of apple juice to make it taste like cider? Want to make chicken cider recipe with no cider or any alcohol.
  4. Thanks. I'll try the large Rose Bakery one first. Anna Olson does individual steamed carrot cakes. Has anybody tried making carrot cake in a kugelhopf/bundt tin?
  5. Hi, I'm having difficulty finding a yummy carrot cake that is not layered with cream cheese (on what planet did that start?), or layered at all. I'm sure that years ago, in the UK anyway, a carrot cake was a cake, possibly with a topping, but no layers. I've never taken to the vegetable and cheese sandwich version.
  6. Did you buy the Dina Begum book? I'm thinking of either that one or this one https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0CLSRZ75M/ref=sspa_dk_detail_0?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B0CLSRZ75M&pd_rd_w=IMrQ3&content-id=amzn1.sym.84ea1bf1-65a8-4363-b8f5-f0df58cbb686&pf_rd_p=84ea1bf1-65a8-4363-b8f5-f0df58cbb686&pf_rd_r=DT85NQ5BJF42CYD1Y4DX&pd_rd_wg=aXO69&pd_rd_r=83971d2a-bdf7-47d8-8fb8-e3a5ace44bd9&s=books&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWw Has anybody else got an opinion on them?
  7. No Myer's in local supermarket, Lamb's it shall have to be.
  8. These are the rums I can get to make a Jamaican rum cake, which one would work best? Malibu Caribbean White Rum with Coconut Flavour, Bacardi Coconut Rum Spirit Drink, Lamb's Navy Dark Rum, Bacardí Carta Blanca Rum, Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold, Havana Club 3 Year Old White Rum, Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum, Havana Club Añejo Especial Golden Rum. I've got some dried mixed fruit (raisins, sultanas, currants and mixed candied peel), can dried chopped dates and apricots be used? I might be able to sort-of-candy fresh or tinned pineapple.
  9. I don't think I'll get one of those. We have a thermomix, but that was donated, extra thankfully with two jugs.
  10. It's for someone who can only eat pureed food. There's a tendency to hold and move about the mouth before swallowing and I thought it might be nicer for them to have the chicken without anything else affecting the flavour, just like we might eat a nice bit of cooked chicken without lots of other flavourings on it.
  11. Er... no. But, it does now make me think of the pestle and mortar, probably the granite type.
  12. It's to do with mouth-feel really, but also it would look nicer as it normally has a split sort of look.
  13. That bit of equipment was on the cards a while ago. It might be time to bring it up again.
  14. That looks brill. How much would something like that cost? A quick look doesn't show prices.
  15. Literally a puree, a smooth moist paste, nothing special otherwise.
