  1. I was in a hurry anddecided to put the peppers in whole, previously I'd prepped them and cooked them sans seeds etc, then removed skin when cooled.  I'll try next time to do it like that again and see what difference it makes, they were good nice red peppers - from Waitrose!  I think leaving them whole might have been the problem.

  2. I was surprised how bitter my roasted red pepper soup was.  It had roasted red peppers, not particularly charred, with most skin and most seeds removed.  I'd made it before successfully.  What could be used if it happens again to reduce the bitterness?

  3. I've made horchata, Spanish style, using tiger nuts/chufa nuts on the weak side, will make it less so next time, but is acceptable if you want something watery and refreshing, plus a bit of other flavouring if required.  Talking of rosewater, there's also an orange flower water and kevra water.

  4. The recipe would normally have golden syrup in it, which would make it a bit different to a sugar cookie.  I've followed another recipe before and pig became a blob on baking.  Talking of sugar cookies, is there one that can be cut out but not chilled before rolling out?

  5. Hi, I used to make falafel ages ago, using beans.  I've decided to try and make some again but using chickpeas.  I can't remember if I ever put a bit of flour or baking powder or bicarb in the mix - should I?  I've ground up the chickpeas already with parsley and coriander leaves, onion and cumin and coriander powder with salt and pepper, and garlic, and it's in the fridge overnight to come together a bit, although I don't recall doing this years ago.  What would be best to do, add any of the powders or not?

  6. Eek - me too!  I've since used the no tab rinse and the blue tab rinse cycles only, until we get the red tabs.  The Rational advisor I contacted said to just keep using the original blue and red tabs until programming was sorted and confirmed that green tabs to be used with the "all-in-one" tabs.  Unfortunately, oven was installed back in 2017 when none of us were around and manual not to be found.

    I used to use the blue and red tablets for cleaning the Self-cooking Center - red in side "basket", blue in drawer.  A rep a year or so ago told us that they now had all in one tablets.  We bought them this week, tried them in the basket, then in the drawer, but the oven didn't clean.  Any helpful advice would be appreciated.
