Evenin' all. Popping in and out again. Just got to finish TTF. Have not stopped since 7am..........sheesh. Day of Rest? Don't you believe it! Back later.

And you dont need to par boil spuds....peel, chop, wash, dry and cover in olive oil

....bung em in the hot oven, turn down after 10 minutes and then sprinkle with salt...turn back up after 40 minutes to crisp off


Sighs........its not difficult



And if you want to know how to cook a real Yorkshire pud....

And I see Fanny is too drunk to add

..bliss

Ginny


Would love a fail safe real Yorkshire pudding recipe

I can cook anything BUT not yorkshire puds

I like the big light puffy crispy ones

Help me please

Ginny bring this here

If someone had posted something that wasn't nice...
you'd blow out the thread & it would stop them from deleting
as the edit & delete button used to be on the right hand side

Sometimes I par boil - other times as you said - but sprinkle with herbs - not salt -

I make a sea salt and herb mix - 30% salt 70% herbs - and put in grinder - when cooking for other people add that mix

Also on my tomatoes and onion balsamic vinegar salad

Otherwise no salt - don't have a tolerance for it

Quiet innit?


Can I hear singing?


Can't be Fans.....too tuneful.


My Yorkshire puds are quite good but I use guesswork!

Hi all.


I think the cut we call baron of beef is much smaller than you're thinking of. We can even get one that is small enough for the two of us, giving us 1 hot meal and 2 cold ones.



We're having some glorious Fall weather ...... bright blue skies and sun. It is getting down to 4 or 5C overnight and upto 13C or so during the day.


We eat out most Friday evenings at one of two local places. Last Friday we went to the "bistro" and they had terducken on the menu.

This is the latest thing here. One local butcher was advertising it for Thanksgiving last weekend, and wanted 2 days notice because it is so time consuming to make it. The bistro was making their own.

It is a chicken stuffed inside a duck stuffed inside a turkey, with layers of stuffing between each one. The birds are cut open down the breast and all the bones removed, then the turkey is laid flat, a layer of stuffing placed over it, the duck laid flat on top of that, a layer of stuffing, the chicken laid flat on top, a layer of stuffing spread on top. Then they are either rolled up or formed into a semblance of a turkey.

I would have loved to have tried it, but wasn't quite hungry enough! It wasn't a bad price ................ $20 (ca £12 or so) for the meal with a potato and yam mash and veggies, or $25 for their special 3 course meal.



The flooring looks good ..... but it's one of those things that looks different colours in different lights, or where there are shadows, and is almost impossible to photograph to get a true indication!!



Our friend's Celebration of Life is on Tuesday afternoon. We came home on Friday to find a message on the answer machine from last weekend's party girl to say "can we make a deal for Tuesday? I'll phone you at a later time".

She still hasn't phoned ....... but I know they will undoubtedly be coming over for the memorial.

I think what she is going to suggest is that they come to the house and then we combine cars ................ we are actually between the ferry terminal and where the memorial will be held, so it makes perfect sense, and we have done it many times before.

I'm just going to have to say "Fine. Great idea. Just close your eyes as you walk through the living and dining rooms. And please use our bathroom, not the guest one"!!!!!

Bit hard for me to follow then Cyns

Jules...youve lost me hun?

I said I was losing it a while back

Ok no worries

It was just the 'over' posting that sent the thread orf the page!

Still, me and thee seem to be the only ones that get it!

I can't make yorkshire pud to save my life!

so I gave up trying years ago.


I do know that the flour over here is different ..... it's made from different strains of wheat than in the UK and Europe ............... and think that might have something to do with the fact that no yorkshire pud I've had on this side of th Atlantic tastes quite right!

Ok if someone being nasty on a thread then someone would blow the thread out, like you did with all the dots

The person the swore couldn't them come back and delete the post cos the edit & delete things were on the right and side & they couldn't see or get to them

does that make sense now...if not then i'll just take a pistol to my nut

Sylvia

Sorry even as a meat eater I think that recipe is gluttony

It is not for me -

Julie
