i dont eat a lot of fried food, but sometimes really fancy something deep fried. Is there such a thing as a small deep fat fryer big enough for 1 or 2 portions that is suitable for very occasional...
I had the shock of my life in Asda today. A packet of Mr Kipling's Apple pies are now £2.35. I can remember paying a pound for these. So pudding tonight is just vanilla ice cream....
I bought a can of Tesco Dairy Spray Cream and have been using it. It is still half full if I shake it but nothing is coming out. What is the best way for me to get the rest out?...
Does a whole chicken freeze from the inside out, or outside in? I put one in the freezer about an hour and a half ago, and now the Mr has decided he wants me to cook it for sandwiches. It's only a...
Hey there Conchita! Would you say, in your expertise, that last nights dinner was for the social underclass? The kind of person who shops at Iceland and figures it all comes out the next day anyway,...

Can, or have people (like ye olde whalers etc) or Japanese folk ever cooked with whale oil? What's a fried egg taste like, done in whale oil? (I'm not advocating the hunting of whales btw, I mean dead...
Just curious. In the past both garlic I've grown and garlic I've bought has been crushable. However garlic bought from 2 different supermarkets recently have proved very reluctant to pass through the...
Last night we were talking about putting rose wine in the Sodastream. Has anyone ever done this? I know it wouldn't turn out like traditionally fermented wine - we were just wondering and having a...
