P-Middy Crème Brûlée

[joggerjayne]

Pips has done recipes for crème brûlée and minestrone in the current Waitrose mag.

Yummers!

Not that I'm going to try them, or anything. I know that I'd end up with bowls of curious liquid.

But if anyone else happens to try them, let me know what they're like, coz they look very jolly, and pretty scrummy.

[NoMercy]

I hate minestrone. Seriously, it's yuk.

Creme brunel would be worth a bash though...

I thought Pippa had got the sack from Waitrose and that Delia (who actually knows about cooking) was taking over from her.

I can't bring myself to call her P.Middy, yet :-(

I like minestrone if its a thin soup, with lots of big things in it.

There's a place called Pinnochio behind the Pavilion here, which does a really fab one. Huge pieces of veg and stuff in a thin liquid base.

Boxy ... it will come, it will come!

I hope they don't swap Pips for Delia. Delia is SO dull.

If it's good enough for Aog...........

It won't, JJ, she's got nothing going for her apart from her name - she doesn't cook, she just upfronts.... I'm with baldric on this one.

For sheer determination to persuade the computer to spell it properly, I'm giving Boxy the Best Answer.

Waitrose mag circulation shot up 17% after Pippa began writing for it

The Mail failed to predict its readers' actions again.

[EcclesCake]

Strictly speaking they are Eric Chavot's recipes as she joined him for a Masterclass!

[joggerjayne]

I suspect there's a big overlap between Mail readers and Waitrose customers.

The Mail is one of the three papers you can get for free if you have a My Waitrose card (along with the Guardian and the Telegraph)

Brule. Michael Brule?...Isn't he that there Canadian singer?

[boxtops]

Yes stewey, and he's very fond of creme bublé.

I think the Mail would prefer its readers to be shoppers at Waitrose rather than Morrisons, hence the deal. It seems despite writing for the Mail Jan Moir, not for the first time in her life, has misjudged her readers.

stewey, this may be the Canadian you're thinking of
