I’ve got an induction hob, would much rather have a gas hob like I did in a previous house. I just find it’s easier to control the heat on a gas hob. Agree on fan electric ovens, though. I used to love being able to light my fag on the gas hob. I'm nearly 100 days off them now, so it's probably best I've got an induction! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Not a great baker but it was freezing yesterday and I had eggs to use up. Creme patt tasted really good but was a bit too thin to use as a topping. Shortbread was the best I have made, by total fluke. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Was supposed to be garlic and chili linguini but I didn't have any linguini so used spaghetti instead. Also added some mushrooms I needed to use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) £4.75. Banchory can take a flying f**k to itself. Edit : okay actually, I take that back. I was upset due to it coming in a box and looking like it was a Warburton roll with no stability. It was excellent, every component miles better than a run of the mill quick bite place. £9.25 for a coffee and a roll is steep but it was superb. Ride coffee house. Very, very decent.

DA Baracus Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Chinese chicken stir fry type thing Onions weren't chopped as I chucked them in the mini blender with the garlic and ginger. Presentation isn't the best to say the least but it's tasty. The 'sauce' is nice and sticky. Mini Toblerone for dessert. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I normally use fresh garlic and ginger but I see you've got the easy stuff. How good is it compared to fresh? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How good is it compared to fresh? It's pretty good! It comes in a white wine vinegar though so whilst you can fry that off, if you're adding to a sauce then it might impact the flavour more than you want. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I normally try to do with ginger is buy a large amount from the Chinese supermarket, blitz it in the food processor, then put it into ice cube trays and freeze it. It's then easy to use a cube at a time, but maybe I should give the easy stuff a try instead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
