Hi there,

Fist i would like to say that I admire your work. I admire you work with the adolescents you are doing. Giving them a chance to become more than they have imagined in their lives. You are doing a great job, and i think you should be given the Nobel Prize.
I like to hear your opinion for one recipe, that i like to make and surprise everyone on my birthday. I have mushrooms, cheese and a shafran. I like to put the mushrooms in a pan, then put the cheese over them and bake them in the oven. At the end i like to put some shafran on them. Do you think it is a good combination?

Best Regards,

Hello

Did you mean Saffron??? How about trying one of my recipes for baked mushrooms?

Hi

Maybe a scilly question, but I'm allergic to cheese (not to all dairy but just to cheese, creame cheese). I'm wondering what I can use instead if I'd like to make 'pesto'.

Eleonoor

Hi Eleonoor

No probs, you can leave the cheese out, blitz up pine nuts, basil and olive oil and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice!

I've just made 2 litres of pesto to give as gifts and to stock up myself. It keeps fine in the fridge or freezer but looses some of its green-ness on storing. I don't add Parmesan when making (even if for immediate use). Those who want it can add it at the table, family style.

In addition to the "usual suspects" , I also use white walnuts in my recipe.

Hi
I brew homemade wine (normally from Kits),but i have just made and bottled some Sloe wine,(which will take a few months to mature).
My question is what food would accompany the Sloe wine ?
As this is the first time i have made sloe wine from the fruit and not from a kit , what food would accompany the Sloe wine ?
Any suggestions would be most welcome and appreciated.
Thank you
Jonty

Hi Jamie!
I have a small butcher's shop in northern Italy with my husband, and get wonderful pork meat from Mantova, but something you don't find in Italy is gammon. I would really like to know how I could make it, starting from the hind leg of the pork. I understand the raw meat has to be treated, but how? Thanks a lot! big_smile

Hi Jamie,

Cooking a large turkey for crimbo about 8 kg, do you or anybody else on this forum have any experience brining a turkey. I know it's done a lot in the US but why not over here? Does it really work?

Cheers in advance
Dan

Hi Jamie, please give me some pointers on roast beef (fresh beef, not the kind which was hanged for 21 days, or anything like that). I tried your recipe (roast beef with baby Yorkies meal, from 30 minutes meals) and i did everything by the book (didn't poke the meat, didn't press it, roasted it in the beginning to close the juices in) but still the meat was a bit .. chewy. Should I let it marinate in wine, soy sauce, lime juice, or anything like that before cooking it? Any answers is appreciated, thank you smile
