What's new

Food anyone?

I remember when I came on one of my families many trek home visits (this is the fifth and final visit, dad couldn't decide which country he loved best although I think you know by now which one we ended up in!!!), we were going through London and emblazoned on wall advert was a baked bean advert. Someone had added to it and it read Heinz beans means farts. Still remember that to this day. Lol.

We are watching Country Show Cook off on BBC2.


The food is glorious. I loved the Devon seafood competition.

In the first cook off up North in Glendale, the chefs made fruit tarts. They made a mistake, per local definition of a fruit tart. The locals tarts are pies! The locals called the fruit tarts, without pastry toppings, flans!

I'm wondering why a half-loaf ciabatta that I didn't get around to eat became soft again after I put it in a Ziplock bag overnight. I thought my husband might smash it for bread crumbs, but just now I squeezed it and it's much softer than before. All I did was put it in a Ziplock.

Maybe there was moisture trapped deep in the apparently dry loaf. Putting it in a ziplock bag would have allowed what moisture there was to diffuse throughout the loaf, without evaporating into the open air.

That would be likely. When I put it in the Ziplock, I squeezed out the air, zipped and left overnight, and that's it.
 
Put it in a tin. Cookies in tins, cakes in plastic. In my case Tupperware. Love that stuff. I was a manager of five ladies once with a car to go with it. Those were the days. I was useless of course, I have two or three cupboards of the stuff. I couldn't bear to part with it. You are supposed to sell it for profit. Lol

A Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR) song is playing in the background. Care to guess what's cooking?

Opening a chocolate bar, something I rarely crave and have maybe a couple of times a year. Makes me think of Willy Wonka and his chocolate factory and oompa loompas.
