I just had the most beautiful salad .
I went back to a dressing My Mum and Granma used to thrill us with, and so simple . ----------------- Half a teaspoon of Mustard Powder a bit less of salt .... Mix well with about half a cup of condensed milk ( a bit less for one ) Add about the same of Vinegar ( apple cider i used ) Mix it up and put it in the freezer 15 minutes . _------------------- With the lettuce tasting magic , The boiled egg , Ham, Tomato Banana and whatever else you fancy ...... DELICIOUS ...... ------------------------------------------------------------------ Here's where the lovely ladies can enlighten us Hermits , into some easy 10 minute meals .... For one or two . I'm getting sick of the frozen ones from the supermarkets .( delivered ) AND PLEASE don't mention Donald Trump. PT ... Your diet appreciated as Ive gained 7K in recent times. |

Probably my favourite & introduced to it by Mum who was a wonderful cook & an advocate of US chef Robert Carrier. Ingredients for 2: 4 - 6 lamb kidneys 1 shallot/spring onion 10g butter 100ml dry white wine 75ml double cream 2 tsp Dijon mustard Cut down the length between the lobes to separate it into two parts. Turning each part over, cut down either side of the white fat and connective tissue and remove it completely. Slice crossways up to .5cm thick. Peel and chop the shallots very finely. Heat a heavy-bottomed sauté pan until quite hot. Add a film of oil and then the unseasoned kidneys and sauté them on a very high heat, turning them from time to time until they are seared on every surface. Tip the kidneys out of the pan into a colander or sieve so that they can drain. They are definitely best when kept quite pink. Without cleaning the pan, melt half the butter in it and add the shallot and the thyme. Stew the shallot gently until soft and then add the wine. Reduce this by two-thirds and then add the cream. Bring to a boil and simmer gently for a few moments until it reaches a good sauce consistency. Whisk in the mustard before adding the drained kidneys, seasoning them well and reheating them without letting the sauce boil. Swirl in the remaining butter and then serve. From start to finish it takes me 15mins max - I think Cheap as chips too. |

Only had the old stoves, wood fed , small as my undies "bulge" and they were miracle's for their achievements in the kitchen. Won them more hearts than the bedroom. I've been buying the peppermint lollies , 25 packs at a time . Full of sugar . I think that's where the weight has come from. I might re start smoking to give up the peppermints. |

Not at all, needs to be agenda driven, vicious, superfluous, already covered in other threads. This thread may be slow but is harmless and has potential to be interesting
