Dr Gloom 19744 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 If you can’t find yeast, get a sourdough starter on the go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 38586 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Turned out ok, considering I’ve got neither a deep-fat fryer or a thermometer so it was all done in big pan, old skool. Had a genuine CT moment with the batter- no lager, (and am I baallz wasting good beer on batter), so chucked leftover Prosecco in Worked a treat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meenzer 13989 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 We've got a bottle of... sherry? fuck knows, something red and alcoholic anyway, that a friend brought back from Kosovo and decided to bestow upon us. Even the remaining drinker in the household has deemed it only borderline drinkable - think Chinese rice wine, only more so - so I've been trying to use it up in cooking without it ruining whatever it touches. So far it's worked quite nicely in a bolognese sauce but it gave a chilli a weird aftertaste. I'm considering deploying it as drain cleaner instead. Any takers on here before I do so?

Monkeys Fist 38586 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Do you eat pork ( I know )? Would it be any good in a Chinese Sticky pork marinade? (I’m going to stop now before I go full Finbarr ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, other than putting a plate down and cutting around it as you do with pastry but then it would have been too small. Kids reckoned I should throw and stretch it but we all know how that would have panned out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
