Well done for making the effort. <br /><br />The only baking I've done since Christmas was a batch of brownies for the Jubilee weekend meeting with my children. In my defence, I have been kitchen-less for a few weeks, and the house hasn't been fit for guests since mid-February, but I'm not sure I'd have baked much even if I could have done so.Suellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04824039607448635437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-47948479990751424292022-06-04T22:09:19.490+01:002022-06-04T22:09:19.490+01:00Too dry I think - the nuts add bitterness and a bi...Too dry I think - the nuts add bitterness and a bit of oil as well as texture.

I had never heard of pithiviers before, but now they are firmly on my list of things to try.<br /><br />I know this post is from 2013, but I think you really hit on something with your suggestion of food / drink related subscriptions as gifts. Despite some very unsubtle hints I'm yet to receive a whisky subscription as a gift from my family! The cheese subscription thing is getting really popular now too, my local superstar cheese shop offers a 'cheese club' that looks amazing! https://slatecheese.co.uk/products/cheese-club-subscription Andrew Culturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09599168831777107512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2454805966928474735.post-75118746029867871092019-10-27T17:05:21.002+00:002019-10-27T17:05:21.002+00:00I've eaten guinea fowl a few times, but now I ...I've eaten guinea fowl a few times, but now I always spatchcock it and cook a one kilo bird for about 45 minutes.

I wonder if I should adapt the recipe as though it's half oranges and half lemons, they are sweeter now than raw calamondin but sharper than most sweet oranges...
