| 706 | Just about to make a batch of fudge... And wanted to add Cointreau to the recipe (as was suggested in the book). I've read a few recipes on line that have said any liquid added to a fudge recipe have almost "set" the fudge on the spot before they've had a chance to pour it out, and that the texture has become very, very grainy. Does anyone think that by adding the Cointreau at the "add condensed milk stage" would maybe not make it grainy? My own fault for starting this so late in the piece, and don't want to waste good ingredients also. The recipe I've found makes no mention of the fudge going grainy with the addition of liquid, nor a good time to add it if your going to...HELP! Just about to have a minor attack...Thanks for your help, *Angie x thefockers - 2008-12-24 17:11:00 |

| 708 | Hi Everyone.. *waves Hi to Tracey* :-) Hi Angie.. how did you get on with your fudge.. I hope you found a way to make it how you wanted to.. juliewn - 2008-12-29 16:12:00 |
| 709 | I made a great Berry Jelly for Christmas to have with Pavlova, etc.. I filled a lovely glass bowl with a mix of raspberries, blueberries, blackberries and boysenberries.. then made a raspberry and a boysenberry packet jelly as per the pack.. mixed them together then left it to cool. I poured the cooled mix over the berries, covered it and left it to set overnight. Some of the berries were showing above the jelly slightly - which looked great.. The sweetness of the jelly was lessened by the tartness of some of the berries.. and this made a tasty jelly with lots of fruit, that looked great with pavlova, etc.. I'll definitely make it again.. Hope you all had a great Christmas.. :-) juliewn - 2008-12-29 16:18:00 |
| 710 | Hi Julie... :o) that sounds great, your jelly, simple but effective, love it, will pinch that one thanks :o) jenna68 - 2009-01-03 08:29:00 |
| 711 | hi everyone! every blessing for the new year and praying that your christmas was a good one. had to share!! - we tried a combination of nigella and jamie's turkey recipes this christmas and man oh man what a taste sensation!! the best turkey i have ever cooked in over 20 years, moist and juicy and cooked right through no prob, brown and tender - so doing it again this year!! blessings all for the day! timetable - 2009-01-06 07:35:00 |
| 712 | Timetable Did you soak your turkey in brine, like Nigella. You leave it in a cool place for up to three days. Not sure if I am brave enough to give it a try! novices - 2009-01-06 16:14:00 |
| 713 | yep did it the nigella way with great flavour and lovely colour. very moist. lucky that we have a cool laundry downstairs and had it in a tub with a secure lid and soaked it for 2 days. would not have done it if we did not have a cool place to leave the tub. give it a go if you can - its worth every bit of extra effort! blessings timetable - 2009-01-08 09:22:00 |
