I use Lurpak..
botach .. You do not know of LURPAK ..
Umm .. I buy farmer's butter.. lurpak.. countrylife.. anchor .. und also Normandy imports too
I tend to buy the "spreadable mix" I do buy the "pure". I keep this on the marble in larder. BUT It ist then rock hard
und I find I have to place to warm so that I can butter knife to "slither a speadable"
I make many a sponge cake which use eggs und BUTTER
which I "cream" in tradional way.
Hand und wooden spoon.
For other cooking.. Tja. ...
I use lots of olive und other healthy oils .. herbs.. spices. FRESH home grown stuff und I think 80% bought from local farms here. I have large family. I do grow some stuff und our future tempo home .. I can also "do some "good life stuff" there.
But I have to buy in. I use full variety . from local market/farm shop to Booths etc.
i ACCEPT his apology but will add he should have been more dignified und not made such a silly comment in the first place?
I think .. I know .. I am decent -ish cook - I enjoy cooking. It relaxing und the enjoyment?
I cannot really describe what it feel like toi cook something which all who eat it .. say ist "marvellous!"
I am not perhaps as good as IG who has a potential career in foody stuiff .. whenever he retire.
Guy can cook. Really he can und it ist always a sublime
experience to me und Ted. OK we are biased here.
But . I have to say GOSH// absolute
all the same. Guy has cooked per his foody blogs in "cycling"
I am acclaimed in immediate family judgement for my poignant family photos. IG for his cooking .. Ted for his landscape photos.
dcb .. und weepy .. I hope to make you smile a lot.
I give some "vignettes" into our personal lives too. We care about others as we do ourselves
