Started today making vegetable concentrate, really worked well.
Then made lemon cake, didn't work at all. Had a look on baking powder pack, expired 1998. Quick trip to supermarket, then made another one. The best cake I have ever made, so light, brilliant.
Then onto tonight, made mushroom risotto. Never made risotto before, but have tasted lots. This one definitely the best.
Still have half left (only 2 of us) what is the best way to reheat without it becoming dry or gluggy? Made the full quantity, next time will only make half.
Now to work out what to make tomorrow!

SueJen, sounds like you're having some great successes.

Make sure you check out the recipe for baking powder - very economical and easy, and doesn't have any fillers or preservatives etc.  It's in the EDC cookbook in the Basics section (from memory).

There is so much to learn! But this is really fun, cant seem to do anything but cook at the moment, will have to get back to work soon. Just as well I work at home. Cant wait til weekend to try things.
