What are you been cooking today

Kerry Beal, a TMX owner, currently blogging for the coming week on eGullet(post #9), posted this link to Pressure Cooked Citrus.

I thought some might find the idea of pressure cooked lemons interesting.

One of the comments on the Ideas In Food page contained a link to this site with what sounds like an excellent procedure and recipe.

Lemon Almond Pudding with puree from pressure cooked lemons.

Thanks H

Gee, I wish I could go onto auto pilot and get that much done...

Its 1.15 here too, so I think its a bit early for me to be making the salads for dinner. They might go yucky in the fridge

I'd make the beetroot one early to let the flavours fully develop Amy - it is always as nice the next day so I don't think you have to leave it until the last minute, although you can if you are running late.

Really? Awsome! Thanks for the tip JD! I'm actually going out this afternoon so its good to know I can get one of my salads ready and have it in the fridge for when I get home

[/quote] Amy, what is bronzy?

[Amy :-)]

Bronzy = Bronze Whaler Shark. It my favourite type of shark I like mine grilled personally, but the rest of the family like it panfried.

Its the one most commonly used in fish and chip shops.

[judydawn]

Funny how they call it Butterfish then Amy

Oh really? Maybe its just where I live then...

Thanks ladies - I'm not very versed in seafood. So basically the fish you get in take aways is shark.
