hello, has anybody tried this?
i know its very cheap from there and wasnt at full price, but im wondering if the resulting bread would just turn out like the cheap white bread from the supermarket before i buy this and bake it
TIA

I've got some but haven't baked with it yet. However i have used the other large bags of pastry mix, cake mix etc from the McDougalls range at Approved Foods and they have all been great.

Does anyone else think that the postage charged by Approved Foods is very high? I have placed one order with them: the goods came to approx £10 and the postage was approx the same.

Does anyone have any good uses for oranges?

I have about 6 I bought a while back when I was in a fruity mood and I just do not fancy them. I have had to remove two from the bowl and into the bin as they have started to go mouldy. I don't want to waste anymore.

I have not got a juicer so I cannot do that and my only blender thing is a small one with a tiny (most ineffective) blade at the bottom.

Any ideas pleaseeeee??

MC did you change the postage in the dropdown list? From memory its set to over £10 to the highlands but to Yorks it should be just over £5 IIRC

I'm making my first ever chutney now, and the recipe just says "simmer until thick" - but I'm not sure how thick it should be!!

Its reduced down quite a lot and the chunks of veg are visible in the pan and its starting to catch quicker on the bottom, is it ready?!? Is it?!

Help!

EDIT - I've taken the plunge and potted it now, I've got about a kilo when the recipe state about 1.8kg - is this a sign that I cooked it for too long? There was probably a lot of wastage after I weighed the apples as they were lots of little ones but not that much! Any guidance for next time on when to know its ready would be good as the recipe is so vague
