    Bread and butter pudding. Don't tell anyone, but I found some sealed single slice packs of Soreen fruit loaf with a bbe of 28th Feb (2013 I THINK..) when I tidied my Approved Foods stash... Two slices had gone manky, but the rest seemed fine....
    Waste not want not huh?
    Ah yes, a vintage bread and butter pudding recipe ;).

    I for one would eat it, as long as not manky, regardless of year :rotfl:.

  • Hi im new to slow cooking and I have Economy 7 heating. Would it be ok to cook the food in the slow cooker overnight using the cheap electric and then reheating it in the evening. Is it safe and has any done this?
  • A whole chicken, sitting on carrots, celery and onions.
    I love the way chicken keeps so moist in the S/C but do prefer to pop in in the oven for 10 mins or so when the roasties are nearly done so that the chicken skin crisps up a bit.

    I must investigate more pudding recipes for the S/C - I only ever seem to do casseroles or soups/stocks.:o

    as long as you chill it as quickly and as thoroughly as possible after you've cooked it, its fine.

    Fine to cook overnight using your cheap electric. Make sure you take it out of the pot and cool quickly before storing in the fridge. Reheat thoroughly on the hob, microwave or oven.
