    i wonder if any-one can help me - i have about half a pint of custard (made up) left and was wondering, if any of nice people out there could suggest what to do with it?
    usually, when i have any left, i make up a jelly, then put the custard on top to make a quick trifle, with what-ever frui9t is going spare..but we have already had trifle on sunday, so was after some fresh idea's?

    I have a pack of Morrisons value fish portions in butter sauce which I am going to make a fish pie with tonight. It says on the back 'may contain bones'. Is this a 'will probably contain bones' or a 'we've tried our best to remove them but we have to put this warning on the pack to cover our backs'? Thanks!

    We have had these before a few times, i think we have found a bone once or twice, so i think it's a cover our back comment

    It a warning 'we've done our best but just watch out kind of thing - there's generally no bones at all and you'd be very unlucky to find one, but please be careful and watch any little ones eating it.

    Hi Steph...

    Do you have a blender? if so tip your granulated sugar in there and blitz for a few seconds at a time until finer..not to long though or you will get icing sugar

    Oh and i would still use the butter...it should be fine

    Someone mentioned freezing sliced mushrooms recently. Do you need to do anthing else to them before putting them in the freezer?
