Back from visit to S.I.L.

So i was looking for how to turn the bag of leftover bits of salmon (from easter) into a fish stock and one of the sites suggested never to use salmon as it is too oily. Opinions anyone?
Ms C tidied the fridge last night and we are going to work our way through my bulk buy of cans and flours etc. With the fresh produce slowly trickling in from allotment, should be an interesting list of ingredients thrown together.
Out: tin chickpeas for hummous.

Salmon is definitely too oily to make fish stock. Stick with heads/bones from white fish for a good fish stock. Personally I wouldn't bother! I generally just use a veg stock cube or fresh veg stock if I've got any.

Lost the plot over the last few days
In:- delivered earlier this week, the skirt, 2 beef kidneys, beef liver and oxtail. A lovely person sold me the above for 15.00, so I spent an hour or so chopping and portioning and freezing. I know I have enough for loads of meals when the weather gets colder.
Out:- B of lamb, chicken breast, bacon, bread, smoked salmon - ops...mustn't forget the ice-cream.
Today I aim to make 2 salmon and asparagus flans with the leftover s salmon and a small handful of asparagus from my plot. Also 2 lemon cheesecakes as I need to use up some cream before it turns. One for the freezer and one for tomorrow1 -
In: frozen fruit
