SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN!!! (Wot do I do with it???)

would youu believe that I did this for the first time at the weekend! Hope you're not squeemish! Try GFL Piri Piri (fantastic) cut down both sides of the back bone and take it out completely, best way, sharp kitchen scissors) then turn it over and press down firmy (you'll hear the bones crunch so be warned) Char grill as far as you dare without burning on both sides then finish of in a moderate oven, definately a winner!

Hummus

Does anyone know if you can freeze home made Hummus? By the looks of the ingredients don't see why not.

Coleslaw

I don't think any one really minds! for really creamy coleslaw, use equal amounts of 'simply delicoius mayonnaise', mixed with salad cream and add some double cream, just adjust the amounts (start with a little) depending on how much veg you are shredding, p.s don't add too much onion, other wise it becomes quite strong and will detract form the creamyness

yellow squash

12! squash looks like a deflated ballon in the shape of a light bulb, as the name suggests it's a yellowy orange colour and about the sizr of a large aubergine, I think it comes fom the marrow/pumpkin family. Available in most supermarkets Sainsburys/Waitrose just look in the fresh veg dept! Good luck, are you sure you need 12 though, sounds like an awful lot!

What with steak?

Chrisy,

by far the most imaginative way of cooking the good old spud is Bluxom's? Choux Potato Kiev (just do a search on this site). Don't bother frying them, just whack them in an oven on 200c for 1/2 hour or untils they look like large golden profitte rolls. Lovley and runcy on the bottom, taste combination of Garlic doug balls, choux pastry and mash, the liquid garlic centre is subline (exactly as the title suggests, remind you of a chicken kiev. btw make the potaote quite dry or they tend to loose their shape, and the butter leaks out!

Sea Salt vs Rock Salt

Hi Debbie, have to admit, the best salt i have ever tasted was reviewed on GFL, I had the oppertunity to try some at the Good Food Festival Earls court at Christmas, Haleon? It's Welsh, and cost about £4.99 for 500g, but before you balk at the price, it is well woth it. You can get it from Waitrose. They also import the finest black pepper corns with a real kick to them!
