Re: Salty Ham - 7 years ago
Thankyou ladies , I soaked it in a large pot with two peeled potatatoes. Changed the water after 2 hrs and left it another hour before draining on a cake rack over night in the fridge. Put a glaze on it and cooked it for 1 hr. It was really moist and fabulous to eat . Have wonderful Christmas day.by ngaire - Foodlovers Food Talk

Re: Recipes that freeze well - 7 years ago
Hi Griz , besides the meals that are needed I had a neighbour who was very ill after chemo . She always asked me to make her a pavlova roll filled with cream and frozen raspberries. It wasnt sweet and the rasp were refreshing. I realise it wont be for all , my sister wanted raspberry fizzy drink from Mc Donalds ..... funny tho it sounds .by ngaire - Foodlovers Food Talk
