Re: how many OXO's
The stock cubes I used (too lazy to make my own) are 1 to every 450ml water, personally never used them with pasta, will have to give it a try!

Almost 1 cube each is a bit OTT in food I think.

Re: how many OXO's
heres a tip too:-
To make great tasting, low fat mash, add an OXO cube to the water of cooking potatoes or any vegetable, then mash with reserved cooking liquid instead of milk or butter.

Re: how many OXO's
crumble an OXO into baked beans when you are heating them. Yummy!
it should be 1 OXO for each 1/2 pint of stock IIRC. so based on 2 pints of liqued 4 sounds about right. However I would say that you get better flavour if you can shove a few roasted bones and a few herbs in for the duration of the cooking. |

Re: how many OXO's
Coming home tonight, tuned into Chris Evans (no comments please re. Radio 2
), He reported had a new life changing toy ... a fat separator quicker than the normal ways. You know the problem with creaming off the fat from the stock I suppose .. and said it was very pretty too ... Me, I never cook a joint of meat in fat anyway, just water, which always seems extremely delicious after adding Bisto .. oh, hek, is this a dirty word on this thread. ? Stated that the secret of gravy was the Brown Sauce ?? .. well, will give it a try. |
