I bought ready-made lamb stew at Costco and it was terrible, but my brother-in-law who is in the food business suggested I put a slosh of red wine in it. What a difference! We were able to finish the stew and I did not have to throw it out. I still hate to throw food away.

I love mint sauce on lamb, completely makes the dish for me. But I agree, mint jelly would need to be used sparingly I imagine.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-13625112847710681122014-03-19T16:54:38.884-04:002014-03-19T16:54:38.884-04:00I'm not sure I would want mint jam or jelly.

Not quite sure why. Never eaten mint jelly, didn't know it was available in England, but then I haven't lived there for a while.<br /><br />My mother used to make cheese crisps when I was a kid, I have never been successful with them. Matt has made them though. They are very moreish.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-45266846570581220602014-03-19T08:53:56.233-04:002014-03-19T08:53:56.233-04:00Grin.

I don't like the bought versions. <br /><br />Parmesan crisps are so easy to make .. I use hard goats' cheese too ... and sometimes put in snippets of tomato ... but I eat too many - so don't remember to make them!!<br /><br />Cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-29875574039200221642014-03-19T03:23:02.010-04:002014-03-19T03:23:02.010-04:00Both the parmesan chips, and the piña colada shrim...Both the parmesan chips, and the piña colada shrimp look delicious!
