    Scientists hope treaty can mitigate climate change

    Praxius that is hardly a scientific argument. You have no scientific basis on which to tell us that the IPCC scientists are wrong, deluded, whatever....and certainly none to suggest they are being bribed. I am not a meteorological scientist either but I do have a degree in mechanical...

    Scientists hope treaty can mitigate climate change

    There is a broad and overwhelming scientific consensus that climate change is occurring, caused in large part by human activities such as burning fossil fuels, and if left un-checked will likely have disastrous consequences. Furthermore, there is solid scientific evidence that we should act now...

    Scientists hope treaty can mitigate climate change

    The significance of this article is that the scientists are saying that there is no longer any doubt that climate change is real, and that human activity is causing it.

    making your own stock

    There is usually a fair amount of meat left on the ham bones, and before I start the soup I remove any obvious fat. The peas have to cook most of the day anyway, so they may as well simmer with the ham bones. This is maybe a lazy habit I've gotten into but I'm unlikely to change thirty odd...

    making your own stock

    Funny. I've never made pea soup using stock. I usually dump the ham bones, peas, water, and all the ingredients into the soup pot and let it simmer all day. You only have to take out the bones and maybe cut the ham into smaller pieces, skim off the fat, and the soup is made and ready to...

    making your own stock

    Did you use green peas herman? When I make pea soup I generally use the yellow-coloured peas. I think the taste is identical but the colour is a little more attractive.

    making your own stock

    Occasionally, usually with beef, I will boil the stock right down to the point where I can get it all into an ice cube tray. After freezing these cubes are like little blocks of translucent rubber. I store them in a plastic bag in the freezer door. I use them to add more flavour to a sauce...

    making your own stock

    Making beef stock is much the same. My butcher saves the larger bones and he runs them through the band saw so they fit in the stock pot. I brown the bones in the oven before I start the stock. I include a few bay leaves, an onion, a few carrots, and sometimes a small head of cabbage with...

    making your own stock

    Sounds good gang. I don't think you can have too much chicken stock. I have a large stock pot....Actually it's a canning kettle that I use to make stock. Every chicken bone that passes through our kitchen spend some time in the stock pot. I save all bones in a large plastic bag in the...

    Fish and Chips....I love 'em.

    I'm going to make half the recipe since there is only the two of us. Your comment about the corn starch is noted. I'm hoping I'll be able to tell if it needs a bit of firming up. I'll let you know how they turn out.

    You would have laughed if you had seen the mis-matched bunch of junk knives we had before we got the Henkels. The best thing about good knives is how they take and hold an edge........Nothing worse than a dull knife.
