I also inadvertently baked myself - too much sun at a country fair :(

amiri1, Dec 4, 9:57am
Caramel cream pie, chocolate eclairs and a chocolate pudding, all were experimental and all seemed to be appreciated and all were low carb. :)

Here's an easy one that makes three - Ginger Loaf (Eat one, freeze one, give one away!) I also have a nice one that makes one if you would like me to post it.

Mix in a large bowl –

2 cups boiling water
250 g cubed butter

add
2 cups sugar
¾ cup golden syrup
2 tsp baking soda
……..stir (using a large whisk is helpful)

add
4 tsp ginger
2 tsp mixed spice
2 tsp cinnamon
4 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder

Divide into 3 loaf tins (eat one, freeze one, give one away!)
¼ hour @ 180 C then ½ hour @ 160C
Keep testing until skewer comes out clean.
Texture better the next day.

We're shearing next week, so I had a good bake up today. I made double batches of everything and most of it is in the freezer: Chocolate Banana Cake, Apricot Cake, Raisin buns and bread.

lizab, Dec 5, 9:08am

lindylambchops1, Dec 8, 7:25am
Great pics!Hope the Fete went well.Could you please share both those recipes?Thanks!

elliehen, Dec 8, 10:47am
Did it have a name?Was it a friend, or an acquaintance-type goat?Did you cull it and kill it yourself?

I am genuinely interested in how flesh-eaters approach their meat.

amiri1, Dec 8, 11:58am
I'm baking some salmon tomorrow for lunch. I'm going to call it Fred because I didn't know his/her original name. I do regret sometimes that we ate Porkcelia (try and guess what type of animal she was!) but I was a kid at the time, she was a yummy friend. The home kill guy did it.
We also had chickens but I gave up naming them in the end. Must've been another homekill guy because dad denied he'd done it. I watched it though and dad is the person in my mind with the hatchet.

I always found goat too, hmmmm, bitter I think (it's been a while) but edible if you're camping and that's all there is!

I normally approach my meat from downwind so it doesn't get away, fillets sound like they can run fast! :)
