Haha, aaaah, yeah I’ve got the biggest jar of demerera purchased by accident when I did an online shop on sainsburys last year (didn’t check the weight of the bag) don’t know how best to use it up. Fingers crossed it works! I had to replace a few ingredients with my banana bread yesterday and thankfully it turned out fine.

@colon_closed_bracket would you recommend the dishoom cookery book?

I swap different brown sugars for each other and granulated for caster all over t shop. I’m sure things could be better with the “correct” one but never causes any fundamental issues

Golden Brown
Texture Like Sun
Lays me down
With my mind she runs
Regular Brown
Is dark and thick
Used in tasks requiring
A molasses kick
Demer-era
Is darker still
Has crunchy texture
Because of crystals.

I got a proper full eight hours sleep last night but I already feel exhausted and want a nap :yawning_face:

Yes! The Salli Boti (slow cooked lamb curry) is probably the best curry I’ve ever made. The Chicken Berry Britannia is amazing too. Feel like I’ve barely scratched the surface of the book but yes, it’s properly lovely. Nicely laid out too with some general writing about the background behind the cafés

I was exhausted after a quite full sleep with a big headache in the middle of it that woke me up for an hour. Beans on toast seems to have sorted me out for the time being tho :+1:
