  • What is clotted cream & where can I find it?

    I made the buttermilk scones from Kitchen and they were heavenly. However, I just didn't feel like they were completely the same as the ones in the recipe as I didn't have the clotted cream to put on top. Do you have any ideas where I can find some and what exactly is clotted cream - it looks divine!!

  • Watery tomato sauce (Turkey Meatballs)

    I made the Turkey Meatballs from the "Kitchen" cookbook and found that the sauce turned out very watery. I had added the 2x cans of chopped tomatoes and the additional 2x filled cans of water to the sauce but I found it lacked in taste so I had to add some pasta sauce to thicken it! Can you suggest where I may have gone wrong? I made sure I added the correct amounts of the other ingredients but found I was adding a lot more salt to make it tastier. Im not sure if anyone else has experienced this problem before? Many thanks Carly
