I am just a home cook who has rejected convenience food and accepted and embraced the idea that you can do it far better yourself and actually, it really doesn’t take so much effort. I have a couple of teenagers who assure me that they really do prefer the generic pre-made supermarket Bolognese sauce to my freshly made efforts. But my wife – who, incidentally, is an excellent cook – seems to appreciate my efforts. And the real point is, a long way from Masterchef levels of dedication as I may be, I do take great pleasure from preparing something that I, at least, really enjoy.
Please dive in and join in discussions. You say you are from Bolton - its a good idea to put your location under your image (your image is a ? at the moment). There are a lot of UK cooks here but also American, Australian, Thailand, Italy (to name a few), so it can get confusing when discussing ingredients. Anyway, its very easy to do. See
