What produce/ingredients did you buy or obtain today? (2018-2022)

[Yorky]

It's either those, or solid stock cubes now.

I use either beef OXO (of which I've just recently ran out (order placed for 24 more @ £5.00)) or Bisto powder/granules.

I use these for gravies, stock cubes for soups.

I would love to use nothing but homemade stock, but that is just not practical. I get good results with Better Than Bouillon, so I use it.

As there are only two of us and one doesn't eat beef, homemade stock is not very practicable for me.

It's just the broth.

I don't think I can get that here - if its mutton broth, I'd certainly buy some.

I'm feeling Krapow because of the side effects of the flu jab. Mrs B put the stock pot on with chicken backs and veal bones for soup and stock. She is the stock queen. I would use cubes but she refuses to let me. She makes stock without any seasoning then reduces it by about 70% and freezes it in ice cube trays.

A Thai guy called mr Lam scooped everything. Even best sausage roll.

Mate was it a Krapow ? like TLN Gourmet posted

We keep Bisto in the house - I can even get it at Kroger now, no need to drive an hour to the international market.

Where my wife grew up, beef/brown gravy on French fries is very common, so when we have fries of some sort, she'll occasionally want some gravy poured over, and that's when I reach for the Bisto.

Is Mrs Tasters Canadian ?

Very nearly. She grew up about 30 miles south of the Canadian border.

Could be Salford. They put beef gravy on fish and chips!

Occasionally, but not often. She usually saves that for trips home.
