The white eggs develop a delicious smokey flavor and a brown color when slow-cooked in a pot of soup or a cholent overnight.
One egg broke while cooking. I imagine I hit it with a ladle as I stirred it every so often. That is a rare accidental event.
I broke the shell on the egg on the left and started to peel it before I decided to capture this shot.

olive oil www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001y2z6
Michael Mosley discovers that enjoying more olive oil in your daily diet can come with a whole host of surprising benefits, including protecting your brain, improving your memory and reducing chronic inflammation. The Mediterranean diet has been shown to be one of the healthiest in the world, and a major component of this is olive oil. Dr Bill Mullen from the University of Glasgow tells Michael about his recent research, which found that two tablespoons of olive oil a day can significantly reduce biological markers of heart disease. Meanwhile our volunteer Ellen, an avid home cook, reaps the benefits of switching to olive oil.

cooking the mixture was convoluted. i wrapped the sausage meat in foil and placed in the slowcooker on low but even after a few hours it wasn't cooked
next removed from the slowcooker, unwrapped the foil and decanted the meat into a deep metal dish covering with foil - the ingredients had reduced so could fit in easily. finally placed in the counter top mini oven on 170 fah until cooked - should have done that in the first place :)
then spooned into the pots and placed in the refrigerator ready for the recipes flic.kr/p/2r18BnH

olive oil www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001y2z6
Michael Mosley discovers that enjoying more olive oil in your daily diet can come with a whole host of surprising benefits, including protecting your brain, improving your memory and reducing chronic inflammation. The Mediterranean diet has been shown to be one of the healthiest in the world, and a major component of this is olive oil. Dr Bill Mullen from the University of Glasgow tells Michael about his recent research, which found that two tablespoons of olive oil a day can significantly reduce biological markers of heart disease. Meanwhile our volunteer Ellen, an avid home cook, reaps the benefits of switching to olive oil.

i've just read, the ingredient measures are for a 5.5 litre slow cooker. measures should be adjusted for a smaller slow cooker.
my slowcooker is 3.5 litres. that explains why my pudding wasn't cooked after 4 hours. i cooked it for longer and it was fine

I've just put the ingredients for this week's 'house sauce' in the slow cooker. I have a feeling it will be a cure for almost anything; there are the usual suspects (soffritto) as well as olives, tomatoes, 3 kinds of peppers, and a small marrow. A friend gave me a bag of aglione spice mix so I added some of that, too. Covered with a glass of red wine and stock.
I'm looking forward to how the kitchen will smell in the morning.
I bought another slow cooker yesterday for the cost of a flat white. This one is only 1 liter and so neat.
I made a sauce/soup overnight:
Onion
Celery
Garlic
Dried herbs
Carrot
Blackeyed beans
Red capsicum
Tomato puree
Bacon
Veggie stock
Cook on low for 6 hours
To make the product a bit more versatile I blitzed with a stick blender.
Top tip ... stop the blender before lifting out of the pot. It looks like a crime scene here!

1kg of cheap chunky cuts of lamb on the bone mixed with plenty of spices, chilli powder, pureed ginger, pureed onion, stock cube, tinned tomatoes, and concentrated tomato paste in the slowcooker for a few hours on low. the lamb was tender and easily came away from the bone. remainder boxed and in the freezer for as and when. lamb bhuna is a 'dry' curry
the meaning of 'bhuna'
an Indian dish or sauce in which spices are dry-roasted in a pan and then combined with a moistening agent such as yogurt or water.
the word 'bhuna' refers to the cooking method of this dish, and means 'to fry' or 'fried'. usually the spices are fried gently, before adding the meat.
originating in bengal, bhuna is a hot 'dry' curry, doesn’t come swimming in sauce. it’s usually a thick sauce, with just enough to cling to the meat
a 'dry' curry has much less liquid. the liquid is allowed to evaporate so that the sauce coats the ingredients

liverwurst/pate spread onto a buttered cream cracker and sprinkled with fresh thyme next to butter sealed jars of liverwurst/pate. made yesterday, first attempt, spooned into jars this morning
i cobbled together various liverwurst/pate recipes for my recipe en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liverwurst i couldn't find one specific recipe that suited me. either i didn't have all the equipment eg canning equipment or all the ingredients eg dried milk powder and bread. i found all recipes had certain basic ingredients. other ingredients were personal preference or great if you have them but the liverwurst/pate would still be ok without them
this is one of the liverwurst/pate recipes/video that i found helpful mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/FMfcgzGqQwCCTZGpkzGPdJhqQ...
my liverwurst/pate recipe below, not recommending, but was ok for me
ingredients
1/3 chicken liver (i didn't have any pork liver)
1/3 lean pork
1/3 pork fat (removed from a joint i cooked the other day)
herbs/spices (personal choice) cardamon, whole black peppers, cayenne pepper, sage, thyme and rosemary
1 large onion diced
salt
equipment
*meat grinder to mince the meat and fat (or buy already minced)
food processor to blend the raw meat, fat, onion, herbs, spices
nutribullet millet blade to mill the spices (or pestle and mortar)
meat thermometer www.amazon.co.uk/KitchenCraft-Stainless-Steel-Meat-Thermo...
**meat pouch of square muslin, folded in half as a triangle, i stitched down one side to look like a pointed pouch. the stitching should be small enough so as no meat will get out from the side when pushed into the pouch (ready made pouches can be bought, but i didn't have one so used the muslin that i did have)
*i bought an old fashioned meat grinder 'spong 25' for £7 from an antique and collectables shop. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334464667774?chn=ps&norover=1&... i happened to see the red handle sticking out from a box, took a look and knew it was exactly what i needed for the next recipe. once home i took it apart, cleaned it up, put it back together and attached it to my work surface ready for mincing
method
i put the lean pork and pork fat through the meat grinder*
i put the minced lean pork in a food processor with salt
blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
chicken liver added (this had not been minced)
blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
minced pork fat added
lean pork, pork fat and chicken liver all blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
added the diced uncooked onion
(add uncooked onion and the liverwurst/pate will be light in colour add cooked onion and the liverwurst/pate will be dark in colour)
added the herbs and spices
all blended until smooth (see video recipe above)
placed the bowl of blended meat, fat, onion, herbs and spices in the fridge to rest and become more flavoursome
removed the blended ingredients from the fridge and spooned into the **muslin pouch, pushing down towards the point of the pouch leaving no air pockets.
when all the blended ingredients were in the pouch i tied it tightly at the top
i placed the full pouch in the slow cooker and covered with water
(i used cold water but to save on cooking time i should have begun with hot water)
'low' setting
cooked for 6 hours
i used the meat thermometer to make sure the meat was cooked - very important www.amazon.co.uk/KitchenCraft-Stainless-Steel-Meat-Thermo...
i removed the pouch of cooked meat from the slowcooker and
allowed the cooked meat to rest overnight
this morning i spooned the liverwurst/pate into jars, pressing down using a teaspoon to make sure there were no air pockets
warm butter poured over the top to seal
when the butter had cooled and set the jars were closed and placed in the fridge

(Use spices of your choice: thyme, basil, oregano and the like.)
Add in a couple of medium-sized tomatoes, diced, and top with a big mushroom, sliced.
Cook for ±6-7 hours on 'low', purée with a stick blender.
All kinds of good stuff can be added: fresh herbs, toasted sesame seeds, cream....
I was busy arranging a fussy smiley out of raisins and a banana when I looked to my left and the slow cooker was smiling at me like a metal Muppet.
Less is sometimes more.

then blended using handblender in the crockpot,
blended mixture is reduced until the consistency is as thick and smooth as butter,
needs many hours in the slowcooker on low,

to eat with any dish, sweet or savoury, even spread on buttered toast/crumpet

So Von's had whole chickens on sale for 69 cents a pound so I got one, so good and so easy to cook!
What was used:
Slow cooker
One whole chicken
One large potato
Garlic cloves
One med Onion
Spices for dry rub
How it was cooked:
Cut the potato in half (length wise)
Lay the potatoes in the bottom of the crockpot like upside down boats (to keep the chicken from sitting in the water)
Add about a cup of water or stock.
Take the goodies out of the chickens cavity (you can throw them away but I just dump them in the crockpot water)
Add the dry rub to all the chicken (inside and out)
Set the chicken on the potatoes and turn on crockpot to high for 5-6 hours or on low for 8-9 hours.
About an hour before it's done, add the onions and any other spice (I added chipotle peppers and butter)
