    Good Housekeeping top tips

    Filed under: In The Papers;

    Forwarded from a loyal friend of Our Produce, these ideas featured in a recent edition of Good Housekeeping magazine and definitely seem worth sharing!

    1. Add an inch of water to the bottom of the roasting tin when cooking turkey – it steams the bird as well as roasting it, leaving the meat lovely and moist ( a tip from Angela Hartnett – she runs the fabulous Murano restaurant in London and is a former protegee of Gordon Ramsay)
    2. Keep your cooked ham joint in the fridge in a pillowcase. It will sweat in clingfilm or foil, but stored in a pillowcase it will last 2 weeks. Fold back the rind before you cut slices off, then cover the remaining ham with the rind as you go. ( A tip from John Torode of Masterchef fame)
    3. To make your Christmas wreath last longer, spray with hairspray before you hang it on the front door!

    I have to stress that I haven’t tried any of these but I’m interested to hear any other top tips you may have!
