Mail for help.Help!!

Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Helen Beaumont, I must admit I'm with you there, those abominable excuses for teabags in the yellow boxes are dire to say the least. We always chuck a few proper teabags in with us.

Helen Beaumont - English tea is definitely a tradeable currency in Morzine / Les Gets!

brian - I'm with you on the "go native" sentiment. The total extent of our food importing extends to:

- Lloyd Grossman curry sauce (good and quick)
- Carluccio's lemon oil - for which there is no substitute locally
- some unctious balsamic vinegar - because it's too expensive to experiment buying stuff we don't know
- porridge - expensive locally
- some white tea (like Chinese green tea) - expensive locally
- marmite

I must admit that we find most stuff in the local shops to be much better quality than at home - although I've not found a good butchers yet.

PhillipStanton, my recipe is for citrus oil, adn combines lemon, orange and lime. I have however made it just with lemons. I think the secret is in the lemon rind, you need lemons with nice thick skins, as they have more oils in them.

marc gledhill - think "Jaffa Cake"...

...add olive oil...

...take away the chocolate and bicsuit (sorry, cake) base, which would obviously make things a bit of mess...

You'll needing the flavour, but not jelly element, of the smashing orangey bit either - as the jelly would make things difficult to pour.

Obviously, we're talking lemon oil here, so imagine you started off with a lemon Jaffa Cake in the first place...

Really, I don't understand why I don't work on TV as a telly chef rolling eyes rolling eyes rolling eyes

(It's very good for salad dressings!)

PhillipStanton, mmmm, two things don't add up,

1. I've never heard of a type of foodstuf, yet
2. It's that good you have to take it to France.

Puzzled

Actually this gives rise to a third; haven't the French heard of it either.

However I am comforted slightly - you use Lloyd Grossman curry sauces. Quick, yes - good............. Evil or Very Mad

I'm sure the French do have it / have heard of it - but they don't sell it in any of our local supermarkets.

Top tip, add a bottle of Pelforth Brune to the Rogan Josh if you're doing lamb. It's important to quality control the Pelforth Brune whilst cooking - you never know when you might have a dodgy bottle.

It's often been said that I look better after half a dozen Pelforth Brunes, but I'm not sure whether I'm supposed to apply them to myself or the person looking at me!

Thanks you gsb.

I got a letter this morning - they accept VISA cards. The same VISA card they let me order one with. Puzzled

I'm going to have to pick one up on the way - there's no way that Mrs PhillipStanton will stay awake for the whole trip!
