1. Recipe says to strain the foam from the broth. 2. If you can't taste the herbs, add more! You gotta taste the food as it cooks. 3. The recipe wants you to strain the liquid from the bread/vinegar/broth mix, not add it as is. 4. Vinegar is supposed to be a part of the flavor, not something to camouflage the flavor of bad meat. At the end, it suggests adding more to taste, along with salt.
Great job staying true to the original recipe! I made this a few months ago and went with red balsamic vinegar because that's the best sounding option I had in my cupboard. I liked how it turned out.
I was born in Coventry in 1947 but I moved to London at a young age and then back to Coventry again in my mid twenties. I was dismayed to see the Lady Godiva under a canopy. It looks awful and wrong. It should be in the centre of the green where it always has been. Whose idea was this? I went to Coventry College of Art (used to be Technical College then). I think it has been pulled down, I’m not sure. I still live in London however.
My mother (born 1940) grew up in Coventry. Her father, like so many of his time, simply didn't discuss the war. They weren't 'heroes': they were victims of somebody else's conflict which they had no say in. Granddad never discussed the war. I never heard him talk about it, and I never asked him about it. I don't even know what he did during the war, but it was probably making engines or something: I will never know. His generation were forward looking and wanted to leave the war behind. Quite what he would make of today's Gammons who keep looking back and want to keep bringing it up as if it was our greatest hour escapes me.
Exuse me today have you seen a class come in because thats me😂 im guessing lea forest primary academy weve made sculptures and learned about lots other stuff🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
The city of Coventry was bomb because Churchill bond Munich first , to stop the RAF air fields being bomb all the time, because of the traitor ex-king who was helping Hitler by showing Hitler where the air fields where and to overthrow England and then kill all those who was responsible for the removal of the king Edward Vlll and Hitler would replace him as the king again. And the Edward never stood in a lawful court of record before the king and the people for his treachery to the people of the land know as England; Scotland; Wales;
I was born in Coventry in 1939. I survived the blitz despite being blown up in our house. The house I was born in is still standing. At 84 years old I still live in Coventry.
I live in Willenhall,Coventry and I found a Flintshire that's very similar to the one found in video. Is there some whereI can take the one I found to have it looked at?
On the 15th November dad said to me "come on we're going out" I was only 5 at the time . It was 6 o'clock and dark, Dad had a bike and with a rear support for me to sit on. We went to Shoal Hill. There was a small group of men all looking to the south west and talking. Dad said "look over there" and there was a red glow in the sky, dad explained that that was Coventry burning. Coventry was 50 odd miles away.
I've lived in Texas my entire life, and I grew up thinking and feeling exactly how she describes everything, in the same time period. Every last word is 100% relatable for me, this has never happened to me before. So yeah, I just wanted to point out that it happened.
my grandfather died in the raid. direct hit on an Anderson shelter in Foleshill. somehow my dad survived. my grandfather was laid out dead on the Foleshill Road, where his brother later found and identified him. He is buried at Bedworth.
My 8 minute interview reflects on my experience in rave culture- not everyone went to the same clubs. Also, how was I not there- were you a bouncer on the door in the 90’s 😂 So in response to your comment about not being there, i was there at the heart of it all and due to me being at the heart of rave, led to those images being featured in 7 exhibitions and counting. How many photos have you taken aged 16 have been exhibited and printed in magazines nationwide? thought so 🤣 Don’t feed the troll!
@@drpepa09 A round of applause 👏🏻👏🏻 Yes, I was 11 when I first started watching Normski on dance energy. This inspired me to get into dance music. Aged 14, I started going out to my first nightclub and aged 16, I first went out raving. The era I am speaking about is the mid nineties, where fashion did change as people could be more stylish in the comfort of a warm club. Now, that we have got the date confusion out of the way- lets continue enjoying being nostaglic. Hmmm, I bet you are fun at parties 😂.
I'm pleased to see a reminder, of the horror that Coventry suffered via the Luftwaffe. BUT ONLY, because I'm tired and sickened by the obsession that lefty liberals of this generation have, for the Allied raid on Dresden. YES--it included the USAAF, NOT just the RAF, but you'd never think-so by the ludicrous obsession with the RAF's part, which was at Night, whereas, the USAAF raided in the daytime, and bombed ashes and rubble. Did THEY suffer years of criticism? NO. they were and are treated as Hero's, many were killed in that raid, the war, was still killing our troops.
I’m on here to see what faced my grandad during the bombing. He was on the anti aircraft guns with the army. He was posted there from the Isle of Man. Seen a few photos of him with his regiment.
I went to the Eclipse, Crazy Daises and Wobble and many other at that time, love the bedroom covered in flyers mine was the same, i still have all the flyers as well as a load of vinyl some from Bangin tunes (opposite the Eclipse) nice to see someone keeping the 90's rave alive
@@lucymccarthy7346 i would have to say the Eclipse was the best in the early 90's then all the big raves kicked off like helter skelter and Fantazia so mainly went to those but latter on when i got more into trance and hard house i would say sundissential which was mental then GodsKitchen, also had some great nights in FungleJunk and Nu Tonic (upstairs at Wobble) those were the days
The reason that you could Not taste any of your spices it's because of one big mistake back in the old days in a medieval days the shelf would taste what he was cooking constantly tasting not once did I see you taste your stew and adjusthat's your 1 mistake
