    we always called them 100s and 1000s (I often think if my granny came back from the 60s the only thing she would be really impressed by is silicone spatulas :-) )

    I am a new visitor and subscriber. Your calm sweet demeanor is enjoyable and nice as you show your recipes and techniques. I do have a question: Would you be willing to show us how to make clotted cream? We can't get the fresh article in the states so I would like to make my own. Thank you.

    • @MrPaulsPantry
      @MrPaulsPantry  2 года назад

      Welcome and thanks for subbing! Before you can make Clotted Cream you need to be able to obtain unpasteurized and unhomogenized milk. (Raw Milk) which I understand is illegal in most states in the US.

    • @donnavorce8856
      @donnavorce8856 2 года назад

      @@MrPaulsPantry Thank you for your fast reply. We can obtain it but it must come from a private dairy and bought directly from the dairy owner. I have done so in the past when trying to make clotted cream. My thought is that if someone marketed this product in the US they would become popular! America needs to know about this amazing substance. Cheers

You are the kind of baker I like plain and homely none of this fancy stuff where you need that many ingredients.

    My local Pie, Mash and Liquor place does this cake but I've not tried it. I'm not sure if I remember this from being a kid or not to be honest. It's definitely a British thing though and that's good enough for me. Glad to see you looking better Mr Paul.

      Hi Graham, Thanks for your comments, most of the sweetness is in the icing, so depending how much topping, the sweetness can be controlled. Also thanks for your very kind wishes, they're much appreciated.

    If you want a bouncier sponge, use duck eggs. You might need to adjust for the size of the yolks and the size of the eggs in general.

    First, glad to see you’re on the mend, neck brace discarded!
    Secondly, thanks for rekindling fond childhood memories. I was born in 1963 in the UK and enjoyed school lunches, though many children complained. Catering for large numbers might have been tricky but how lucky we were to enjoy fresh, real ingredients instead of processed food.
    Cheese flan, rainbow sponge, jam roly poly, treacle sponge, jam sponge, spotted dick, other steamed suet puddings, Bakewell tart… reflected good housekeeping/budgeting and are so tasty.
    Since moving to the US in 2006, I pine for the foods I enjoy. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Mr. Paul. So greatly appreciated. 🙏

      No sorry John as the book doesn't belong to me. the book belongs to the family of the original School Dinner Cook their Mother, who kept a hand written copy of the recipes she made back in the 1950's and 60's. My agreement with the family was that I would only use the book as reference if the recipes that were requested from my viewers was actually in the book.

      The only one that's not suitable is the very soft spread margarine as it contains a lot of water which upsets the balance if the other ingredients.
