JackieN's simply food diary - Mainly red but odd, green/EE

[JaneB]

I am not a huge lover of mugshots but quite like the sweet and sour one with chips and I like the chicken one. There are other flavours but i've never tried them. I usually keep a couple in the cupboard as they are quick

Do you use sweetner to make your meringues? Its hard as I try to avoid sweetners where possible hence having to syn them all the time xxxxx

Yes, I use sweetners it takes longer to whisk them and to get them to set, but I only make little batches. x
