Nice images Mands, could I substitute the cream with anything else? Oh and where can I buy slat?
By: moi du toi photography on November 9, 2012
at 11:29
Oh any good store should supply slat, right next to the salt!!! Oh dear, thanks for spotting that, have updated the post. M, you can use milk instead of cream – you may just have to thicken it a little bit more or alternatively try crème fraiche and then you could skip thickening it all together. Thanks again for the lovely chat this morning. I will get cracking with my homework asap!
