Found three corncobs for a pound in Sainsbury's. Apparently if you put them into boiling water with a dessertspoon of sugar, bring to the boil, turn off the heat and leave for five to seven minutes they cook to perfection. We shall see. Also found some English strawberries being sold off for just over a pound for a large punnet. Decided to make Eton mess since I had some cream and three egg whites in the fridge. Have never yet successfully made meringue but have tried yet again . We shall see. I rather fancy some Eton mess but could not find any shop meringues today. Saw some chestnut mushrooms from Monaghan, so I will try these with eggs and black forest ham for breakfast tomorrow.
Corn fine, meringues failed as usual. Must never try to make these again.
The chestnut mushrooms are good: just a slightly stronger flavour than ordinary ones.
