ooo....and excuse to go shopping for cooking stuff! I'll go hunting for a cast iron pot on Saturday. Will be ideal for making wintery stews now that the summer weather is just about over for this year. Beef stew simmered slowly in a cast iron pot should help, with lots of dark green leafy things thrown in. I do like black pudding (blood sausage), but I prefer the Norwegian variety. I will have to research the various butchers to find one I like. I started my iron rich diet today for lunch: spinach salad with egg, crackers with liver pate, glass of juice.
