The Moneyless Chicken

Most of my stockpile of food has been given to me and it would be impolite of me to refuse .
I have bought lots of Hodmedod dried bean/peas so I'm going to challenge myself to cook a  different pulse a week. I'm lazy with dried beans and forget to allow enough time for soaking and cooking. Maybe I should try one of the slowcookers that are lurking at the back of the cupboard.
Sorry to be a disappointment but you won't find any money in my mattress.
My Mum was a hoarder of banknotes and she always told us not to give away her sewing machine without looking inside the base! I forget how much we found but my brother & I used to make regular trips to our banks to pay in a bundle of banknotes.  I always felt guilty paying in the money - as if I'd robbed somebody!!

 Legumes can be poisonous and need thorough cooking to get rid of lectins? Does slow cooking generate enough heat?

I've told you before, vegetables are trying to kill you!
