Re: Value Range foods compared
I'm looking for suggestions please. British Indian Restaurant* style curry sauces. Best value for money with long shelf life...... And simple to prepare. *I have considered the dead cheap Morrison's curry sauce, and the Mayflower powder mix, which are both great value. But indulge me with something...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
Glad to see an update from you, Jenny, though I'm sorry to hear that Mr JJ has succumbed. Hope your preps have got lots of nice and easy stuff to just heat up. If we'd thought it through.... If I'D thought it through, He'd have done a topup shop before succumbing, which was inevitable. Dang it: Fai...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
How are you feeling today, Jenny? Thanks for asking. I think I'm through the worst. Still very sleepy and a bit short of breath with painful chest when I cough. But today's big news is that the much suffering MrJJ showed symptoms this morning and has failed a test with a faint line, whatever that m...

Re: Good morning from N Staffordshire
Me and my partner are preparing ourselves & home to be as self sufficient as possible. This means solar, water, gardens, home craft skills, food storage, mechanical and woodworking. Regardless of a zombie outbreak, apocalypse or world war, this is a way of life I choose to live after an old sty...

Re: What are you dehydrating?
A question on dehydrating bell peppers.... My jar of dehydrated peppers had gone black. Not exactly spoiled, but certainly sub-par, so I slung them. I'd never been satisfied that they were dry enough. This week Lidl had them at £1.90 per kilo. so I bought, chopped and dehydrated. after 12 hours at 5...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
Jenny, if you're feeling crap and getting worse, it's really important not to push through, a deadline of 5 days means nothing. Pushing through is a prime way to turn it into long covid :( This is much worse than last time. Last night, I really struggled to breathe. It was like my lung capacity had...

Re: Powdered egg ?
Is anybody storing this, any ideas on viable shelf life and finally any recommendations, on sources. I'm storing powdered milk, powdered egg seems an obvious addition. I'm storing and occasionally using a few kilo of powdered egg which is BBE Dec 2018. It was cost effective at about £11 a kilo when...

Re: What Preps are you doing this week? Part 11
Sorry to hear this, Jenny, take care of yourself - I got it in autumn 2022, and I was ill for 2 months :( hell's teeth Noooooooo. I had a friend flattened by it for about 6 weeks from December. Reading NHS guidelines, it's of no consequence and I can get out circulating it in about 5 days. :x Feeli...
