Fri, Feb 19, 21

“Cooking like this at house once we are simply the two of us is ideal. Making probably the most out of roasting a rooster, however in essence getting two totally different meals from one chook, utilizing 1 pan. Genius!

The Crane C2 forged iron sauté pan is ideal for this!  First the rooster and aromatics are roasted within the pan, after which the broth and the Tom Kha soup made immediately into the identical pan – making certain to get all that roasted flavour into the broth.

All the time take the chance to make a inventory or broth within the pan after roasting meats, the extraordinary flavour you’re going to get goes such a good distance.  Freeze the shares to tug out at a later date or do as we do and revel in a easy broth with steamed rice, some herbs or greens and an egg yolk for breakfast.” Katherine Bont @katherinebont
