Comptons Gravy Salt - 4 x 128gm

Product Information

It may serve to illustrate the discomforts to which gentlemen in the army have to submit, to mention what is considered one of the greatest of these improvements. The auctioneer must be notified in writing of all requests to change previously agreed reserves no later than 3 working days prior to the start of sale. HOW MUCH ?? Gravy is prepared to your taste but we find a satisfactory gravy can be made with one heaped teaspoon per half litre ( a little more than a pint ). This means that it will use about 8g of Gravy Salt - so if your serving per person is three Tablespoonfuls - then your portion content will be about 0.28g of salt There are, it seems, several factors that will ensure a light, airy scone that is scoffed at first sight. First of all, says Sue, it is vital to employ the lightest possible touch when rubbing in the butter, mixing in the milk and patting out the dough. Sue, in fact, never kneads her scone dough; instead simply patting it gently into submission.

To hold one of these old tins – many of which have pleasingly haptic qualities – is to feel one’s own hands gloved by ancient skin, and long-gone fingers fumbling for a Sure Shield glycerine & thymol compound pastille to soothe their sore throat. To decipher the lettering on them: “Crumpsall Works: the Only 8-Hour Biscuit Works in England” is, imaginatively at least, to re-enter not the arid, sexless existence of all connoisseurs in all ages, but the daily lives of living breathing ordinary folk going about their lives. All conditions, notices, descriptions, statements and other matters in the catalogue and elsewhere concerning any lot are subject to any statements modifying or affecting the same made by the auctioneer from the rostrum prior to any bid being accepted for the lot. The Auctioneers reserve the right to dispose of all unsaleable lots which they consider to be of negligible value (not under reserve) without reference to the Vendor and at the Vendors full expense including those which fail to comply with condition 5 herein. The Auctioneers reserve the right to catalogue goods as they see fit, determine in which sale these shall be included (i.e. General or Specialist) and refuse any lots considered to be unsaleable or of negligible value. They shall not be held responsible for any expenses or loss incurred thereby or for the postponement or cancellation of sales, for whatever cause. Vendors do not incur storage charges for the goods held with Acreman St. Antiques Auction Ltd. pending sale.

The ground floor and the first floor are devoted to the use of the officers, and the top story to that of their servants. The architecture of the two wings is of a plainer character, the heads of the ground floor windows being Gothic, and those of the upstairs being square. II. Acreman St. Antiques Auction Ltd do not accept any responsibility for the authenticity, attribution, genuineness, origin, authorship, date, age, period, condition or quality of any lot unless they have been instructed in writing by the vendor so to certify and in such cases the auctioneers do so as agents for the vendor and are not themselves responsible for such claims But as Comrade Stalin sagely observed, quantity has a quality of its own – and that quality is one of impoverishment when money is spent one simply doesn’t have. The things I covet are old, beautiful and unique; rather than novel, well-designed and mass-produced. But even given the great devaluation of the past’s material culture that’s been yet another unforeseen sequel of neoliberalism, I cannot afford, say, a Gwen John painting to go with my 1910 Arts & Crafts house. Then, adding a knob of butter, fry the chop on each meat side for no more than a few minutes. Your chop is now cooked yet maintains the most juicy and succulent texture. As with all meats, allow it to relax in its pan for an extra few minutes to tenderise further.

I came across your discussion while web-browsing: If anyone's interested, the esteemed Gravy Salt was invented in Sheffield...It is the addition to each officer's room of a dark closet, capable of holding a bed, so that officers will not be compelled actually to make the same room serve as sitting room and bedroom, but will have the privilege to sleep in closets, without windows, separated only by curtains from their sitting rooms! I. The auctioneer has the absolute discretion to divide any lot, to combine any two or more lots or to withdraw any lot or lots from the sale, to refuse bids, regulate bidding or cancel the sale without in any case giving reason or without previous notice. He/she may bid on behalf of the vendor for all goods which are being offered subject to reserve or at the auctioneer’s discretion. Any claim under any Statute must be received in writing by the auctioneer within ten days of the sale. The Auctioneers' Conditions of Sale are on display in the auction rooms and online at https://www.acremanstreetantiques.co.uk/.

I called upon those well seasoned pedagogues at Leiths School of Food and Wine ( www.leiths.com) for some elementary instruction. Seasoning (in this instance, the adding of salt and pepper) at the onset of the cooking is, I'm told, the generally accepted cooking practice. It tends to lead to a more mellow but deeper flavouring which permeates the meat or vegetables and becomes an integral part of the dish - as opposed to just coating the exterior. It ushers out the flavour of other ingredients while, in turn, losing something of its own distinctive character. The solution is miniterialism: find something old, beautiful and unique that is relatively cheap. I’m wary of sharing, because I don’t want some sort of feeding frenzy ensuing, whereby newly enthusiastic TNE readers price me out of the market, but my new thing is tins. Yup – that’s right: small, vintage ones, that have contained either foodstuffs – Burdall’s Gravy Salt, with its slogan “The Tell Tale” – or medical ones: for Elastoplast Boil Dressings, and any number of pastilles and cachous; or tins for gramophone needles, glue tubes, and cocoa samples (I have a lovely little Bournville tin from the 1900s, complete with a striker for non-safety matches on its base).

Uploading

I have one cardinal rule when it comes to indulging my miniterialism: no individual tin can cost me more than a tenner. That way, I can indulge myself quite a lot; I mean, at this price I could buy 2,000 of these covetable artefacts, and still not have spent as much as the average Briton does on the mobile tin they call their car. I haven’t owned one of those for so long, I tried to get into someone’s Tesla the other evening and had to be talked through how to operate the door handle at some length.

Some recipes add egg (for a richer scone), margarine (avoid at all costs - butter's flavour is far superior) or even extra-virgin olive oil, which adds a superbly fruity flavour. Many traditional recipes use buttermilk, which makes a delicious scone with a light yet almost spongy texture. II. The highest bidder shall be the buyer except in the case of a dispute. If during the auction the Auctioneer considers that a dispute has arisen, he/she has absolute discretion to settle it or re-offer the lot. The auctioneer may at his/her sole discretion determine the advances or bidding or refuse a bid III. All Statements, whether printed in the catalogue or made orally as to any of the matters set out in b. above are statements of opinion only and are not to be taken as being or implying any warranties or representations of fact by Acreman St. Antiques Auction Ltd, unless they have been instructed in writing by the vendor so to certify, and in such cases Acreman St. Antiques Auction Ltd. do so as agents of the vendor and are themselves not responsible for such claims. Many recipes instruct us to add pepper and/or salt at the beginning of cooking and then "adjust seasoning" at the end. Does anything happen to the flavours of a dish if salt and pepper are added early, or could I just do all the "adjusting" at the end of the process without any loss of taste? In 1902 Herbert Moses Burdall of 38 Commonside, Sheffield was a Drysalter for the firm of Henry Petrie & Co. of Gibraltar Street ('founded in Victoria's reign' was Burdall's later advertising logo), but by 1907 father and son 'Burdall and Burdall' had taken over the drysalting business themselves.

The third terrace will contain four ranges of quarters for cavalry, with stables, enclosing enclosing a parade ground. The accommodation will be for 18 cavalry, and 19 infantry officers, and an equal number of servants. The vendor shall indemnify the Auctioneers against any claims in connection with goods sold on the Vendor's instructions. Nomato, for the uninitiated, is a range of organic products - including ketchup, pasta sauce and soup - minus (as the name might betray) the ubiquitous tomato. It is aimed at those who, like Jill, for health and/or dietary reasons, have elected to exclude tomato (and fellow members of the ominously titled nightshade family) from their diets. And this arrangement, which no private person in decent circumstances would bear, is considered a great improvement in the accommodation of military officers, many of whom are gentlemen of birth and fortune.
