 I live in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, Canada.  I come from a British background mother who likes her food bland and predictable.  Am using some of the recipes on here to mix her up a bit!  Such fun!  ;)


 My favourite dish is my homemade spaghetti sauce on spaghetti, of course.  :)  It's a good thing my family loves it as well or they'd get sick of it.  :)  I use it for lasagna, manicotti, and a variety of other recipes.  I even add it to KD for a nice change!  :)

I make this each year. Last year I added some globs of melted chocolate semi-sweet chips & dragged a knife through it for a beautiful feathered look. So good! I don't add the flavouring & find white chocolate chips extremely difficult to work with.

Does one begin to heat the water before adding the Q or does it get added to the water, then put on the stove?

Please recheck your ingredient list; cake & pudding? Incomplete ingredient lists plague Big Oven!

Italian Chocolate Bread Pudding (Bodino Nero)

Italian Chocolate Bread Pudding (Bodino Nero)

This recipe shows my frustration with Big Oven's recipes. I'm unsure if it's a case of maxed out characters on a line or people just not double checking their recipes before posting them. This recipe looked very interesting but with the bits & pieces of missing information/ingredients one becomes afraid of a flop due to misinterpretation. This is frustrating. I recommend hunting down the originals & praying that they are still being archived by the hosting website.

Brigitte Sealings Low-Cal Cake and Frosting

Brigitte Sealings Low-Cal Cake and Frosting

Just re-read the recipe as something confused me. In directions you state the following: "Sieve the four over the egg yolk mixture and then put the egg snow on top." But I'm left to ask, "Four must be flour but, if it is, what flour?". This recipe's ingredients doesn't list flour and how much is needed? Dunno! Please re-read & make corrections on what could be a de-lish recipe.

Frozen vanilla what?? Sugar what?? Please re-read your recipe & correct missing information. As is, it's inacurate & confusing.

What size is the carton of whipping cream?? 250mL? 500mL? Or 1L? Frustrating not knowing. Also, not familiar with FF?? Does it mean Fat Free? Guessing as no previous mention of it aids in deciphering this yummy looking recipe. :(

Anyone have any clue as to how much and what type of sugar one is to use with this recipe?? Gotta love partial recipes...

Thanks for your update on this recipe -- you're right, 3/23rds of a tablespoon is a little odd. That was a rounding display bug -- it's 1/8th. Thanks!
