Is rehesting something to do with Heston Blumenthingy?
I taught him all he knows. Most of it was said as a joke, but he seems to be doing OK with it.
I made beef casserole, better than my parents!

Well done on the casserole.
have a look at a nice Delia cookbook. I learned to cook at school but was given a Delia cookbook when I was in my first flat (I was 16) and I never looked back.
I have just cooked a nice shepherds pie (or swineheards pie actually as I used minced pork) and its lovely. Much better than my mother used to make as she couldn't cook for toffee.

If you don't mind, I'm gonna diss the Delia.
Having said that, I think we probably have every book she's ever written ....30 years ago she was safe cooking for the maudling dinner-party holding middle classes. Book 1 was a revelation, the recipes worked, maybe even foolproof, but nowadays they seem bland and overcomplex. There are a many better and more exciting books out there these days if you're starting out.

So true, but I only have the old books so those books are still bomb proof! I have dyslexia so tent to stay away from the over complex as I get a bit confused with them and then loose my temper.
A idea of better and exciting cookbooks, I would like to see actually. I quite like cooking and now we have a working cooker again I would like to make nicer meals as I have got stuck in a food rut. Mind you, my butternut squash soup recipe has been pinched by a chef pal of mine (all his meals are just too complicated for normal people) he gives it too his kids on cold days.
