I bought a piece of gammon that I was going to roast for us dinner tonight. Foxie had a different idea and said slow cook it in - and you won't believe this - coca-feckin'-cola!
I did point out the effect of dipping an old, brown penny in coke and how it strips it back to shiny copper but I was told to just get on with it. I did get on with it (as per) and TBH there's some nice smells coming from the kitchen.
I shall report back.
BTW what effect does turmeric have on our insides? We had a curry the other night and it stained the dish cloths yellow. Three times I have put them through the wash (I kept adding them to different loads) and they're still stained. Brobat is calling.

Tasty. Could have done with a vodka to go in with the coca cola I reckoned. Had a hard stare from Foxie.

No Gammon here in Oz.
You can probably buy uncooked ham but they don't call it Gammon.

Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

Funny thing though, all the coca-cola colouring had gone, there was only a clear liquid left. I would normally have made a gravy from a slow cooked gammon joint but I chucked it.
