Cooking on an Aga

This post is dedicated to Michael who was keen to get a mention. I have been enjoying using Margaret's gas aga immensely. You can cook a fantastic roast very quickly and the roasted potatoes that Keith have done have been the best ever. I have also done some slow cooking in the cooler oven. The lamb shanks fell off the bone. The aga ensures that the kitchen is always warm and it dries clothes magnificently. You just drape them all over and leave overnight and come downstairs to clean, dry washing.

Boiling a kettle is fast, so I am enjoying making cups of tea. I will miss it. Michael loves cooking and would enjoy experimenting and trialling different recipes on this stove. Keith has enjoyed the warmth sitting in front of his computer at the kitchen table beside the aga.
