She won’t cos she’s lazy but I think she would do very well if she did do supper clubs at other people’s houses. I can imagine the insta posts of Allegra/Louisa’s middle class friends having Jack cook for them and saying they had NO idea it was all canned food.

I would love to visit her restaurant, it would be hilarious. However, I think a mass Tattle meal would be easy to spot as none of us would eat anything and we would just be pissing ourselves laughing the whole time.

With regards to her dirty nails, yes when you've been gardening they do get grotty. But you're not gardening NOW Jack, in fact you're handling food. It's gross.

And just to refer back to that (what seemed to be a nice supportive comment) tweet where she replied mentioning the coven. Why on earth did she think it was us?! But carry on Jack, every time you mention us a few more people will Google out of curiosity. If you Google "Jack Monroe coven" our lovely faces all pop up to welcome new members and serve them tea.

It’s astonishing how clueless she is about food techniques and processes, i.e. why you cook things in a particular way. You’d think after nearly a decade as a food blogger she might have made an attempt to educate herself a bit.

Why would you liquidise your home made jam, one of the lovely things about it is getting nice chunks of fruit in it

That is a really good call. She can work alongside Southend's own Salvo the clown.
#nevergonnahappen.
A few years ago Salvo the clown came into where I was working. He was in his full clown gear, big shoes, red nose - the works. He was in total squeaky voice clown mode, then my colleague asked what the Salvo on his hat meant. He said in a deep, scary voice "salvation of the lord, for all you sinners" it was the creepiest thing ive ever heard.it was like a switch had flipped. I've given him a wide berth ever since!

oooh, I tried making membrillo once. Didn't quite work....tasted nice though!
We used to have quince budh and i got a grand total of 3 fruits that were as hard as rocks. Had to go to the Turkish shop to buy more!
I used tonnes of sugar but not sure i was supposed to?!!! Never quite set as hard as membrillo should be but made a really nice pink jam!!!
