so, the label on the frozen duck says "thaw in refrigerator overnight, or 2 hours in cold water"being distrustful, I took the duck out of the freezer 3 days before Christmas... on Christmas Eve, I poked at the duck to find it was still frozen solid! so I filled the sink with water, stuck the duck in it and went to bed... in the morning, the duck was squishy, so, much gladdened, I stuck it in the fridgeat 1 pm, I took the duck out to find that the fatty layer on the outside was thawed, but the center was still frozen solid... so the duck sat under cold running water for 3 hours before I finally let go and admitted defeat.we had a lovely meal of vegetable/chickpea pie and fatooshI cooked the duck on Saturday, and it was fcking delicious.
Mags, that's a lovely cake but why did you choose to use a mix? I make "pionono" (the name for roll cakes in Peru) ALL the time and can suggest some different cake bases for next time if you'd like.
