Clotted cream made in a rice cooker? The maths say it's so!

(for some odd reason, the link comes up blank. Use the right arrow icon and then the left arrow and it should go to the Prologue page and recipe. Conversely, use the left arrow first and then the right arrow to get to Prologue.)

(No, I don't know why.)

Oh, and I checked around and it's 2 pints of the best heavy cream you can find.

Also, if you have a slow cooker and it goes low enough (~185 degrees) you can make it in there over 12 hours. End result of either method is you lift off the solid clotted cream and store in refrigerator; the liquid below is still useable.

Have warm scones ready to make your mouth happy. Pretend you are in York, sitting in a garden of a home built around the time of Henry VIII. Who knows...the Royal We might have even had a scone here with LOTS of clotted cream.

What a great book, Marilyn!

Quite apart from the recipe (which I absolutely must try even though I don't have a rice cooker, I will figure something out, maybe my hot tray, or the warmer drawer, I know I can get that at 180 degrees), it has the best explanations. I am about to try to explain Computational Thinking to my 6th graders. They have great trouble with the Long Words like Abstraction, so I was going to translate into KidSpeak this year, but this book has a simple and wonderful explanation. Ordered!

Thank you!

I haven't been here for ages, I'm so glad I popped in.

Thanks for posting! My tea group would be very impressed!
