However, I have to cook the stock the next day, as I got fed up with the nightmares brought on by the smells wafting from the kitchen. I tried shutting the door, but nope, could still smell it.

I've always done it the next day, but the idea of waking up to deep savoury aromas drifting out of the kitchen is a tempting and delicious one.The Grubwormhttp://www.thegrubworm.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4148635935379992641.post-59377202075571227802011-01-20T11:47:16.242+00:002011-01-20T11:47:16.242+00:00Def agree with you about over-catering and not wan...Def agree with you about over-catering and not wanting people to go home hungry (that would be so embarrassing!). <br /><br />I'm struck by the fact that you left the oven on overnight. Do you have a slow cooker?
