Morning Stokies one and all, I mentioned yesterday that my new supply of Oatcakes arrived (thanks to the Staffordshire Oatcake Company - highly recommended for all expats and quite reasonably priced). Anyway, I was still in a state of shock after the revelations on this board, so following the old adage - "An Oatcake a day keeps the doctor at bay", I used 6 Oatcakes lightly grilled with a filling of left over Italian Meatballs in my homemade sauce, thinly slice the meatballs, reheat in microwave for 10 seconds, put into 2 lots of 3 Oatcakes, roll up and eat, well after the first one, throw the second one away!!! Do not try this at home Hey ho have a good day
ImSpartacus, your making me hungry Up Yorkshire, I can only seem to find Tescos 'equivalent' never a proper, good, ol' oatie. Will get some Easter though well relatives come up!
Jub - as said, Staffordshire Oatcake Company, google them for website. 12 Oatcakes for ã5.35 including 1st class postage - and I'm not on commission!! Pass the Oatcakes gave me the info, I think that these guys deserve all the ex-pat business we can give, perhaps we can then get a discount!
Ahh yeah, passtheoatcakes, lives up to his name. I forgot about delivery, there is always that option! Cheeers. I like High Lane. Your preference?
Believe it or not Jub, until I got the first batch from Staffordshire Oatcakes, I had NEVER tasted one in my albeit short life!!!!!!! So I cannot make any comparisons, from what I have heard, they are not too bad, better than the Tesco's offerings by all accounts. Mind you I cannot see them under Tesco's Best Ever Brand - whatever don't ever try them with left over reheated meatballs!!
I haven't had Oatcakes in so long Whenever we got them, we got them from the butchers, they were absolutely stunning
I`m Spartacus,The oatcakes I get from Tesco in Wrexham are from The North Staffs co and I don`t know if that`s the same co.that you sent away to,but if it is then they are charging you ã3.85 for postage!! They cost 75p for half doz.,in fact they suddenly shot up from 50p about 3 months ago and I was so incensed I rang up Radio Stoke to ask what the prices were in Stoke,but nobody there seemed to know! Anyway they are delicious,especially with cheese between 2 and Smoked bacon and tomatoes!!
