How many grams iare ther in a level dessert spoon?
Using mushrooms instead of peppers
Can I change the peppers (which I don’t like!) for mushrooms in the Marinated Chicken Brochettes recipe?
I’ve tried the recipe before and the chicken is beautifully tender, but not the peppers! And would substituting mushrooms alter the cooking time at all?
Thank you

Making 50 scones
Plain scones - any tips how to make 36-50 scones? Is it best to just cook small amounts 12 at a time, or will it work if I scale up the recipe and mix up 4 x the normal recipe in 1 go?

Making a larger batch of scones
Hi I love the plain scones recipe which makes 12, but I need to make 36 scones this weekend for a family afternoon tea - is it best to make several batches of 12 and bake as I go, or can I just scale up and mix 3 x the recipe in 1 go? Thanks for any tips
