Ok, I'm not the world's greatest chef; but, for all you English saddos here in Egypt who a)don't know this already, and b) miss Bisto, - when you don't want to "Eat like an Egyptian", especially now we have a bit of colder nights and need comfort food, you can throw a dessertspoonful of molasses, [aka black honey] in your casserole, gravy, or whatever, along with a beef stock cube. Also, for those with more sophisticated taste, it does substitute well for adding a slug of red wine. Really works, and doesn't taste sweet. Useful for enriching barbecue sauce also.

ooh sorry. A dessertspoon is ... what you eat dessert with, but traditionally, in volume, halfway between a teaspoon and tablespoon [serving spoon] I never can understand 'cups' of this and that, but once again thank God for google.
