ventaAt the weekend, I was trawling the aisles of Sainbury's. And, while it wasn't what I was looking for, their own-brand "Cooks Ingredients" range turned out to be exactly what I wanted.
In effect, it's packets of cooked meat - nowt hugely inspiring there, you'd think. But actually, they're packets of shredded ham hock, shredded beef brisket, shredded cooked chicken... in fact, they're packets of leftovers. Which is great, because sometimes you want the leftovers without having had what is referred to in our household as the firstovers.
Obviously, if you want shredded ham hock then the ideal thing is to have already had a meal or two involving ham hock that week - it's probably nicer, and it's very probably cheaper. However if, for some reason, you have failed to have the requisite foresight then being able to buy leftovers is a very good idea indeed.
