You know you aren't on mumsnet, right?I'd never make stock in a slow cooker because they don't heat to the intensity you need to boil a stock at. However the aroma of a pot of real chicken or beef stock, redolent with herbs and infused with flavour-full ingredients of carrot, swede, celery and onion is my idea of Nirvana. My "worst nightmare" would be serving my family and friends up a soup or casserole made with an Oxo cube or a sauce created from a chemical cocktail of artificial colourings and flavourings in the form of those disgusting gravy granules. Like I was some chavvy Come Dine With Me contestant from Basildon.
