Tidying up post. Thanks for the art @dunelm and @gennepher. @dunelm hug for Mr Pickle but if you play sport any loss should be mourned long and hard. Winning isn't everything but losing isn't anything. Maybe not the whole Shanklyesque - this is not life and death, it is much more serious - mantra. Loving your artwork @gennepher, hope Popeye recovers his appetite and you enjoy "me time" with the film. @alf_Josiah I hope the away time is a success at whatever it is meant to do. Now, "way back when" I (well, The Food Fairy did the practical) discovered, via Tom Kerridge, how to make caramel from Inulin - huge success. Upshot was I made some Elsie/Keto CCBs - chocolate caramel bars - instead of buying high carb gopping commercial ones lacking fibre. Forumites liked the idea but in trying to make the caramel, burnt saucepans, smooked (NFN) out their kitchens etc. Herewith is another version which also makes well in muffin trays. I had one yesterday - liked it even though it absolutely destroys just about everything I believe about diet - except fibre.
High fibre chocolate flaxseed bars base recipe
Per bar made in soap bar sized silicone mould (currently lost in a box here)
1.5 ounces or 42.5 gms milled flaxseeds although whole work better for fibre
⅙ ounce (4.5 gms) inulin
4 squares = 1 row of chcologic belgian chocolate or 20 gms darkest choc we have (needs sweetener for me; I avoid eryth at all costs) chocolgic ramps up fibre massively; analysis uses Waitrose 1 posh dark choc
½ ounce or 14 gms butter
1 ounce or 28 gms cream
Cronomter's anlysis below as an image.
