Title: Keeping the base on heat?
Post by: RobbieC on August 24, 2015, 01:48 PM

So the other day at my local TA I saw how they always have the base gravy on heat.

This made me wonder, how long is that gravy on heat? 1 day? 2 days? Is it on overnight?

And most importantly, how does this affect flavour?


I tried it out keeping my base on heat nearly all day (AGA) and overall the flavour seemed a lot more rounded.

It seems to me that Indian restaurants do what I can do but the difference is that I see to have to leave it in the fridge. They have a 'next day' taste.

I always find that a base is better 2 or 3 days after making it, though SWMBO would emasculate me if I tried leaving it cooking for that long.
