... does it go crispy or soggy?

And if crispy, how long do I have to nuke them for?

I bought them two days ago, never got round to eating them, and they're a bit floppy.

Plus: If the minty-sauce thing and the mango-ey sauce thing have been left out on the bench (as opposed to the fridge) ... are they alright to eat, or will I die horribly of food poisoning?

Let the experiment begin.
Do half and half. If we don't hear from you then we need to keep the dips in the fridge next time.

Direct flame, either over the ring or a blowlamp. The dips will be fine IMHO.

Ok, well about thirty sec in the microwave has improved them slightly.

The minty one is bright yellow, like Colmans mustard colour.
How is it dairy?
... its my favourite Sad


Think I'll risk it, eh.

my vote is microwave.

too easy to burn over a flame without even warming all of it up

i've cooked papadams from raw in a microwave with a light smear of oil on each side

so im guessing you could reheat them in there too

when it pings, at first they might seem slightly soggy, but then the steam evapourates and they stiffen up.

my bet is that 10 mins in a normal oven is the best bit rather than waiting for someone on bcf to tell you. it could take ages

Yeah, me either.
But its definitely mint, I tasted it when we first bought the takeaway (but got distracted by the potato thingy stuff)

Hmmm, I've tasted the mint and its not bad. Got a fair old bit extra chilli in it than most I've tried. But its still sweet enough
Cool Thumbs Up

What flavour?
*drool*
I like them cheese and ham ones.
Or are I thinking of those Chicagotown foldy pizza thingies?

Or cheese on toast.

I like that ad, where everybody's looking at someone eating cheese on toast, and drooling.

If I had been gonna admit to that, I woulda made a point of using correct grammar and capitalisation.

In theory if you whack them in the microwave they will go soggy. Microwaves work by warming up the water particles in the food.

Think of it like this, if you have ever put a sausage roll in the microwave. The pastry is not crispy put soggy.

Minced beef! Cheese and ham are equally awesome. Curry ones were... interesting, cant remember what other flavours they do. Local Tescos were doing them for a quid per box! I bought enough to survive a small nuclear winter...

NSR-AD i thought it was four but theres actually six! wooo...
