Hi, Cairistiona here again.
Reading the discussion from a couple of days ago about cold fish
reminded me of the traditional methods in Cornwall for cooling cream
(while clotting it). Put the pan on the stone floor. Apparently this
is where the expression 'stone cold' comes from. Even up to the
fifties fridge-less people were storing milk and fish on a piece of
slate in the larder.
