Ham stock cubes?

Morrison’s stopped selling Knorr ham stock cubes, but I think Tesco and Aldi still have them.

I used my last ham stock cube last week. I haven't tried to get any more, but DH who works in the Co-op says they still sell them.

I tried all over the place to find yellow mustard seeds. DD got me some with her Morrisons order. We couldn't find them in Tesco, Waitrose or Sainsbury's.

You can still get both Knorr and Oxo ham stock cubes. I even saw them in B&M, if you have one in your area.

I wonder why they seem in such short supply. Its not as though bacon is unpopular.

I worked in the Knorr factory as a student. It was a long time before I could look a stock cube in the eye again!

I've been looking for them in all sorts of shops for ages now. I noticed on Mumsnet there was another person lamenting the apparent shortage of ham stock cubes. I'll need to keep trying and if I ever find any I'll buy up the whole stock!

Jane, I could put them on my online Tesco order and post them to you!

I was in Tesco today but nae luck!

We have never been able to buy them here we can only get Lamb ones in the North African shops. I bulk buy the Ham ones when in the UK and have been known to ask friends to post some too me when I get a craving for pea and ham or lentil soup.

I usually make that sort of soup with the stock made from simmering a piece of gammon. Then the last ends of the gammon are chopped up to go in the soup.

I’ll need to keep a look out as I’ll be running out soon.

Get a ham hock and simmer it until cooked. Eat the meat. Put the bone and odd bits of jelly back in the pan, cover with water, add a bay leaf and other herbs to tastes and simmer for ages. Pour the resulting liquor in to ice-cube trays and freeze. Ham stock cubes on demand for ages.

Lidl sells its own name of ham stock cubes, good stand by if you don't have ham ribs.
