Examples
“Lastly, I must mention⟳ the "Underground," to travel⟳ on which was, in those days, an experience⟳ to be remembered. There were the antique looking engines, and the rather grim carriages, with the fascinating indicators in the compartments to show⟳ (not always correctly!) the next station, and above all, there was the atmosphere.”
“You could just use⟳ ordinary shop-bought kecap manis to marinade the meat, but making your own⟳ is easy, has a far more elegant fragrance and is, above all, such a great brag! Flavouring kecap manis is an intensely personal thing, so try⟳ this version now and next time cook⟳ the sauce down with crushed, split⟳ lemongrass and a shredded lime leaf.”
