🌿Wild garlic foccacia🌿 Another day, another 🌿Wild garlic foccacia🌿

Another day, another wild garlic creation. 

I whizzed about 150-200g leaves up with a few tablespoons of olive oil and added to the dough. 

I used @theboywhobakes no knead foccacia recipe bit no za'atar this time. I maybe added too much oil because of the oil in with the garlic, but it's still delish. 

What are you making with wild garlic this year?

I made afternoon tea. All of it. Cakes, scones, br I made afternoon tea. All of it. Cakes, scones, breads...may as well while I have the free time! Though to be honest next time I'm buying it! 

Andrew put a nice shirt on and promised to do me a good review on Tripadvisor! 

We went for afternoon tea just before lockdown and now here we are playing at going out. Quite the year eh!

🥕🍐Juicy 🥕🍐 I cracked open the bottle 🥕🍐Juicy 🥕🍐

I cracked open the bottle of Gimber this week for some gingery goodness. So far this juice is my favourite serve:
🥕 1 X carrot 
🍐 1 X pear 
30ml Gimber 
In the Nutri Brings, top up with water and blend. Pour into two glasses and top up with more water for taste. 

Next time, we are doubling the pear, but other than that, perfect! And the Gimber certainly makes itself known 😋

Great at breakfast but also feels cocktail-y 🍹. 

Thanks once again to @drydrinker @gimber_drink for the prize - fab product.

Brown food is tasty food. Today I've made a kick Brown food is tasty food. 

Today I've made a kick ass panang curry. It involved deliveries from @hello_oriental and @thaifoodonlineuk for ingredients but it was worth it (coriander root still eludes me though). Tasted just like ones I've had in restaurants here and in Thailand. A teeny holiday on a plate!

I made flatbread to go with it, and keep with the brown theme, because I'm out of rice and also sick of it this week!

Pudding is a slice, no actually more of a wedge, of malt loaf. 
Made this a week or so ago when I was off work and cunningly popped half in the freezer. 

Recipes from two excellent books: 
📚 Baan by Kay Plunkett Hogge
📚 Christmas Chronicles by Nigel Slater 

Delicious end to the weekend 😋

Thanks @drydrinker and @gimber_drink for my prize. Thanks @drydrinker and @gimber_drink for my prize. I love ginger so can't wait to try this. Soda water is on the shopping list and I'm off to the Gimber website to look at non alc cocktail ideas 🍸🍸. 

I think it will make it's way into bakes as well - watch this space ☺️.

Happy weekend folks. May your drinks be dry and delicious!

Extreme cheese close up. Mont d'Or for tea tonig Extreme cheese close up. 

Mont d'Or for tea tonight. With leftovers from cheese school, pork pies and scotch eggs. Winter picnic! 

Now the big question: to bake or not to bake the cheese? 🤷‍♀️

Bought at @thecourtyarddairy last week. God bless postal cheese!
🧀🍎🧀✏️ Learning material 🍎✏️ J 🧀🍎🧀✏️ Learning material 🍎✏️

Just preparing my learning material for session two of my Cheese Academy L1 course. 

Actually these are for the next two weeks - second pic shows tonight's selection. 

Last week was great. Patrick is a great tutor and it's a lovely group of twelve so we all get to join in. 

We are also pairing drinks tonight, so at Pat's suggestion I have Lushcombe sparkling rhubarb and a ginger kombucha as an alternative to wine. Can't wait to see how they work. Oh and an apple to palate cleanse - a trick I learned at the @internationalcheeseawards 💃. 

PS -If this wasn't enough I have a whole Mont d'Or aka best cheese ever - for tea tomorrow night. It's mainly cream and milk in my veins these days 😜
Did a huge order from @farmhousebiscuitsltd at Chr Did a huge order from @farmhousebiscuitsltd at Christmas and because I'm an idiot/ selfless gifter (you decide) I only got myself one thing. And because I'm an big idiot I didn't open them until now.  These savory cranberry and seed biscuits are just perfect with goats cheese and za'atar.

Need to find a local supplier otherwise I'll be ordering a crateful 😂.
