I know that it will soon be Spring and warming up slightly but last weekend it was still freezing and this is the perfect excuse for a slow cooked Sunday lunch. The meat in this dish falls from the bone and lands in the sweetest, syrup of a sauce that has all the body of [...]

I made Quince Cheese yesterday. I psyched myself up for a session by the stove, in the heat, convinced that I’d be there for hours and end up having to throw my maslin pan out as I’d made boiled sweets. But no! As you can see it turned out exactly how I thought it should [...]

I’m always trying to eat more fish and more vegetables. I love fish if it is cooked for me, at a restaurant for example. But more often than not me thinking that I’m ordering fish is actually me ordering the Chili Calamari at Wagamama. Not quite the same thing. So I figured that I would [...]

Cheese goes through phases of being in fashion just as much as anything else that we eat, wear or use around the house. Remember when sales of Wensleydale went through the roof after Wallace & Gromit were seen eating it in their Christmas special? And then when they changed allegiance to Stinking Bishop the poor [...]
