Just about the driest place on earth – so why start a brewery here, which needs lots of water. I love this story. Fishing for water!!
CHRISTMAS CAKE -2
I am thinking that I might have to make smaller ones to post this year? Although one I posted last year never arrived!? So here is the recipe which I will base what I am going to make on! Its a 6″ cake tin. Recipe
CHRISTMAS CAKE
CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES
Another basic recipe but again can be adapted with addition of nuts, etc.
EASY CHEESE STRAWS
Quick easy and can be modified! Basic recipe.
Add chopped rosemary, basil, oregano, chilli, pepper, dried red pepper, olives, onions, dried tomato. I might have a go at a variety tomorrow!
CHEESE SOUFFLE
A favourite my mum used to make – I will try one soon, I just need another supermarket delivery, collection. This one from the guardian
CAKES
I am looking at the moment – thinking about a basic cake mixture with ground nuts and something fragrant. I guess a lemon icing will always cover up mistakes? And also thinking about the moisture of fruit in a cake. And then it might be time to start a xmas cake soon.
COVID RAMBLINGS
MULLED WINE AND CIDER
Xmas is coming. This recipe for mulled wine is interesting for the technique as much as the contents. You might need to take out a mortgage for a vanilla pod though! Further recipes are being added. Mulled cider fur us ere in Summerset!
SATURDAY
Chilly but dry day. Pasta dough in fridge, bread dough rising. Last of tomatoes picked (only a few small ones, but tasty). So Spag Bol for tea. And maybe tomorrow ‘Apple Charlotte”??
