I have been buying a certain branded Turmeric Latte Mix for a long time. I realise it's a high quality product, but it is expensive and can go clumpy very quickly. I couldn't get any during lockdown anyway, so I made my own. And now, as I prefer this, I won't be buying Turmeric Latte Mix again.
We're keen to grow Herbs and Spices at home, and cook with them whenever we can. I'm always finding ways to sneak them into our food, and experimenting with recipes to incorporate as many herbs and spices into our diet as possible. This Juniper and Pepper Spice Blend is our favourite, and this is how I make it.
A complete list of Gervin Yeasts by Muntons, and when to use them. Whatever you are brewing at home, there will always be a Gervin yeast which fits the bill! With superfast delivery from our shop in East Sussex.
I made lemonade using whole lemons. I usually make Fermented Lemonade which adds a different twist. I had forgotten how simple and delicious homemade lemonade could be! With just 3 ingredients: lemons, sugar and water.
We've been growing salad leaves in rain guttering for years. If you've thought about it too and are not sure where to start, this is how to get yours set up. You can enjoy fresh, beautiful Salad Leaves whenever you want them, all year round. And all at very low cost.
A Herb Spiral is a lovely feature to have in any growing space, like the ultimate raised bed. We have had an allotment for years, and I've always wanted one. This is a step by step guide describing how we built our Herb Spiral with repurposed bricks.
Chives are one of the easiest herbs to grow. Every year they produce a mass of beautiful flowers. Which is your cue to make your own Chive Blossom Vinegar. The most beautiful vinegar you will ever have, to look at and to taste, on chip shop chips with seasalt. Don't believe me? Wait until you try it.
During the Covid-19 lockdown, we have been asked by many customers about using old kits. The conversation goes something like this: I stopped brewing a while ago, and have found an old kit in my garage. Can I still use it? This is how you test to find out whether your yeast is still active.
Whilst we knew we had ordered a cheese box, we weren't expecting it today. As there wasn't time to make a standard bread loaf in time for lunch, I decided to make Beer Quick Bread instead. I started at 11.30 and it was ready by 1. The smell is incredible, the taste is delicious! It makes fantastic toast too.
It's mid-June and the elderflowers are coming to an end. I actually thought the flowers were finished in this part of the country, and then we found more. Elderflower cordial is now available to buy in the shops all year round, but there really isn't anything quite like homemade in season.
