"If you have a dream, you have a responsibility to yourself to make it come true; because if you don't, you're just a dreamer" Marco Pierre White
As much as I love sweet biscuits, there certainly is a place in my life for savoury biscuits too. I knew I was onto a good thing when I originally made these to share as a “girls drinks night” a couple of weeks ago, and everyone seemed to love them. At that time I used…
I have lots of “foodie heroes” that I look to for inspiration, and Huge Fearnley-Whittingstall of River Cottage (UK) fame is definitely one of them. I have all of his cookbooks, and in particular I love his “Veg Every Day” book which was released in 2011 (see here). So on page 51 of that book, Hugh…
Mum and I shared a love of food and cooking, but it was only as I got older and had my own family that I realised just how much I had learned from watching mum in the kitchen as a youngster. There are so many wonderful food memories that I have with mum, but one…
The boys in my family are meat eaters, yet the girls (including me) eat very little meat. So if I am going to expect the whole family to sit together and eat a dish I make … without meat … it has to have lots of flavour to satisfy their taste buds. So when thinking…

I am definitely a “meringue” girl … and I love my meringues crisp on the outside, with a slight chew in the middle. Usually I make my meringue as a Pavlova (see here), but some years ago I had taken a copy of a recipe from an Italian website (see here … they do everything…
I just can’t decide what I prefer … the flat filled biscuits, or the round filled biscuits. Family and friends are also having the same problem, so I have decided to give you both options and you can decide what you prefer yourself. When developing this recipe I wanted a “bite size” biscuit, something small…
If you are a bread lover like me, and make your own sourdough, then you are going to want to try this. I am a member of a FB group called Perfect Sourdough (see here) … anyone can join … it is run by Teresa Greenway who offers on-line sourdough classes, and I love being…
