I make a lovely honey mousse – yes, I know I shouldn’t be saying it myself – but it has a really luscious but melting texture..
n the lead-up to a wedding in the family, (catering for a completely gluten-free reception for 40 people, but more of that later) my husband came home with some shopping, beaming, because he’d managed to score 14 punnets of beautiful strawberries for $7.50...

It’s fabulous with prosciutto, salumi, ripe tomatoes tossed in olive oil, on a pizza, in a pasta and a little more unusually, but no less deliciously, in our recipe for Burrata with Edamame, Sweet Peas and Crunchy Chilli Shallots ….
Most of our recipes for pastry - and we do have a few of them on the blog – are made with a blend of flours that work together to replicate the characteristics of wheat flour. This one is unusual because it uses only buckwheat flour, along with the usual butter, sugar, egg, etc. Whether it’s serendipity, chemistry or both, the buckwheat flour behaves beautifully, just like wheat ….
These Orange, Almond and Vanilla biscuits are delicious and can be made in any shape and iced in any way for any occasion.

A jar of this glowing, orange-gold condiment will speak to you every time you open the fridge. What will it be today? Romesco Sauce with a piece of grilled fish? Dressing some barbecued chicken? Smothering a perfectly boiled egg? I love it spooned over some charred asparagus or beans and topped with some roasted nuts. Simple and tasty. The essence of Spanish cuisine ….
