BACONNAISE, DULSE AND ME!

BACONNAISE, DULSE AND ME!
Baconnaise! Well rather than go shopping for all those bits and pieces one runs out of periodically, I decided to clean out the fridge and do a bit of home made pantry inventory…so on a busy Saturday I not only managed to navigate an early start at the dentist with two (yes two at once!) kids...

PULLA MY LEG, THIS MUST BE BRIOCHE!

PULLA MY LEG, THIS MUST BE BRIOCHE!
Is it Brioche? Or Pulla? Apparently Pulla is Finland’s answer to Brioche, in a braid…and based on this delicately fragranced butter rich bread, I would say they did one better…(Are the Norse Gods listening?) This version, sporting saffron and cardamom, is a beautiful colour and the...

POWER TO THE PEOPLE…

POWER TO THE PEOPLE…
Persian Power Bars I have been twiddling around with the idea of power bars for sometime as the ones you can buy are; A) nasty tasting B) bad for you in that they have masses of additives and C) because I have a Thermomix and that is what I do!

POPPING SINGLE HANDEDLY!

POPPING SINGLE HANDEDLY!
Well I have a work related injury, and it is impeding my typing, but never my cooking! I sliced my fore finger open like I was filleting a fish!
