Still going with wonderful pink rhubarb 💕 I’ve made rhubarb infused gin 💕 rhubarb cake and my favourite of favourites rhubarb crumble 💕 today I made these Rhubarb, Rosewater & Pistachio Galettes 💕 they are a little more rustic than maybe they should be 🤷‍♀️😂 but when I prepped I had loads of time then when it came to baking I had less time than I thought 🙈 they were still delicious😋 I sat them on my Aga to keep warm then served them with rosewater and pistachio cream 💕 ... when using rosewater remember less is more! you’re after just a hint! If you can, taste as you go along! ... This beautiful forced rhubarb has the cheer of spring but still has the cosy comfort of winter ~ just lovely! ... . . . #larderandlife #mylondonkitchen #foodoftheday #truecooks #goodeats #foodphotography #forkfeed #thekitchn #homemade #foodstyling #kitchenstories #mytable #foodshare #fooddiary #lifeandthyme #realsimple #homemade #momentsmine #scrumptiouskitchen #foodblog #delicious #britainsbesthomecooks_ #mykitchentable #delicious #homebaked #treat #eattheseasons
If like me you love rhubarb or if you know a rhubarb lover then this Rhubarb and Cardamom Custard Cake is a must! 💕 After seeing it on IG last week I’ve not stopped thinking about it! So today I at last made it and it didn’t disappoint 💕 ... It’s not too sweet, the rhubarb adds a lovely sharpness, it looks gorgeous and my kitchen smelt amazing! It’s a simple recipe that delivers a delightful treat! 💕 you may have seen on my stories that the hardest part was waiting for it to cool ready for a taste test! ... The recipe is in Febs Waitrose Mag and available online 💕 ... @waitroseandpartners @waitroseandpartnerspr ... . . . #larderandlife #mylondonkitchen #foodoftheday #truecooks #goodeats #foodphotography #forkfeed #thekitchn #homemade #foodstyling #kitchenstories #mytable #foodshare #fooddiary #lifeandthyme #realsimple #homemade #momentsmine #scrumptiouskitchen #foodblog #delicious #britainsbesthomecooks_ #mykitchentable #eattheseasons #rhubarb #cake #lovetobake #delicious #treat #sharingrecipes
Yesterday was such a grey gloomy day in London which is the perfect day to get baking especially with chocolate!! So I thought I’d try my new individual brownie tin from @masterclassuk which threw me into a bit of a tiss- do I grease the tin? How much mixture? Timings? 🙈 I didn’t grease the tin! I did have mixture leftover and I shortened the timing by about 10mins but kept my eye on them! They worked perfectly! They didn’t stick to the pan which was my biggest concern! ( you may already know all this from my stories!! ) the result 12 squares of deliciousness!! ♡ #ad #gift #larderandlife #mylondonkitchen #foodoftheday #truecooks #goodeats #foodphotography #forkfeed #thekitchn #homemade #foodstyling #kitchenstories #mytable #foodshare #fooddiary #lifeandthyme #realsimple #homemade #momentsmine #scrumptiouskitchen #foodblog #delicious #britainsbesthomecooks_ #mykitchentable #chocolate #teatimetreat #masterclassuk
Treat yourself January is almost over! Next up fill ya boots February!! Today’s treat was a healthy one, homemade Rosemary bread ( see stories ) with the last of my Red Lentil soup! I’ve got soup on repeat here! It’s so easy to have a warming lunch ready with no fuss! Tomorrow I’m trying a new recipe I found - Black Bean which I’m thinking will be delicious but might not look great!! 😂 Do you have favourite soup recipes or do you just make them up as you go along? Whatever you do, keep stocked up and keep warm! ❄️ x
It’s days like this when you’re so happy you have a little stash of Ragu di salsiccia e semi di finocchio ( tomato, sausage and fennel seed ragu ) in the freezer, that just needs warming through! For as long as it takes for the pasta to cook you have a comforting lunch with just the addition of Parmesan, and lots of it!! 😋 Only problem is that was the last lot so I’ll need to get stocked up!!! Does anyone else have favourite cookware? This @lecreusetuk is definitely one of mine! 😍... For anyone that hasn’t tried it, the recipe is on my blog! It’s worth making extra to freeze! 👍🏻 ... Keep warm and toastie it’s brass monkeys out there! 🥶 x
After a very busy week last week! 💍🎉🥂 I’m now thankful for the nothingness that January brings ( who knew🤷‍♀️) to recharge and get ready for the year ahead! ... I’d love a slice of this banana bread right now but this is from last week!!! 😏 ... NOW LETS TALK CAKE TINS!! I get lots of you baking from my blog and so often you tell me the cakes taste delicious but mention they don’t look as good as mine ( your words not mine! 😉) I think I know why this may happen, a 2lb cake tin is a 2lb cake tin right? Wrong!! They can measure different! I learnt my lesson again recently! So the one I use for most of my loaf bakes measures 11 x 21cms I typically have only one like this so I’m on a mission to get more of them, ( so I can double up! ) if you find any please let me know and I will likewise do the same over on my stories!! I could easily write a whole blog on this subject but how boring would that be! 😂.. I hope this helps! x
