Warm Barley & Roast Vegetable Salad
We all know that whole grains are a healthy inclusion in our diets. The attention and effort to cook with them can seem like a faff but when I do I’m always glad I did. The nuttiness of perfectly cooked grains is as welcome an addition to salads as it is with something juicy and slow-cooked.
Chow Chow Pickle
Traditionally this Appalachian preserve captures the last of the summer harvest. It’s sweet and tangy and is great on sandwiches, with anything grilled and even with hard cheese. Make multiple jars so you can share the bounty with friends.
Chilli Apple Jelly
Now just because I can’t eat chilli anymore doesn’t mean others in my life should go without. This jelly has a focussed flavour and its visual clarity means it looks fab too.
