Week beginning December 10th - Golden Saxifrage and Black Mustard Leaf

Most weeks I feature something new and different from our forager supplier. One of the reasons I like to use foraged items is because it highlights local and mostly forgotten ingredients. These foraged ingredients are harvested from within the UK and mostly picked in there natural environment, this means no artificial housing or pesticides. The best part is the soil in which these plants grow are rich in vitamins and minerals. Unlike supermarket vegetables where the soil has been recycled and most nutritional value has been diluted over time.

Here are two leafy foraged greens which are featured in this weeks menu.

Black Mustard: Is a annual plant that can grow up to three meters high and commonly found on sea cliffs and river banks. The raw leaves have a strong, warm and lingering flavour. Best served with strong flavours and fatty meats.

Golden Saxifrage: a native perennial and slightly hairy in appearance. Leaves can be used in salads or as a garnish and have a good succulent texture; the flavour is a mild citrus with a slight bitterness.

Please enjoy this weeks menu, because we have enjoyed making it and we will enjoy serving it to you.

Week beginning November 26th - Lamingtons

So we have changed the layout of our website a bit, if you are a regular here you will see that the blog now has it's own little place, while the menu is still here but will have a littel bit about the food we are serving each week. This week, it's lamingtons.

It's our favourite time of the month, perhaps not Chef Jared's, but certainly all of ours as we are back for payday lamingtons on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. We only do these once a month as the way we make them is fairly labour intensive, plus it's great to be able to have a treat when you get paid isn't it?

Please enjoy this weeks menu, because we have enjoyed making it and we will enjoy serving it to you.
