Notes about Recipes in this book

• Lemon polenta cake with mascarpone and lemon curd

  • Jane on March 23, 2020

    I loved the look of this cake for a Mother's Day treat for my 92 yo mother. I could not get polenta anywhere so I ended up making Melissa Clark's Lemon almond cake but subbed the glaze for that cake with this cake's topping. It felt very extravagant using 6 eggs but the cake also got shared with neighbors under quarantine and my mother's carers. It's definitely a special occasion cake - very rich. I skipped the syrup soaking, not a fan of that. The topping from this recipe was easy and very pretty.

• Pea salad with avocado

    This was delicious and easy to prepare. Lots of textures and flavours, easily made ahead and served at room temperature. I'd make this again..
