Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Cherry drizzle cake

    • hillsboroks on August 01, 2020

      This cake sounded so good but was a bit of a disappointment. I used Bob's Red Mill almond flour for the ground almonds and their fine cornmeal for the polenta but made no other substitutions. The cake itself was done after 70 minutes and I followed the suggestion in the recipe header to sprinkle 3 tablespoons of sugar on the top before poking it and adding the cherry drizzle sauce. The cake turned to have a very sandy, grainy texture that was distracting. The honey in the cherry sauce overpowered both the cherries and elderflower cordial so that the main flavor of sauce and cake was honey. If I made this again I might leave out or cut way back on the honey. I used a local clover honey. All in all not one of my favorite cakes. I would try the cherry sauce (minus the honey) with an almond pound cake next time.

  • Baked aubergines, freekeh, tomato sauce and sheep's cheese Bechamel

    • Foodycat on October 18, 2021

      I made 2 medium aubergines as a substantial main meal for 2 people (50g freekeh, everything else halved). It was very good, but next time I would make the pickles to accompany - it needed something fresh and zingy.
