This week’s Dinner for Two is all about Spanish cuisine; in particular albondgas, patatas bravas & crema Catalana. We’ll also be cooking espanicas con garbanzo, gambas ajillo, and the timeless classic, gazpacho. It’s the perfect dinner to celebrate summer! One of the greatest things about Spanish cuisine is its authenticity. It doesn’t try to impress, […]
I cannot tell you how many times I’ve longed for proper homemade granola muesli bars. I remember chomping down on them as a kid, and feeling satisfied after I’d finished. Somehow, the commercial bars these days just don’t live up to that memory. Maybe it’s the trick of time – the bars aren’t getting smaller, […]
Easter in Greece is amazing, and the tsoureki bread is absolutely delicious! The first time I encountered this traditional holiday bread was 4 years ago – on my first pilgrimage to Greece. It was a trip I’d longed to do since before I was a teenager, and finally the opportunity presented itself. Sure, I’d seen […]
When I was growing up, every Easter the shops would be filled with Hot Cross Buns, they’d start magically appearing as soon as Christmas was done. They were good, but nothing beat the ones my Mum would make – fresh from the oven, the kitchen filling with their delicious aroma. There’s nothing quite like them; […]
It was Shrove Tuesday this week (or Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras as you may also know it), and that means pancakes, crepes, pikelets and blinis are on the menu! Before the long days of Lent, it’s time to live it up and lash out on luxury; eggs and butter! Pancakes are one of the first dishes […]
Bonjour! This week’s cook-a-long with Chef Kit is all about two breakfast classics; Croque Monsieur and French Toast. Both of these menu items are famous the world ’round. Why? Because they’re absolutely delicious! They’re also deceptively easy to make. In fact, they’re so easy you’ll be shocked! Both use minimal ingredients, are a great way […]
It’s a time-honoured past-time, festive baking for the holidays and especially for Christmas. Whether it’s cookies waiting to be iced, or the smell of mulled drinks which fill the air, the holidays are always tasty! Here at Larder Pantry and Garden, we love a good baking session. We also love a nice drink to enjoy […]
During the long, cold winter evenings, is there anything more comforting than a bowl of the hot and sweet classic American dessert, peach cobbler? We’re convinced it’s one of the best, and timeless as well, desserts you’ll ever come across. It’s also one of this week’s Cook-a-Long dishes at our Larder Pantry online event on […]
It’s Autumn here, and it’s the perfect weather for soup! This week’s class over on Eventbrite (grab a ticket if you haven’t already, it’s FREE!) is focusing on three great soups: a Roasted Tomato, Caramelised Butternut, and our popular French Onion soup. Making soup is really easy. You don’t need a lot of fancy equipment, […]
