I've Moved....

This is just a quick post to say that I've moved my blog to my own domain. Please come and check it out at:www.withknifeandfork.comAll the posts that are here on blogger are there too but all new posts will be on the new domain. The most recent post is on the #BPRSummit on Monday 10 August where UK food bloggers and PR's met to discuss how they might forge better relationships. Read it hereHope

A walk on the wild side

“Here, turn right here, this has got to be it”.We swerve round the corner and bounce along the driveway. “Nice pond, but where’s the big house?” There’s plenty of rolling parkland and a cluster of outbuildings but no grand house to be seen.There’s also a tall affable looking chap wearing wellies and a big chunky jumper so we slow up and roll down the window. “Here for the food foraging?” he says,

Feeling flowery in veggie heaven

Last week I took part in Dan of Food Urchin’s dinner blogging challenge (called ‘Where’s my pork chop?’). Basically I cooked him some dinner and in return I got, well these:There loads of potatoes, beans and courgettes hiding under the kaleI’m going to be blogging what I cooked for Dan in a separate post so check back for that in the next few days. Here I want to tell you some of what I’ve done

Boxed in

About a month ago I was contacted by the PR firm for Abel & Cole asking if I’d like to try one of their veg boxes for free, well in exchange for doing a review of it on my blog, after all nothing is truly free; although I figured they’d have a hard time trying to enforce the contract if I just scoffed the food then did nothing.Legal matters aside there was, of course, the issue of whether to

An unexpected glut of cherry plums

Of what? Of cherry plums. What are they then?The simple answer is they are plums that look like cherries and the trees can be found planted in many a street and garden mostly across the southern half of the country.But you want to know more than that don’t you? Well then if you are sitting comfortably I shall begin.© Danielle Harlow - Fotolia.comWe’ve lived in our house for nearly 12 years and

About me
I'm obsessed with food - buying it, eating it, cooking it, trying new things, growing it, reading about it. My blog is about sharing this obsession with others and features recipes, products I've tried, places I've eaten, a bit of history, a bit of science - basically whatever grabs my attention as I continually think food. I love getting feedback so please feel free to comment on my blog posts.

Very easy ice cream

As the sun has been out quite a bit over the last few weeks my mind turned to ice cream making. I don’t make lots of desserts or do lots of baking – I enjoy it but we just don’t eat dessert that often so it kind of gets wasted (this is not some ‘health’ or ‘no sugar’ things its just I prefer munching on savoury stuff these days); but every now and then a sweet dish is just what’s needed.

Ingredients

rhubarb - a couple of sticks (you could use any other fruit, you need enough to give about 100m… Continue

The big hot cross bun survey....

Have some fun and join in my poll on how you have your hot cross bun........

Thank you for the nice comments on my photos Linda. I got a new camera for my birthday last year. It is a Fuji finepix s8000fd digital camera. It has a natural setting that is good for natural light and a really long lense for macro settings. Not too bad price really.
