July Market Dates

Hello -


It's great to see people are still very much into potted pies even though it is now very much summer! The new recipes seem to be being very well received, all the feedback is very welcome. I can reassure those that are disgruntled as to the whereabouts of the Gammon, Apple and Parsnip recipe - it will be back on in the autumn!


I'm sorry to say the second week of July I will not be at market. I have some very important engagements to attend to which require the use of the van. I am able to provide home deliveries to people living in Pimlico/Queens Park on the first weekend of July (3rd and 4th) and the third weekend (17th and 18th) if necessary, so please get in touch if so. Apologies!

New Summer Recipes

Hello,

I hope everybody has been enjoying the weather! It's been 27/28 degrees in London and absolutely sweltering at the farmers markets - good to see potted pies are still popular at this time of year!

However it's time for a change for the summer as far as recipes are concerned, with the Gammon and Oxford Blue pie taking a back seat until the autumn, although The Beef recipe will be on for a few more weeks, so come and try it before it goes! Good news - the chicken recipe will continue undisturbed throughout the year.

The new recipes are as follows:

1. BRAISED LAMB SHANKS WITH ORANGE AND HARICOT BEANS

Slow cooked shanks with carrot, celery and onion and garlic simmered with fresh orange juice and zest, roast chicken stock, white wine and haricot beans. It has a very citrus-y lightness that works really well...

2. GRIDDLED SUMMER VEGETABLES WITH LEMON, ROAST GARLIC AND GOATS CHEESE

Griddled Aubergine and Courgette with roasted garlic and cherry tomatoes, lemon, olive oil, toasted pine nuts and goats cheese.

See you at the market!
