Midlands Kitchen: Peach jelly cake
http://midlandskitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/peach-jelly-cake.html
My life through food. Sunday, May 30, 2010. This cake reminds me of my childhood. It was probably the very first one that I made myself when I was about 7 years old, without any help from my mum or granny. And many times after that. It is really easy to make and there is no need for special ingredients, everything is usually in the cupboard. 175g soft unsalted butter. 1 tbsp vanilla extract. 100ml buttermilk or thin yogurt. You can use any suitable fruit in syrup. June 26, 2010 at 11:00 AM. I LOVE this k...

Midlands Kitchen: June 2010
http://midlandskitchen.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
My life through food. Wednesday, June 30, 2010. I am definitely enjoying my garden this year. We have been blessed with nice weather so far and thanks to that everything is growing and flowering like mad. My tomatoes have just started to form, I have to give them couple more weeks. Well, I was craving tomato pasta right now so I got inspired by beautiful Sophie Dahl. I used her Roasted tomato soup as base for sauce and shop-bought cherry tomatoes. Meanwhile cook the pasta (I used tagliatelle).

Midlands Kitchen: Herbs in early spring
http://midlandskitchen.blogspot.com/2010/05/herbs-in-early-spring.html
My life through food. Tuesday, May 4, 2010. Herbs in early spring. Spring is such a delightful time of year. Particularly for those who - like me - love gardening. First edible results of your hard work are ready to be picked. Strong peppery flavour is exceptionally good in salads, with pasta and last year I even made a batch of rocket and walnut pesto. Everything in my garden is blooming, bees are busy and I can look forward to tomatoes, courgettes and peppers. May 13, 2010 at 3:24 PM. Subscribe to: Pos...

My life through food. Monday, December 21, 2009. New one in the house! This year Christmas came early for me. Our old coffee machine has been on strike for longer period of time, so we decided instead of having it repaired (again! This is the first ever espresso made in new coffe mashine and the first cappucino. Not bad for the first time, is it? With nice cup of coffee it feels like home. Tuesday, December 1, 2009.

Midlands Kitchen: September 2009
http://midlandskitchen.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
My life through food. Tuesday, September 15, 2009. Indian summer Sunday lunch. We had a lovely glimpse of Indian summer during last weekend. After chilly night and foggy morning sunny day followed. I went cycling to Emo Court. My usual 14 km route - on both Saturday and Sunday and did a fair bit of gardening on Saturday. Come Sunday midday and I was so, so tired that wanted nothing more than nice, uncomplicated seasonal meal in the garden followed by fruity dessert. Tuesday, September 8, 2009. One of my ...

Midlands Kitchen: What to eat in Zurich
http://midlandskitchen.blogspot.com/2010/03/what-to-eat-in-zurich.html
My life through food. Friday, March 26, 2010. What to eat in Zurich. Macaroons and cheese. And if you have more time, get some fondue, roesti, sauerkraft, sausages or visit Michelin star restaurant. So I had fondue in my brother's place, sausages with sauerkraft and roesti (potato pancake) in lovely gastropub just off Bahnhofstrasse and amazing experience in Michelin star restaurant mesa. As usually the important part came - what to bring home. If you are like me - love chocolate. And I can see why. ...

Midlands Kitchen: April 2010
http://midlandskitchen.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
My life through food. Tuesday, April 27, 2010. Garden in early spring. Gardening became my new passion. I grew up as a city girl, the best way how to get fresh fruit and veg was to go to the farmers market. When we were looking for The House to buy for ourselves here in Ireland, the size and orientation of the garden was a major issue. Finally we managed to find good size South West facing garden. This year it looks pretty good too. Next time: vegetable and herbs. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Midlands Kitchen: October 2009
http://midlandskitchen.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
My life through food. Tuesday, October 20, 2009. Here it is - real autumn. Last week we even experienced some grass frost, so I decided to move chillies from the greenhouse into the house. Tomatoes are doing better on windowsill and the only vegetable left in the garden is carrots, kale, broccoli and some lettuce in polytunnel. On my way to Emo Court. Off course, the first thing which came to my mind was blackberry muffin. I used slightly adapted recipe from my Kitchen Aid Mixer Cookbook. 5-7 tbsp vanill...
