Caramelised Fennel Tart

Cristina from La Cucina di Cristina is hosting both the English and Italian editions of Weekend Herb Blogging as I'm well and truly back into the chill of winter, I thought I'd feature the warmth of fennel.It took me a while to truly appreciate fennel - aniseed hasn't been a favourite flavour but I think as you evolve so to does your taste.

You do get quite a bit of variation within the orange, so

From their appearance and colour, texture and taste, they are the type of tomato that is as close to perfect as you can get.

Spezzatino di Bufala

There's been a few changes in Alba since I was last here six months ago and one of the more pleasing changes appeared before me in a sign...no not the truffle sign, the Buffalo one.There's now a Buffalo butcher in town which means easy access to locally grown Buffalo and a full range of meat and dairy products, including a rather excellent Buffalo milk.Now I'm sure this is going to be a regular ha

Elena from Zibaldone Culinario is hosting Weekend Herb Blogging and this week I really couldn't go past the first Morels of the season.Here in Italy they are known by the name Morchella or Spugnola.

Mozzarella in Carrozza

It might surprise some to know that Nigella didn't invent Mozzarella in Carrozza - it's actually a traditional dish from Campania. From what I've read it initially used stale bread (pane raffermo) so I'm not quite sure how that morphed into using the equivalent of white supermarket bread. There are a few rules with this dish - when it comes to the mozzarella, buffalo is preferred. It is a&nbs

A vibrant condiment called Zhoug - you might also see it called "green harissa" but I think it is more like a hot chermoula. While harissa gets its heat from dried red chillies, the warmth in

You can't fully celebrate Easter without some Hot Cross Buns and this year I'd thought I'd make my own. For this batch, I've tinkered around a little with this recipe by Paul Hollywood.I'm not a candied peel fan, so I've replaced it with dried apricots - I find that the orange zest intensifies their flavour. I've also used soft brown sugar as I like its richer taste. Aesthetically, I haven't made
