This Sat 27 March I’m planning to bake the following (with certified organic flours, as always) and please remember – all my produce freezes well:
GENUINE SOURDOUGH ‘HEAVIES’
Naturally leavened with no bakers’ yeast and ‘heavy’ only because made with 100% stoneground wholegrain flours (not because sourdough).
570g Stoneground wholegrain rye ‘Borodinsky’ tin loaf with coriander seeds – £3.40
800g Stoneground wholegrain wheat and rye tin loaf – £3.50
BREAD with BAKERS’ YEAST
400g Miracle bread – £3.00
Miracle baps (in bags of four) – £3.00
400g Traditional white – £2.50
800g Traditional white – £3.80
800g Oaty Bread – £3.80 (‘Medium’ brown loaf with a soft crumb that toasts beautifully – and with extra fibre from Shropshire organic oats)
Oaty Barms (in bags of four) – £3.00 (Roughly the same size as Miracle baps)
600g Wheat and rye with caraway seeds – £3.40
400g Wheat and rye with olives and sun-dried tomatoes – £3.00
OTHER YEASTED PRODUCTS
Teacakes (in bags of four) – £3.80
Hot cross buns (in bags of four) – £3.00. Same dough as teacakes. Buns are smaller than tea-cakes and have a paste cross made with certified organic flour and certified organic rapeseed oil. Buns are not glazed so they can be split and popped in your toaster without risk of burning (unless you don’t watch them!)
Giant Chelsea Buns – £1.80 each
CAKES etc
Mini Simnel Cake (made in a baked bean tin) – £4.50 gift wrapped in cellophane – £3.50 in a paper bag. Same recipe as those I baked for Mothering Sunday when I placed crystallised edible flowers from my garden on the cakes. For 27 March you can choose: little balls of marzipan around the top (one for each apostle bar Judas) or a few Cadbury mini-eggs. I’m not offering crystallised flowers.
Walnut Pie – £24 for a whole pie. 3.00 per slice (this is 1/8 of a pie and is easily plenty for 2 portions). If you order more than one slice I will not cut them separately, meaning that you can choose portion size.
Harry’s Cake (for lovers of nuts and ginger) – £16.00 per kg. Whole cakes cost between £7.50 and £9.00. Half-cakes are also available.
VEGGIE SAVOURIES
Parsnip and cashew nut roast (serves 2 as a main course) – suitable for vegetarians. £6 each or 2 for £11. Already cooked. Can be eaten cold or easily reheated. Suitable for freezing. Will keep in your fridge until Wednesday or can be frozen.
Savoury Brioche Tart with tomatoes and basil or with broccoli and stilton. Suitable for vegetarians. Whole rectangular tart – £13 (approx 30 x 20 x 2.5 cm). Half rectangular tart £7. Quarter rectangular tart £3.60. (No round tarts this week.) One quarter is sufficient for two portions. Will keep in your fridge until Wednesday or can be frozen.
Individual potato-topped pies with cheesy naturally-grown leeks from my garden £3.20 each or £6 for 2. BBe Wed or freeze for up to 6 months.
