Anyhoo fab opportunity to surround myself with recipe books & have an uninterrupted hour or so looking for inspiration for Sunday's FM at Market Drayton.
My shed is aromatic with the gorgeous smell of freshly drying, home-grown garlic & I'm frantically searching for the perfect recipe idea to do it justice.
Apparently the strawberries on the allotment, that I didn't expect to fruit this first year, are abundant thanks to Tony our plot neighbour and his watering efforts while we've been away. I'll be popping up this morning once a more civilised hour has been reached!
Thinking a strawberry & redcurrant jam combo? And how about rhubarb & orange chutney? I have had an amazing amount of rhubarb in the garden and that will be a wonderful change from jam this year.
BUT, I have just got to make some Tobago Pepper Sauce after almost losing the enamel off my teeth & skin off my tongue while we were there last month. Mother's milk to the Trinibagans...slow painful death to lightweights like Mr P & myself! My chili-freaks at MD will love it!
Scotch Bonnet & green chillies...one recipe calls for 45 of them!
As I value my lovely preserving, pan I won't be following that particular recipe!
