This week both our £25 and £15 boxes contain all the ingredients to make one of our favourites soups – Leek and potato. We are big fans of Darina Allen who is a great ambassador for eating seasonally. With only 4 ingredients, this delicious soup just needs a little care and attention to detail. If the leeks are overcooked they can become a little bitter and if the soup is over blended it can become a little gloopy. If you follow the recipe exactly the results are delicious. We have also included a pot of Longley Farm single cream, which takes this recipe to the next level.
We have included new season Spanish pomegranates in both our boxes. There is an old story that the pomegranate has twelve sections representing the twelve months of the year, and another that its hundreds of seeds represent the days of the year. It is only folklore rather than fact, but my dad used to tell us this story and I always think of it when eating pomegranates. You can sprinkle the ruby-red seeds over yoghurt or porridge, add them to a salad, or simply eat them straight from the fruit.
We have also included delicious new season English Red Windsor apples this week, this early season apple is a real favourite, crisp, sweet, juicy with a good old fashioned apple flavour.
The contents of the boxes appear below the gallery.

Our very popular artisan bread will be available from Wednesday onwards. we will have white and seeded sourdough, white and wholemeal cob available every Wednesday and Thursday, Friday and Saturdays we will also have focaccia and French sticks, our bread can sell out very quickly to make sure you aren’t disappointed send us a message or phone the shop on 01457 852456 and we will make sure we save one for you. Bread always seems to be the first thing that people cut out of their diets when trying to cut down, but sourdough not only delivers a tangy flavour that’s perfect for toast and sandwiches, it is good for you, too! The fermentation process for sourdough bread can lead to an increased number of prebiotic and probiotic-like properties, which help improve gut health. It freezes exceptionally well so you won’t be tempted to eat the whole loaf.
