Cookery

This pie is made with the Greek rustic pastry, It is a thicker pastry than is commonly used which is the very fine pastry sheets you layer up. 

Choggia, Candy, Cylindra beets, Albino and Golden Detroit’s, Bassono - there are a world of colours, varieties, textures and flavours of beetroots.

With smoked salmon and green olive pate. A delicious light lunch, aperitivo or antipasti.    

A reflection of the Mediterranean trinity of pasta, legumes and olive oil. 

One of the oldest traditional English desserts.

In Puglia zucchini flowers keep coming through summer into September when the sage leaves are thick and full. 

This gelato is deep scarlet in colour and has an amazing flavour of honey nectar and berries.

We usually make Pesto in batches when it’s at its best in the garden. If you want to preserve it for later in the year, add a little extra salt.

Perfect on a wintery day
