Pasta with Anchovy Sauce

I'm just going through lots of photos on my computer and have realised that there's quite a few recipes that i've done that i haven't done an entry for.  It may take some digging in my memory for what they were like, but i remember this one clearly - it was horrible and this time i'm not sure it was the fault of my cooking.  Just a bad recipe - so bad that i'm not even going to re-produce it here!

Marinated, spatchcocked quail

Yes, my first spatchcocking. Quail is a good place to start because they're easy to handle.

Mixed mushrooms

Another great dish although tricky to find all the ingredients. I had to replace chanterelles and trompettes de mort with shumeji mushrooms and shitake took some finding in wittering.

PS just watched a film on fonts called Helvetica, about the ubiquity of helvetica, and of course, here it is... the Swiss have taken over the world.   Actually, just realised that this isn't Helvetica once published - is just helvetica on my iPhone whilst writing.

Proper English trifle

Wow! This was delicious. I love trifle anyway, but the method of making raspberry sponge sandwiches and the orange caramel topping really takes up a level.

Cannelini beans with garlic and sagesage

We are down at wittering on holiday for a week, so a perfect time to get out the Nigella! Have managed to acquire ingredients for some of the more esoteric recipes- beet greens, venison and quail.

This recipe was great with the ham, and as you can see from the photo was also accompanied by tara's sausage rolls- a delicious lunch!
