Eat Me Kitchen

…and it was a pleasure! Evie works in food pr and wanted a fun and visual vibe for her 30th birthday party. The theme was A Midsummer Night’s Dream, she looked amazing (and only slightly upstaged by her Dad in his sequin suit & cowboy boots ;)! We served canapés by the river, bavette steak and big salads for dinner, followed my two crazy meringue towers. Thank you for the booking @eviehorsell & Happy Birthday!! And, thank you, Jemma & Jackie for FOH, you are always fabulous 🙏

I added the Rhubarb Water Kefir recipe to my highlights (bottom left)…let me know if you make it, or have any questions 🫧

I put the wild garlic bud pickle recipe into my highlights below…and, to answer a couple of questions: 🌱Yes, you can just heat all the pickling ingredients together and pour over the buds & seal, but I think marinating them in the brine first makes them last longer, keep their colour and crisp up a bit! 🌱If your pickle goes fizzy & starts fermenting, don’t panic or the throw it away…just ‘burp’ it by loosening the cap and keep it in the fridge, it will settle down. Any more Qs, just message me. My April series will be Rhubarb, starting on my Stories tomorrow… #pickles #recipe #spring #wildgarlic #rhubarb

I’ve just put the easy quick pickle recipe from my stories into a highlight below, so you can follow along, use up your kitchen veg scraps & always have something tasty in the fridge: 🌶️🥕🥦🧅🫑 Let me know what you make! #recipe #recipeshare #pickles #nomorewaste

We had such a great day at ArtisOn today running our ‘Summer Dining’ workshop today. The weather was perfect & we demo’d doable, make ahead dishes, lit the Kadai and bbq’d, chatted & ate loads of food for about four hours! Some highlights: Smoked mackerel & lettuce cup canapés; celeriac steaks; tandoori cauliflower, harissa feta, veg & halloumi kebabs; marinated chicken; slaw; tahini sauce; pesto mushrooms; charred beetroot, baby leeks & peppers; roast peaches & deconstructed cheesecake. Won’t need to eat for another week, thanks so much everyone who came, you were such a great group 🔥 our next workshop is on July 18th & we will be showing you gluten & dairy free dishes. If you’d like to book contact me here or message Kimberley @pickledradishfeasts.

Snaps from our Salad, Dressings & Pickles workshop in North Yorkshire today. It was quite daunting to host fourteen people on the first one of the year, and we were thrilled that some had travelled from quite a long way to join us. They were a great bunch & everyone said they’d had a fun & informative day, so thanks very much for coming! 🙌🏻🥗 We will be running workshops together under the umbrella collaboration #yorkshireprepkitchen once a month for the rest of the year. If you are interested in joining us the details & Eventbrite links to book are coming later this week. Thanks Kimberley @pickledradishfeasts, I actually LOVE you! 👩🏻‍🍳😍
