Orange Birch Bolete this morning. Looks great on the top, completely manky underneath! That’s the way it goes sometimes.

Dryad’s Saddle, Beefsteak fungus and Orange Birch Bolete. All found in mixed woodland, South East England. Has anyone had any luck cooking the Dryads Saddle?

Orange Birch Boletus in the woods this morning, unfortunately already full of insects. Bit of rain will soon get a few popping up!

That’s nature for you.....

My favoured way of preserving wild mushrooms, cook them off in butter & olive oil then freeze until required.

Not a bad start! Brown Birch Bolete.

Obsessed with Pomegranate Molasses! Fantastic “top shelf” ingredient for marinades, dressings and dips. Where’ve you been all my life!

Our bantams are table ready! @ Broad Oak (Brede), East Sussex

This isn’t bad either! Don’t normally go for bottled beer (as opposed to lager), but this is as good as the draught version. Delicious!

I’d forgotten how fab a cold can of Lilt is!

More oyster mushrooms down the woods this afternoon. @ Broad Oak (Brede), East Sussex

The end result of 4 days filming in Sussex we were asked to cater for. Great fun, and Jeremy didn't give me a black eye!

When you find a lost and forgotten box of “Ready Brek” at the back of the cupboard, don’t throw it away, make bread with it! This is a standard white loaf with 20% Ready Brek, extra yeast to help the lift and a bit of golden syrup in the mix to keep the breakfast vibe going. @ Broad Oak (Brede), East Sussex

Starting the week with a very summery Rosemary, Pinenut & Sea Salt sourdough Focaccia. Perfect accompaniment to the Gazpacho we’re having later. @ Broad Oak (Brede), East Sussex
