Recipes
Delicious ways to use your harvest.

Preserving eggs in lime water when the flock slows down. A traditional method that actually works.
Apple crumble
The best use for an apple harvest, in my opinion. A simple, reliable crumble that never disappoints.
Making Nana Retter’s Fruit Cake
Last Christmas I joined a long line of women who have made this cake. My great grandmother’s recipe, finally made.
Gran Shirley’s Sally Lunn
Gran Shirley’s answer to a potato glut turns out to be delicious. Worth making even without the glut.

Carrots and thyme are found in many gardens. This simple glaze makes them shine.
