Delicious ways to use your harvest.
Smoking paprika
My paprika crop is maturing and it’s time to get creative with it!

One of my most popular recipes is now even better!
Home-grown peanut butter
After 3 years and many, many hours of work, I finally get to sit down to my own home-grown, home-made peanut butter.
Gran Shirley’s quick pickle
An easy-to-prepare vegetable accompaniment for summer meals.
Sponge-top pudding
Use your fruit harvests by making this simple comforting dessert on these dark winter nights.

My favourite way to use our apple harvest.
Making Nana Retter’s Fruit Cake
Last Christmas I joined a long line of women in my family who have made my great grandmother’s fruit cake.
Gran Shirley’s Sally Lunn
We’ve got too many potatoes so I’m looking for new ways to use them. Turns out, my Gran had a delicious way around a potato glut.
Citrus meringue pie
A light and deceptively simple dessert that can be made in a range of flavour combinations depending on what’s available and what sounds yum!
Garlic and rosemary salt
I’m always looking for ways to use and store my garlic. Garlic salt is one of my favourites. The addition of rosemary really makes it pop!
