Category: My Week In Food

My Week in Food is a diary of my food shopping, cooking and eating out. I mention favourite websites, food shops, restaurants and food and drink related people and sometimes give related recipes. Most often, though, the recipe comes in a note form rather than a formulated recipe although there is always enough detail to get you cooking. Actual recipes are in the Recipes section of the website.

My Week in Food started Sunday 23 June and despite the occasional omission, usually caused by my useless grasp of WordPress, I’ve kept it up every week, although I have been late posting. Some weeks are more interesting than others but there is always something worth reading about and it’s a backlog worth dipping in and out of, often with mini-essays on various aspects of food.

The whole point of this column is to inspire, jogging your memory with old favourites, new ways of tackling old favourites and, most particularly, making something delicious from the store cupboard. It’s great when there is an Ocado slot although I’m going to try a friend’s suggestion of on-line shop and collect at Waitrose. I…

The start of the second week of Lock Down 3, so not a huge amount of excitement this week. The highlight, when I’m not on the blower (6.30, glass in hand, is prime zoom time amongst my friends), I’m glued to Rick Stein’s Cornwall (BBC 2 and available to watch and recipes to cook via…

As I write, we are starting the first full week of Lock Down 3, coming hot on the heels of and not much different from Tier 4. Like so many freelancers, I am struggling with my accounts for the financial year and have just come off the phone after one of those draining sessions with…

I rarely succeed but aim to get everything under control in advance when there are guests coming for a meal and Sunday’s lunch party was no exception. I prepped then made the main course – Boeuf Bourguignonne – in advance so flavours had a chance to mature and decided against making a pudding in favour…

I’ve just heard someone on the radio talking about post lock-down early Christmas. Everyone, apparently, is rushing out to buy their tree and go mad with Christmas lights. Wreaths are even more of a big thing. It’s certainly happened around where I live; almost every house, shop and hotel is way ahead with Christmas decorations….

Welcome back to My Week In Food and what a day to start; Stir Up Sunday and my recipe for Roast Turkey, Chestnut and Sausage Stuffing, and Gravy is on the cover of a Christmas food supplement in today’s Observer. If you don’t have a copy, I found it very easily by googling my name…

20 Nov 20

This is my first My Week in Food for ages. It’s a short one but prompted by the realisation that I cook far more than I post on the recipe section of the website and I have tips and ideas that I’d like to pass on. This post is really a teaser, more of a…

I’m settling back into writing My Week In Food after an on-off, mainly off, patch restricting myself to cooking and writing recipes, having no taste to write a journal of my week. I haven’t felt I have much to say and seem to spend an awful of my time cleaning, turning into a right regular…

The heat-wave is back, muggy and unpleasant, too hot and sweaty to sit in, so we’re all craving water to dip our feet into. My next door neighbours bought the deepest, biggest garden blow-up pool I’ve ever seen early in lock down and their children and friends jump in and out of it all day…

26 July 20

What I miss most about lockdown is my regular chaotic way of food shopping that inspires my cooking. It might be a wander round my local Farmers Market, gazing into the butcher or fishmonger’s window, or bargains at my favourite high road fruit and veg stall. When I am stuck for cookery inspiration, food shopping…
