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 2019 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.

Tomorrow, Monday 12 April, begins the next stage of getting our lives back in some semblance of normality. We can move about and stay in rentals, those lucky enough to own a second home, can visit it. We can eat outside at restaurants but the big excitement for me, is a planned visit to Mousehole,…

How lucky we were with the Easter weather and so good to be able to feast with family outside in the garden. Treat of the week is the first asparagus of the season. Read on for tips and advice on staying sane in our lock down kitchens. S Easter Sunday lunch of roast Herefordshire hogget…

28 March 21

A week that ends with the Easter bank holiday weekend but began with the beginning of the end of Lock Down 3. So Monday is lunch in the garden with friends. We feasted on prawn cocktail, smoked haddock risotto and roast rhubarb cocktail. What a joy to sit across a table with friends and then…

21 March 21

As I write it is the day that lock down unlocks so this is the last week before we can meet friends and family outside but only six round the table. So, a last week of two at my table but lots of treats, from a simple but spectacular Leek and Potato Soup with Horseradish,…

We’ve been eating well this week, a lemony mince pork pie, lovely leftovers soup, bistro steak frites and Cornish seafood in www.rickstein.com Fresh Fish Box Large. Read all about it here. S Early morning knock at the door and there is No 1 son and his No 1 son bearing Mothering Sunday gifts: a bouquet…

A River Café home delivery is always a treat but the Vegetarian Box kept on giving, making several meals rather than one blow-out. Meal of the week, though, was a take on their crab linguine.   S Dipping into the Vegetarian Box from the River Café produced a bulging bag labelled agretti (Monk’s Beard to…

Boris has spoken, told us about his road map out of Lock Down and it’s long and slow. Easter is off, the country unlocked for UK holiday rentals the following week, 11 April. Sadly, our Easter in Rye is not going to happen but happily we have a trip to Mousehole looming. The weather is…

21 Feb 21

Here we are rattling towards the end of this short month and tomorrow Boris is speaking to the nation about his Lock Down road map. I suspect it won’t change my life much although my grandsons might be back in my life soon and WE can venture out, hopefully to a restaurant or two. Big…

14 Feb 21

Roast Chicken and Other Stories gets a Valentine love-in thanks to Jay Rayner and we feast on super-easy soup, chicken, rice and white bean leftovers and the wok comes out to cook a lovely egg fried rice stir fry with prawns. S I awoke to a big box by my side of the bed and…

7 Feb 21

A week of freezing temperatures, ice and snow, so hearty soups, stews and simple suppers are the order of the day. Don’t forget Moules Mariniere, one of the simplest, fastest, best value treats I know.  S Ocado comes knocking again and we’ve seriously over ordered on carrots. I don’t mind because it’s surprising how often…
