Recipe of the Week: Toffee Apple Crumble

Toffee Apple Crumble

Crumble Night

 

‘Crumble Night’ was an almost weekly event with my university flatmates and me, where we took turns to make our favourite pud to share.

It was a love we all had in common, helping to form our friendships for the next three years and beyond.

Whilst it may not be all that great for the waistline to enjoy every day, crumble reminds me of those autumnal evenings and brings a smile to my face.

I may have to resurrect this tasty tradition in our house!

Toffee Apple Crumble, a gorgeous recipe from the 2021 Dairy Diary is the perfect way to begin the season, now that the nights are growing darker and the golden leaves start to fall.

Best served with custard or cream of course!

Recipe of the Week: Pan-Fried Pork with Apple Slaw

Pan-Fried Pork with Apple Slaw

It’s estimated that there are over 2½ thousand varieties of apple in the UK, and 7,000 worldwide!

 

My own Grandad, in fact, created his own variety of apple, named RuthLyn after his two daughters. I wonder if the apple tree is still there? I hope so.

Apples were introduced to Britain by the Romans, who first discovered them growing in Syria.

The Romans were integral in spreading the fruit worldwide, using the Silk Road as a means of transport from East to West.

The popularity of cultivating apples grew in Victorian times, with the creation of many new varieties. I’m a huge fan of the Cox apple, though of course Bramleys make a great crumble. What’s your favourite?

Delicious in sweet and savoury dishes, in our gorgeous new cookbook; A Zest for Life, we pair apple with pork in a delicious crunchy slaw.

Recipe of the Week: Frying Pan Clafoutis

Frying Pan Clafoutis

Clafoutis is a baked French dessert

 

It is a speciality of the Limousin region. The name is said to come from the Occitan dialect word claufir, meaning to cover or fill.

Fruit, traditionally cherries, is arranged in a buttered dish and covered with a thick batter and cooked until only just set.

Our recipe – from A Zest for Life – uses autumnal fruit instead of cherries and adds a cheeky dash of Calvados. There are more delicious autumnal recipes in this month’s recipe collection.

Enjoy Seasonal Produce

Seared Salmon with Quick-Pickled Veg

During the past few months, our local farm shop (which also happens to be our nearest) has been invaluable.

I think that shopping locally has become more important to us all, and to be able to enjoy locally grown produce is something that many of us would also like to embrace.

To enjoy British-grown produce, eating seasonally is essential, and in August we’re particularly lucky to have a wealth of ingredients to choose from.

There are fragrant tomatoes, crisp radishes and plump raspberries to name but a few. Take a look at our Seasonal Food Calendar for more info.

 

And this scrumptious salmon recipe from the 2021 Dairy Diary uses lots of seasonal ingredients. Just omit the avocado if you want to only buy British as I don’t think we can grow them in our climate.

This is just one of many amazing recipes in the 2021 diary, which is available to buy online now, or from your milkman soon.
