Speciality Fine Food Fair London [+Video]

Sharing is caring!

Highlights of this year’s Speciality and Find Food Show in Olympia. There wasn’t a noticable new food trend like in previous years where there was an abundance of new coconut water companies, etc. Here are my top discoveries.

This short video has a selection of the new products I came across on the day.

My favourite products are these Salted Egg flavoured snacks by Irvins. Don’t diss the crispy fish skin till you’ve tried it.

Moroccan Orange and radish salad. The simplest rec Moroccan Orange and radish salad. The simplest recipe but oh so delicious. The dressing is just lemon juice, sugar, salt and pepper. I’ve seen variations where they’ve added cinnamon ( but I don’t like cinnamon) and where they’ve sliced the radishes instead of cutting them like this. I’d highly recommend a sprinkle of finishing salt on top, it made the world of difference. Serve it cold. Try it. Your salad world will be greatly enhanced.

Have you been foraging? The hedgerows were laden w Have you been foraging? The hedgerows were laden with these plump blackberries. I picked a ton and made a blackberry sorbet. The result is a dark rich wine colour and utterly delicious. 

The recipe is really simple- you just need some simple syrup, lemon juice and blackberries. And you don’t need an ice cream machine. You’ll find the recipe here: https://www.eatcookexplore.com/easy-blackberry-sorbet-recipe/

I think it’s a must to get lost while you go exploring. You never know what you’ll find.

Today is the UN International Day of the World's I Today is the UN International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples. Did you know that Indigenous Peoples live in all regions of the world and own, occupy or use 22% of global land area (About 500m people who speak almost 7000 languages. 

Many of them face extreme poverty and marginalisation and human rights violations. They have a significant role to play in sustaining the world's diversity of the world's cultural and biological landscape. 

UNESCO works in partnership with indigenous peoples to provide support when facing all these challenges. 

This pic of the Totem poles in Stanley Park, Vancouver. The shortest one in front is the  Thunderbird House Post Totem Pole. These are used to support #FirstNation cedar house beams. This pole is a replica of a house post carved by Kwakwaka'wakw artist Charlie James in the early 1900s.

Totem poles are unique to the north west coast of #BritishColumbia and Lower Alaska. Each carving tells of a real of mythical event and every carving has a meaning. 

While in Vancouver, I tried to find out more about history and culture of the First Nation peoples'. More details on the blog.

#AD So glad to be able to venture out again. Vent #AD  So glad to be able to venture out again. Venturing out for a break from London, we went to explore some historic places not too far away. For a quick day trip as part of @Roadchef’s Great British Getaway, we ventured down to explore the old National Trust owned village of Chiddingstone in Kent. It's like a living museum. The whole street of Tudor buildings was bought to preserve them. You will find a well-stocked village shop that is like a throwback in time, including an old fashioned sweet shop display of pick and mix. Don't miss the tea shop in the back courtyard. 

You can visit Chiddingstone Castle and its 35 acres of beautiful grounds. (swipe for more pics) The house is worth a visit for its renowned art collection. 

On route, we stopped at Roadchef for some refreshments and were thrilled to find quite a few outlets open, including Chozen Noodles and Costa Coffee. We took our takeaway and had a socially distanced lunch al fresco in the garden outside. We would have picked @Leon but it was just being finished. To find more great roadtrip locations and explore more treasures that the UK has to offer, Roadchef has put together a handy guide, which is now available to view on its brand new website.

Escape to the country. It’s been a breathe of fr Escape to the country. It’s been a breathe of fresh air to be out of London. Visiting friends, doing outdoorsy things.

We’ve had cricket lunches, country walks, fresh air and wildlife. All with minimal human contact. 

Now to find more places to visit from London. Got any suggestions?

AD (Pic- sunbathing mushrooms) 🔆Fun Fact : Did AD (Pic- sunbathing mushrooms) 
🔆Fun Fact : Did you know that Mushrooms can act in a similar way to human skin and produce vitamin D when exposed to sunlight. 

Chestnut mushroom are the same as button mushrooms but grown for longer?? 🤯

To boost the vitamin D content of your regular mushrooms at home, simply buy your UK or Irish mushrooms and lay them in the sun between 10-3pm for around 15-120 minutes to get a real vitamin D boost. 

When fresh button mushrooms are exposed to the midday light the can manufacture more than 10 mcg vitamin D per 100g mushrooms which is a substantial portion of our daily recommended intake! 

Second pic is one of my grandma’s favourite #homecooking recipe, minced pork & mushrooms in dark soy.

AD It’s midsummer. It's time for some BBQ cookin AD It’s midsummer. It's time for some BBQ cooking over an open fire. Here is my recipe for the Weeping Tiger Beef using a piece of Dry-Aged @herefordbeefuk rump steak.  I love Thai flavours and the best way to eat a lovely piece of steak is to cook it simply, here it is cooked rare, the surface is charred to perfection. Then dress the steak salad with this spicy, tangy and umami-rich dressing (nam jim jaew). It takes just minutes to cook and assemble. A delicious and super quick mid-week meal and low carb too! 
Recipe below. See the blog post for more details and substitutions. 
Ingredients 
#HerefordBeef Dry Aged Steak ( Sirloin, Rump or Rib Eye) 
8 cherry tomatoes 
mixed salad leaves

Sitting in the buzzy dining room under the arches, we enjoyed a #roastbeef lunch with a spicy twist. Accompanying the beef was crispy roast potatoes, a rich beefy gravy, beets, spinach and a side of slow cooked beef. Preceding the main, we had chaat, crab and duck heart skewers. All quite unusual, balanced slicing, perfectly cooked. Pudding was a halwa ice cream with the shortest shortbread biscuit.
