    Over the past few months, lots of people have asked whether we’d ever consider cooking meals for other people. Well… we’re thinking about it. Nothing fancy. Just good homemade food. The idea would be simple. Every Sunday we would publish the menu for the coming week and then cook and deliver fresh homemade meals on…

  • The First Ever Jam Jam Batch Cookathon

    Let’s be honest. Most of us like the idea of batch cooking.The reality is slightly different. It usually involves staring into the fridge at 6pm wondering why we didn’t cook anything earlier. So we’re going to fix that. Welcome to the very first Jam Jam Batch Cookathon. The idea is simple. On Sunday 7th June…

  • Silva’s Kafta Batata

    Hi all 😊 We’ve had another recipe from our star contributor Silva! Now… I didn’t actually have all the exact ingredients she used, so naturally I blagged it a bit and added a few twists of my own along the way. The result? “You HAVE to try this – it was absolutely delicious.” I’ve tagged…

  • Amand Addock

    (Ham & Haddock… apparently!) First of all… Paps came up with the title for this one!!! A few days ago, Paps bought a 2.5kg gammon from Lidl because it was on special offer. Now, 2.5kg of gammon for just the two of us was… optimistic. Unsurprisingly, we had quite a bit left over. We worked…

  • Mother’s Day Leftovers

    As usual, the family decided they’d all like to get together for Mother’s Day… and that I should cook! But this year I had some help from the lovely Caroline (mum of my daughter’s boyfriend). She turned up with a whole spread – salmon & cream cheese twirls, crudités & hummus, and some absolutely delicious…

  • Would You Be Interested in Locally Sourced Venison?

    Hi everyone – Paps here. I wanted to put something out there and see if there’s any interest. I’m looking to start offering locally sourced venison, prepared from deer that have been responsibly managed and butchered locally. The idea is to sell this as either a half animal or whole animal, so you get a…

  • Meat Thermometers

    Hi everybody – Paps here. We’ve mentioned this before, but I really think it’s worth saying again… Meat thermometers – you MUST have one of these in your life. Let me explain.

Not exactly a…
