A Blag is simply cooking without fear. Sometimes it’s brilliant, sometimes it’s “interesting”, but it’s always yours.

Rules of the ‘Blag’

  1. There are no rules
  2. A recipe is a suggestion, not a contract
  3. Use what you’ve got before buying more
  4. Taste as you go (this is very important)
  5. If it works – write it down
  6. If it doesn’t – don’t tell anyone
  7. Wine is optional (but encouraged)

A Word About Freezers 💡

You don’t need a freezer to cook like this – but it really helps.

Freezers save money, reduce waste, and make life easier. Leftovers, batch cooking, reduced-price food, sauces, stock, bread – it all adds up. I’ll always tell you when something freezes well (and when it doesn’t).

Think of it as future-you doing present-you a favour.
