This week's @rachelaliceroddy.bsky.social Apple, honey and poppyseed cake
As I had no poppyseeds mine was just apple & honey! I've never made a cake with honey instead of sugar so was a bit nervous. No need as it turned out perfectly. I'll be making this again.

They look fab.. did you try letting them sit a bit at room temp then dip in hot water to turn out - although no problem if not, taste same inverted or not xxx

Rachel Roddy’s recipe for pork ragu with herbs (for gnocchi or pasta) | A kitchen in Rome Marbled flesh and fat are key to this rich, succulent, dense ragu, boosted with powerful notes of bay, sage and rosemary

Still nearly an hour until lunch, so torturing myself reading recipes online. Definitely going to give this one from @rachelaliceroddy.bsky.social a go, maybe in half term when I've more time. Pork a bit more affordable than most meat, and plenty of Bay, sage and rosemary in the garden.

This week's @rachelaliceroddy.bsky.social Pork ragu with herbs (for gnocchi or pasta).
www.theguardian.com/food/2026/fe...
Delicious! Easy to make as it just bubbled away for a couple of hours with the occasional check & stir. Had ours with gnocchi.
"Bisto kids in middle-aged bodies" - aah... yes!

I have a proof of Anita "Spring" Council's cookbook, Southern Roots: Recipes and Stories from Mama Dip's Daughter, and it's absolutely wonderful. Visiting her mother's restaurant was one of the best experiences I've ever had; her daughter has done her proud.
