What are you preserving?

[Chris]

This week it's been preserving our own smoked paprika. Honestly the smell is incredible!

Oooooh. I had never even considered that I could make my own smoked paprika. I use loads of the stuff - especially in curries, where it adds a wonderful smokey depth.

Thanks!

Honestly it's one of the easier spices to grow, do give it a go!

Made Sea Buckthorn fruit leather this week. My first time making fruit leather, but won’t be my last. It’s so easy and tastes great.

Made a little apple purée to add to the blended berries and a little honey to sweeten, but it still came out lovely and tart.
