| Jenni Sherington created this amazingly healthy and nutritious desert for us after we met at the Aldeburgh Food and Drink Festival. It might not look like it but this pudding could count as one of your 5-a-day - better still, it's delicious! |
We met Jenni Sherington at the Aldeburgh Food and Drink Festival, she was offering samples of her healthy versions of popular confectionery - they really were delicious - and as it turns out Jenni's business, Sheringtons (sadly now closed), was based just down the road from us in Halesworth.
We were very excited to see what Jenni was doing, turning the idea of a healthy snack on it's head and creating indulgent treats packed full of nutritious, wholesome ingredients. At the time we'd just had our first batch of gluten free pea, bean and quinoa flours milled and were busy working out what could be done with them (lots as it turns out, they're incredibly versatile). We could see that Jenni was bound to have lots of good ideas so we gave her some samples to experiment with.
We weren't disappointed. Jenni came up with some fantastic recipes - all gluten free, with vegan options and some, like this tart, with no refined sugars.

A deeply comforting Persian-inspired aubergine stew made with naked fava beans instead of yellow split peas, and preserved lemon in place of black lime. Rich tomato, silky aubergine, warm spices, and sharp salty citrus combine to create a rustic, homestyle dish.
Vibrant and comforting Palestinian Rummaniyeh combines olive green lentils and charred aubergine with the deep tang of pomegranate molasses and the silkiness of tahini. A perfect vegan main served with flatbread.
A uniquely nutty and tender-crumbed vanilla cake featuring Hodmedod's wrinkled pea flour and toasted camelina seeds. Perfect for teatime or served with fruit and crème fraîche.
