| This comforting and sustaining winter recipe from Jenny Chandler makes great use of our Mix #3 - All The Peas, a five variety mix of Red Fox Carlin, Black Badger Carlin, Whole Blue, Whole Yellow and Marrowfat Peas. |
The mix of pea varieties gives a fabulous range of textures and flavours once cooked, with some of the softer marrowfat peas collapsing to give a rich, creamy stock.
While this recipe only uses 250g of dried peas, it makes absolute sense to cook the entire 500g bag of mixed peas, saving both energy and time (pressure cooking the peas will make further savings on both counts too). You can double up the soup recipe or freeze half your cooked peas to use at a later date.
There are a number of excellent sun-dried tomato pestos on the market, both vegan or containing cheese, but making your own is an absolute cinch and an opportunity to use up any random nuts in the cupboard.
Homemade sun-dried tomato pesto:
Using a liquidiser, or hand-held blender, blitz together 2 crushed cloves of garlic, 100 g sun-dried tomatoes (drained of their oil), 1 tbsp tomato purée, 50 g pine nuts (or walnuts/almonds/hazelnuts), about 12 basil leaves and a heaped tablespoon of either nutritional yeast or grated parmesan. Add enough extra virgin olive oil to make a thick paste. Taste, your tomatoes will probably provide enough salt to season the dish.

This beginner-friendly sourdough bread is a great sandwich bread, inspired by the Danish panini-style rye bread used at Joe & The Juice and the rågkusar rye sandwich thins popular in Sweden and Finland. Slice it horizontally and fill generously with your favourite sandwich filling.
Piyaz is a traditional Turkish bean salad, but in Antalya it takes on a unique and beloved twist. More than just a simple side, it becomes a hearty, flavourful dish in its own right, rich with tahini, olive oil and cumin, layered with herbs, eggs and tomatoes. Creamy flageolet beans form the base, while the tang of lemon and vinegar keeps it bright and refreshing. Finished with fragrant dill, parsley, and a sprinkle of sumac, this is a salad that’s as satisfying as it is vibrant, perfect served alongside grilled dishes or enjoyed simply with good bread.
An old-fashioned classic, upgraded for more plant diversity, more fibre, and, dare I say it, more flavour too! Instead of using just oats in crumble bars, try our four grain muesli base. You can make the crumble bars with either a caramelly date filling or a fresh, tart berry filling.
