| 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.

Try this seasonal British classic using our organic four-grain muesli base, wholemeal flour and poppy seeds for extra plant diversity. And feel free to switch the fruit for whatever's in seasonal abundance.
This satisfying subji - a dish of vegetables - features soft, spiced carrot koftas baked to perfection and served in a rich, earthy “nomato” sauce made with beetroot, squash and courgette. Made with fava bean flour and wholemeal wheat flour, the koftas are high in protein and fibre, with warming spices like cumin, turmeric, and sumac for depth and zing.
These cold-proved wholemeal sourdough rolls with nuts or seeds are inspired by the rustic rolls typical of Scandinavian artisanal bakeries. But despite this, they're very easy to make.
