This wonderfully fruity loaf from Jenni Sherington makes superb use of our Buckwheat and Yellow Pea Flours. |
When we first 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.
We were very excited to see what Jenni was doing, turning the idea of a healthy snack on its head and creating indulgent treats packed full of nutritious, wholesome ingredients. At the time we'd just had our first batch of 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 of our flour to experiment with.
We weren't disappointed. Jenni came up with some fantastic recipes - all with vegan options.
When Jenni sent over the recipe it came with some serving suggestions from the Sherington household - here's what Jenni says they like: "my dad - smothered with equal parts butter to loaf, my mum - with decadent salted caramel spread, mmm! Me - with a healthy berry chia jam for added nutrition!"
They all sound great to us!

Hi Jane
Like flax, chia seeds form a gloopy “mucilage” when they’re ground and mixed with water, that firms up when heated and so acts as a good vegan egg replacement. You can read more about it at http://www.veganbaking.net/recipes/egg-replacers/chia-seed-binder
Enjoy the loaf – it’s a great recipe.
Best wishes, Nick

Hello, can you tell me more about Chai seeds? What is it that makes them behave like eggs?
Jane.

Eden's latest recipe is inspired by the Catalan method of adding dry or fried bread to dishes to thicken sauces and make them more luxurious. Paired with the briny and acid dressing, this is a great way to eat beans, not at all heavy but both savoury and bright. Best served with salad and bread – double bread! – why not?

Sikil Pak is a deliciously nutty and moorish traditional Mayan dip made from toasted or roasted pumpkin seeds and charred tomatoes. Serve alongside freshly fried totopos (tortilla chips) with a margarita if you fancy.
