About
| This twist on traditional crêpes is made with yellow pea and fava bean flour, making it a great source of plant-based protein and gluten-free too. Created by the talented nutritionist, cook, grower and food presenter Sam Hamrebtan. |
Sam launched her food and nutrition business, The Loess Life, in the knowledge that not everyone is a natural cook with hours to kill in the kitchen. Instead, her approach is fiercely simplistic, focused on helping individuals create tasty, effortless food that is also good for you and the world. The wonderful recipes Sam has written for us reflect these values wonderfully.
Sam explains some of the nutritional benefits of her recipe:
"Coriander seeds are rich in antioxidants and have been traditionally used for their digestive properties, whilst mustard seeds contain essential minerals like magnesium and selenium.
"By incorporating chives or wet garlic into the recipe, we add a burst of freshness along with a range of nutrients. Chives are a good source of vitamins A and K, while wet garlic offers immune-boosting properties."

Crisp at the edges, tender in the middle, and full of nutty depth, fava bean farinata makes a beautiful centrepiece for a light meal. Paired with smoky, charred spring onions and a refreshing herb and cucumber salad, it's both fresh and comforting.
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.
