| This salad of smoked quinoa, carlin peas and tomatoes comes to us from the Age Well Project. The smoky flavours from the quinoa are complimented by smoked paprika, cumin and the sweet acidity of roasted tomatoes. |
Grown by Peter Fairs in the fields of Essex, nutty and light wholegrain quinoa is traditionally smoked over oak and beech by Rob Morton in his Norfolk smokehouse to produced our smoked quinoa. It's easy to cook and perfect for salads, as a side dish, in soups or as an alternative to rice or cous cous.
The Age Well Project is an excellent blog (and books too) about the science of longevity, distilling published research to make it accessible in our everyday lives. The project highlights the important role of whole grains and pulses in a nutritious diet and the website features many excellent recipes that can be used with our pulses and grains.

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.
