| 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 recipe from Anna Warden makes for a cookie that is crunchy on the outside, and chewy in the middle - to our mind the best combination. The malted wheat flour and coffee create a gorgeous depth of flavour and a moreish caramelly base which pairs perfectly with dark chocolate and sea salt. These cookies will keep in the freezer (unbaked) for a couple of weeks, and so are the perfect thing to have to hand for times you want a cookie or for when you might just need a cookie.

As the nights cool and the leaves turn, so wild mushrooms emerge from the mossy forest floor. Leanne Townsend found a beautiful patch of winter chanterelles and cooked them up with some British-grown carlin peas.
