About
| Sarah and Aitana make this rye loaf every week. It’s wonderfully simple but utterly delicious with both sweet and savoury meal. They like it best toasted, spread thickly with home-made jam and salted butter or with scrambled eggs. But it goes well with just about anything. |
The high sourdough starter content means this loaf stays moist for ages - if you can resist eating it. The nuttiness of the hemp and linseeds combines beautifully with the earthiness of the camelina and rye but feel free to add whichever seeds you fancy. And once you get the hang of it, you can experiment by adding delights such as sprouted grains or dried fruit and nuts.
For more brilliant recipes from Sarah and Aitana, check out their cookbook A La Mesa which celebrates seasonal British produce and encourages us all to reconnect with how, where and by whom the food we eat is grown and to feel empowered cooking it.

These traditional potato cakes are named “farls” from the Gaelic word fardel, meaning quarter. A central part of an Ulster fry, farls are popular across Northern Ireland. Making them at home is simple and requires minimal ingredients: some left-over mashed potatoes, a pinch of salt and just enough flour to bind.
This simple and naturally sweet recipe is a delicious and nourishing alternative to traditional grain-based granola. Packed with crunch from brazil nuts, seeds, and flaked almonds, it’s full of healthy fats, fibre and plant protein - perfect for a sustaining breakfast or snack. The chia fruit compote adds a bright, jammy contrast, thickened naturally with chia seeds for extra texture and nutrition.
Orfhlaith Noone's addition of Guinness to Irish soda bread give it a modern twist, lending a deep, malty flavour to the loaf. This bread is the perfect accompaniment to hearty Irish dishes like seafood chowders, beef stews, soups, or simply with a smear of salted butter - Irish only, please!
