A chapter on creative toppings offers endless inspiration for texture and flavour, followed by Sweet & Warming recipes from Cinnamon Apple Pie, Coconut & Mango to Stewed Rhubarb Crumble Porridge.
The Savoury & Cosy section reimagines porridge as a meal for any time of day, from Shakshuka Porridge with Tomatoes, Chilli and Eggs to Red Lentil Risotto with Peas, Asparagus and Lemon. Cold & Make Ahead brings porridge into summer with refreshing Bircher muesli, chia puddings and fruit-filled blends — proof that a good bowl of porridge isn’t just for winter.

Wonderful results and so easy with a soda bread recipe. Lovely colour,density and flavour.
I use 3 measures of Black Wheat and add to it 1 measure of Strong White Flour.
Sometimes I add mixed grain flour as well. Always a perfect product,
I am an impulsive cooker and have rarely soaked any pulses when I fancy them. The naked peas (essentially split peas) solve this problem. The pink ones stayed more whole than yellow split peas, a fact I love. The taste is similar to yellow peas with a hint of red lentil and a texture similar to chick peas. I haven't tried it for houmous yet, but it should work a treat.
Just started a mainly vegan diet and had not realised how many beans you can buy! No idea what to choose so just bought this bundle. Tried a couple of recipes so far from the site and really wonderful. Who knew beans were so versatile and tasty!
Interesting to see these cooking instructions. However, I would like to recommend YQ as a bread flour. After some five years of using various Hodmedod's wheats for my bread, this is one of the very best I have tried - I get loads of compliments from family and friends whenever I bake with this flour.
Just arrived - quickly - but really looking forward to trying them.
