Cook: Pir Gam. That is, Pear Jam. Failsafe

Cook: Pir Gam. That is, Pear Jam. Failsafe

February 3, 2014 · by Karen R · in : Cook, Sweet Dishes

Jam is an essential part of the English food tradition. Without it, what can we possibly put on our toast, wiggs or gluten free muffins and scones? Good Things In England has a few things to say about Pears. While…

Cook: Sweetpea Pie. Gluten Free. Pretty. Green. Pie. 1744

January 20, 2014 · by Karen R · in : Cook, Gluten Free, Luncheon, Dinners and Dishy Suppers, Sweet Dishes, Vegetables

This week’s recipe uses green peas. I came up with this unusual, mind-bending, gluten and dairy free dish in a roundabout way. Definitely thanks to Florence White, but not directly from her book. In researching her source for many vegetable…

Florence White’s recipe for frying celery is taken from a Kitchen Garden book from 1744, called Adam’s Luxury and Eve’s Cookery. I found the book at the British Library and was eager to see why Florence had picked this recipe…

who only England knows.” Charles Esme Francatelli was an Englishman born and bred, and prided himself on that fact, but he had inherited a gift for cooking from his Italian forebears and also had the advantage of being a pupil…

Cook: Pineapple and Almond Fruit Cake; Gluten Free, from 1904

December 18, 2013 · by Karen R · in : Cook, Country and Schoolroom Teas, Gluten Free, Sweet Dishes

I love how Christmas Fruit Cakes look. Tall, dense, moist and richly coloured. I was strangely disappointed as a girl when a wedding cake turned out to be fruit cake underneath all its delicate, white frosting. Things have changed for…

Cook: 11.12.13 Plum Pudding Without Eggs from 1852; Gluten Free!

Cook: 11.12.13 Plum Pudding Without Eggs from 1852; Gluten Free!

December 11, 2013 · by Karen R · in : Cook, Gluten Free, Sweet Dishes

I wonder if Mrs Frome was making her Christmas pudding this late in the day! 11th December! This had better be my last Christmas Pudding for the year…unless I’m planning to save it for 25.12.14. That date doesn’t quite have…

Cook: To Fry Sprats. Omega 3 breakfast richness.

December 3, 2013 · by Karen R · in : Cook, English Breakfasts, Fish, Luncheon, Dinners and Dishy Suppers, Revitalise, Savouries, Specialities

These omega 3 rich, fatty fish are, according to a dear Mrs. Loftus from Southwold, a delicious and naturally nutritious breakfast. Start your day with a boost for your brain, with oils from real, sustainably caught fish, rather than a…

Cook: To Roast Goose in the English Fashion

November 27, 2013 · by Karen R · in : Cook, Gluten Free, Luncheon, Dinners and Dishy Suppers, Revitalise, Specialities

The Roast Meat of Old England I was tempted to cook Moor Fowl, Jugged Pigeon, Ortolan or Roast Cygnet with you. But of course, and probably for the best, I’m not able to source any of these birds. The Cygnet…

Cook: Roast Duck with Gluten-Free Stuffing for a smaller Christmas setting

Cook: Roast Duck with Gluten-Free Stuffing for a smaller Christmas setting

November 26, 2013 · by Karen R · in : Cook, Luncheon, Dinners and Dishy Suppers, Specialities

A duck serves fewer people than a chicken and certainly less than a turkey! Unlike a chook, it has the novelty value that a turkey does – making it a perfect festive option for a small family, a Christmas ‘en…

November 25, 2013 · by Karen R · in : Cook, Bread, Huffkins, Wiggs, Oatcakes, Gluten Free, Uncategorized

Miss Veronica Cook provided this recipe in 1931. ‘Home-made and made with Yeast’ Florence White is full of wonderful tips for baking breads – both different yeasted breads and soda breads. She tells us that many of the old recipes…

Heritage Cookery Refreshed

Dishy Things In England recreates traditional English Cookery with modern, whole food ingredients - as good as the raw materials would have been back then, before processing and packaging compromised our food chain.

The recipes I'm reinventing; gluten free; cow's dairy-free; sulfites free, are all from early 20thC "receipts book" GOOD THINGS IN ENGLAND.

I love to be aimless in adventure, as I am now, an Australian perched in Hoxton, London, but I am rudderless without a kitchen.

It is the centre of our family, from where so many joyful ambles begin.
