Last night’s rainbow trout ceviche from @bristolfoodunion’s sustainable fish masterclass with @elliottlidstone of @boxebristol. Pretty as a picture (basically @jennychandleruk’s handiwork) and utterly delicious too. We also filleted a plaice and sardines which tbh was a bit more of a challenge and made me resolve more than ever to use a fishmonger of which we’re fortunate to have several in Bristol. (My fish came from @thespinylobster and had come in that afternoon) There’s just no comparison with supermarket fish. Hugely fun evening which felt - hurrah - like NORMAL LIFE 🙌🏻 . . . #fish #sustainable #trout #ceviche #raw #masterclass #bristol #bristolfoodunion #boxEDidn’t get round to eating this stupendous @meatpeter Glenarm shorthorn sirloin steak yesterday so there was nothing else for it but abandoning meat-free - and alcohol-free - Monday. Cos it would be rude to eat a steak as good as this without a glass of red wine, wouldn’t it? (A 2010 @planetawinery Maroccoli syrah, since you ask) Did manage to resist making chips though 😇#meatspreemonday . . . #beef #glenarmshorthornbeef #shorthornporn #steak #sirloinsteak #meat #meatpeter #giftedI’ve got a bit obsessed with cheese straws during lockdown as they’re super-easy to rustle up if you’ve got some cheddar knocking around in the fridge so to ring the changes yesterday I stamped them out into little biscuits which seems to make them even lighter and crunchier. I reckon they could do with a bit of adornment by way of an egg wash glaze or a scattering of sesame seeds or grated parmesan but they’re pretty good as is. The recipe (which I’ll post on the website once I’ve decided the topping) makes 24-26 biscuits which sounds a decent amount but be warned. They Don’t Last Very Long! . . . #cheese #cheddar #cheesebiscuits #homebaked #homemade #instafood #foodstagramPicnic of dreams from @wilsonsbristol on a perfect summer afternoon @belmont_estate_bristol. The man himself nursing a suspected broken ankle from leaping rather too energetically up the terraced seating 🙄, the HAMPER which included divine smoked trout rillettes, truffled potato salad and a decadent strawberry and crème patissiere dessert with marigold meringue. On a proper Picnic Rug! And the wild flowers and the views over the North Somerset countryside. More great events in store apparently - check out @belmont_estate_bristol to hear about them first. #guest . . . #picnic #picnichamper #alfresco #smokedtrout #truffles #potatosalad #strawberry #meringue #chef #janwilson #wilsonsbristol #belmontestate #bristol #somerset Follow on Instagram
