I realise I haven’t been very consistent lately with posting new recipes. I recently started a new job which is going great but means I’m quite busy at the moment. It also means that I am in front of a computer screen all day so, while I am cooking and experimenting a lot, I’m not […]
One of the first food blogs I ever followed was Like Mam Used to Bake by Rosanne Hewitt Cromwell. Sadly, this blog is no more but one of my favourite ever recipes was for her Soy Garlic Chicken which I think was inspired by a Crackbird dish. This recipe was where I learned about spatchcocking […]
