It thrives where other plants fail and has been used traditionally in Asia, Africa, and South America to treat a myriad of different ailments for a long time. For those [...]
Let's talk about rissoto with leftover rice. Turmeric rice is always popular for this dish (I mean who doesn't adore that gorgeous yellow). You can just use plain rice or whatever you like of course (to be honest, I've used quinoa, millet, and barley for this - if you get the idea). I am like [...]
I am always up for a creamy rice pudding. Recently I was thinking of ways that I can use up the rather large 3-kilo bag of organic rice that I currently have in my pantry.

Here's a little magical treat that I've been making for years since I discovered how rewarding it was to make your own jar of sun-dried tomatoes. Infused with choice ingredients, this is rather delicious. This is my ginger version. It makes a frequent appearance when I am making food for people. I use it to [...]
Did you know that matcha can be an excellent calming, anti-anxiety drink? I found this out a couple of years ago when going through a rough patch (we’ll say a ‘rough patch’ shall we and leave it at that lol!). I was researching various anti-anxiety herbs and testing them out on myself (with rather positive [...]
