“Our scone recipe is creamy, dreamy, and oh so flaky!”

“Shortbread is a traditional Scottish biscuit and it is a very simple and delicious cookie that is even better laced with fragrant lavender.”

“A variation on the picnic classic, pesto is a great addition to potato salad and a good way to use up extra herbs.”

This classic dessert sauce can be made with any type of citrus, and works beautifully as a filling for tarts, as a layer between cakes, or is delicious for a simple dessert with fresh berries!

“These flatbreads make for a really quick and easy lunch or dinner. You can make your own flatbreads, or use prepared naan bread for a quick shortcut.”

“This is a very famous Danish recipe that uses poached chicken. Afterwards you are left with a rich broth, which you could use to make the famous double dumpling soup. They are very comforting tartlets, and a great spring dinner when asparagus is in season.”

“Rhubarb is a fantastic spring vegetable (not a fruit!) that adds a splash of sweet and sour flavour to your cooking. Add in a pinch of spicy ginger and some sweet local honey for a perfectly balanced preserve that is great over iced cream or scones!”

“This simple jam recipe is made without pectin, and it is easy to substitute fresh berries. The key is to cook the jam long enough so that it gels, and reduce the sugar.”

This classic pasta favourite is easier than you think to make at home, and is very easy to transform into something beautiful. Once you have mastered the basics, try elevating it by grilling your chicken, or making pasta dough from scratch.

Melon and mint go perfectly well together, making this salad delightfully sweet and fresh!
