The Broad Palate – Dec ’23

“Two of our family favourites – also great for dinner guests. Wishing you health and happiness for the festive season. 🎄 x” – Ann Shaw

Salmon in Filo (serves 4)

Great with new potatoes and green beans or tender stem broccoli. Serve with tartare sauce (or a bowl of shop-bought sour cream and chive dip!). For a vegetarian version, use mounds of cooled, roasted vegetables (without too much moisture) instead of the fish.

  • 4 sheets filo pastry
  • 125g/4.5 oz butter, melted
  • 4 skinless, boneless salmon fillets
  • 250g/8 oz plain/garlic & herb cream cheese
  • 4 handfuls watercress, coarsely chopped + 4 sprigs to garnish
  • Sesame seeds (optional)
  • Salt and pepper

Method:

Heat oven to 190°C/170°C fan/Gas 5.
Lay a sheet of filo on your board, brush with butter and fold so that the two short sides meet. Brush with butter.
On a short side, place a salmon fillet around 1.5 ins from the edge and season. Add a quarter of the cream cheese along the top of the fillet, then watercress to taste.
Roll up carefully, buttering and folding in the sides as you go, making a parcel. Repeat with the other 3 fillets. Place on a buttered baking tray, ensuring that the salmon is on the bottom. Brush parcels with butter, sprinkle with sesame seeds if using, and bake for around 30 minutes or until golden brown.
Garnish with saved watercress.

Easy Chocolate Mousse (makes 6)

My version of a cracking Delia recipe from the 1960s. Use 200g dark chocolate if you prefer. I add coffee powder to bring out the taste of the chocolate – it won’t add any coffee flavour.
Ring the changes by adding the zest of a large orange, or a crushed-up chocolate honeycomb bar, or a couple of tablespoons of your favourite liqueur. Can be made a day ahead.

  • 100g/3.5 oz dark chocolate (min 75% solids)
  • 100g/3.5 oz good quality milk chocolate
  • 3 large eggs, separated
  • 120ml/4fl. oz warm water with 1 heaped tsp instant espresso /coffee powder*
  • 40g/1.5 oz caster sugar
  • (*if using liqueur, use 30ml, and reduce coffee + water to 90ml)
  • Raspberries and double cream to serve (optional)

Method:

Place chocolate and coffee water (+ liqueur if using) in a heatproof bowl, melt gently over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir occasionally until the chocolate has melted.
Allow to cool until tepid then add egg yolks and quickly stir until smooth and shiny.
Whisk egg whites to soft peaks with a pinch of salt to stabilise, then gradually add the sugar and whisk until glossy.
Using a large metal spoon, mix a dollop of egg white into the chocolate mixture to loosen it up, then add the rest of the egg white, gently folding and cutting, until there are no more visible clumps of egg white.
Spoon into ramekins or dessert glasses and refrigerate for 5-6 hours.
Serve with cream and raspberries if liked.

Many thanks to Ann 🙂

Bon Appetit!

No FareShare Larder On Friday, 1st September

The FareShare Larder WILL be at Drimpton Village Hall this week, on Friday, 25th August from 9.30am.

It will NOT be there next Friday, 1st September.

The reason for this and the difficulties Fareshare are currently experiencing was given by the Help and Kindness Food Larder who coordinate the project…

“… – the need for more drivers is being worked on and both Help and Kindness/NDPAG are currently working with FareShare to spread the net wider in looking for additional volunteer drivers and reviewing and offering solutions to the approach taken to deliver to each larder.  Temporarily, FareShare have also employed a driver this week to help fill the gap. 

However, FareShare have advised this morning that next week from Monday to Friday inclusive (Monday 28th – Friday 1st September) there will be no larders….
We have been assured that a full normal service will resume from Saturday 2nd September.”

Thank you for your understanding. If you haven’t taken advantage of this membership scheme, there are still some places remaining to become a member – Click HERE.

FareShare Moves To Drimpton This Friday

Broadwindsor’s FareShare Larder will be at Drimpton this Friday and for the foreseeable future at the same times of 9.30 – 10.30am.

The initiative is led by the NHS & Dorset Council, led locally by Councillor Yvonne White & Vice-Chair Jacqui Sewell who were informed by email that the Comrades Hall Management Committee, with Megan Jones new at the Chair, were ‘very supportive’ but want to charge the group £12/session should the Hall be needed in wet weather.

Comments from local residents are saddened, disgusted and outraged.

There is already a list compiled of volunteers who will transfer the food to those in Broadwindsor who genuinely have no transport and are unable to get to Drimpton.

Anyone who lives in the parish area is eligible to become a member of this group. There is a maximum of  50 members. Find out more HERE (Note: the location is now Drimpton Village Hall).

This is a weekly membership scheme* aimed at helping people make their money go further by reducing food shopping bills – so unless a recognised referral agent refers you to the scheme,  you must register to become a member.  Application forms need to be requested by emailing: FSSouthernCentral@fareshare.org.uk.  Once completed, proof of address/ID needs to be provided and you email the completed form to the same email address.  Alternatively, it is a quick and easy process to complete and submit the form online – Click HERE.

Celebrate The White Lion’s First Birthday…

…as a Community Pub.

Already, a year has passed since The White Lion re-opened with much celebration…

This Saturday there will be no dinner service but, from 7pm, a finger buffet will be provided by Kerry & Clive who have been excelling all expectations since starting at Easter 🙂

A press release issued yesterday has Chairman Rick Dyke commenting “It’s certainly been an eventful twelve months.“. Thanking the Staff family and the many volunteers, Rick went on to say “We’re delighted that Kerry and Clive have joined us, and we’re excited about the next stage of the White Lion’s progress into a pub that is widely renowned for the quality of its food.”

Ending on a cautionary note, Rick continued “As with the hospitality trade generally, we have seen electricity costs skyrocket over the past year.  To make matters worse, the electricity companies view the trade as a bad risk with many reluctant to even quote, whereas those who do quote clearly see it as an opportunity to charge what they like.
Despite this, support from central government is negligible. Somehow, these spiralling costs need to be met and ultimately, this has to be by the paying customer.  This is where the warm welcome becomes even more vital because without it and the atmosphere it helps generate, what future does the British pub have?”

On King Charles III Coronation weekend, please book now to avoid any disappointment…

 

Please continue to support our lovely pub:)
