February’s Bishops’ Kitchen offers you two recipes for a romantic Valentine’s Night
DINNER DATE STEAK
2x15ml tbsp dark muscovado sugar, 2x15ml tbsp red wine vinegar, 1x15ml tbsp Dijon mustard, 1x15ml tbsp soy sauce, 1x15ml tbsp redcurrant jelly, 2tsp chopped fresh ginger, 1x15ml tbsp tomato puree, 1x15ml tbsp garlic oil, 2 sirloin steaks 300g each
Method:
Put the sugar, vinegar, mustard, soy sauce, redcurrant jelly, ginger & tomato puree into a small pan & whisk together over a gentle heat. Bring to boil & simmer for about 5 mins until the sauce has thickened slightly, remove from heat. Rub the steaks with garlic oil before placing on a very hot griddle & cook for 3 mins on each side for rare to medium. Take steaks off & wrap in tin foil & leave to rest for 5 mins. Open foil & pour juices into sauce whisk. Place steaks on warm plates & drizzle sauce over steaks & serve.
LEMON MERINGUE FOOL
150ml shop bought lemon curd, 2tsp limoncello, 250ml double cream, lemon zest to serve, 1 meringue nest (shop bought is ok).
Method:
Put lemon curd & limoncello in bowl & stir together. Put cream into another bowl & whisk until just thick. Fold in half lemon curd mixture into the cream with a rubber spatula then the rest. You want this all folded in completely (whipped cream rippled with lemon is what you are aiming for). Crumble the meringue nest into cream with your fingers & gently fold in. Spoon mixture into a bowl or two goblet glasses & decorate with the lemon zest serve with fine biscuits such as langues de chat [cat’s tongue biscuits].

We see many advertisements and charities promoting looking after your heart and how to prevent heart disease and research tells us that the most important thing you can do is be kind to your heart, especially in your 40s and 50s. What’s good for your heart is also good for your brain!
Looking after your heart health, including controlling blood pressure and being physically active, can help lower your risk of heart disease and dementia too – particularly Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia.
According to a report published by leading medical journal The Lancet in 2020, social isolation in later life could be a factor in around 4% of cases of dementia. We know that being socially active, whether that’s picking up the phone, meeting friends for a coffee, joining community groups, volunteering, or jumping onto Zoom for a catch-up can help us feel happier, healthier and more positive in general. Please reach out, particularly to those on their own.
Take their Brain Health quiz HERE.If you have general questions about dementia or want to know more about dementia research and how you and your loved ones can get involved, Dementia Research Infoline can help.
Alzheimer’s Research UK is a registered charity, numbers 1077089 and SC042474.

At Hursey Common this morning, 30 saplings were planted.
A massive thank you & well done to David Leader with the group of volunteers: Stefan, Kirsty, Eden, Linda, pictured above with Peter and Hazel, pictured below.
The fungus shown in this photograph is the Scarlet Elf Cup (Sarcoscypha coccinea) – though not poisonous, it is considered inedible. It can be spotted in several places throughout the common at this time.
We are so lucky to have this woodland on our doorstep – please help look after it and take any litter home.
