Was it only a week ago that the yumbloggers were sitting in 35ºC of Madrid heat on the terraza outside the Café Delic eating lunch and drinking chilled glasses of refreshing Mahou Classic? (Stop it, you’re beginning to sound like a middle class wanker – Ed) Ah yes, Blogger-D had a simple roll generously filled [...]

One Saturday we decided to get up and do the shopping before breakfast. Hard to imagine, but true. We went to the fish stall round the corner and witnessed it in it’s full bounteous glory. Indeed such was my excitement that I went crazy and bought shrimps for to make potted shrimps. Tis lucky that [...]

Escalivada

There are scurrilous allegations in today’s papers that Yumblog NEVER “signed†for Glasgow Rovers and NEVER played a first team game for them – despite saying so repeatedly on TV, radio and in print.

Salsify in Garlic Vinaigrette
May 14th, 2008 · No Comments
Poor old salsify. It seems to be either unknown, forgotten or unloved. Virtually unavailable in the shops, not a single search result for it on the usually flawless Waitrose cooking and recipe website, and salsify.com still available and up for grabs. All of which is a shame as it has to be one of the [...]

Lentil and Spinach Salad
April 12th, 2008 · No Comments
With my itinerant sister in Libya I thought I’d seek out something vaguely Libyan for the blog. I’d heard tell of unfathomably sweet tea, stodgy pudding things and meaty dinners, none of which appealed, so a short trip round the internet later I found this salad. It may be wholly unrepresentative of the diet of [...]
