Roasted Garlic & Broad Bean Soup / An Interview with Nigel Slater + Summer Squash With Lemon & Mint / Stir-fried Starch Jelly Noodles



Blog Post & Recipe: Roasted Garlic & Broad Bean Soup & a Facelift


This is a simple soup made of broad beans, stock, milk, lemon zest and roasted garlic, nothing more apart from the garnish of paprika and olive oil. If you don’t have broad beans you can also use haricot beans.

Blog Post & Recipe: Stir-fried Starch Jelly Noodles


Mung bean starch is a strange beast. I found it, at a whopping £3.99 at the Korean supermarket below Centrepoint, after reading Sunflower's post on making Sichuan liang fen (starch jelly) noodles. I had to have it; in her post, she says if you like rice noodles, you'll like these - I LOVE rice noodles.
