Spicy Fermented Sprouts

I didn’t think I liked sprouts… to be honest, I had only tried them once and didn’t have a positive or negative reaction to them.  My good friend Janice (of Nourished by Nature) said that at Christmas time, she made a spicy sprout ferment… I was inspired, so I gave it a go myself. I […]

Low Sugar Blackberry Jam

Happy Saturday I love jam, but so many shop-bought jams have SO MUCH SUGAR and often a whole load of other ingredients that personally… I don’t think jam needs…  As I like to keep it simple, less ingredients the better.   And, what’s even better, blackberries are abundant at the moment, which you can forage FOR […]
