January Recipes

Borscht
There’s something about the vibrant scarlet hue of borscht that feels rather cheering at this time of year. This is a classic Eastern European soup that in many ways mirrors the Italian minestrone – what you put in it and why can differ from season to season. We’ve opted for a simple winter vegetable version.

Marmalade

This hearty stew pairs beef shin with parsnips and ale. Serve with creamy mash on the side for a warming winter dinner.

Parsnip and apple soup

Parsnip curry

Grapefruit drizzle cake
Swap lemon for grapefruit to put a seasonal spin on this drizzle cake. The sugary crust gives a wonderful texture to the golden loaf.

Tarragon and vermouth mussels

Rhubarb and apple pie
