Our bread is made with five simple ingredients... Flour, water, sourdough or yeast, salt and time which we call the fifth ingredient. Time is added through slow fermentation. An unhurried fermentation not only pre-digests the wheat but allows complex flavours to develop. There is much virtue in patience! The 6th, 7th and 8th ingredients that we don t add are ascorbic acid which allows dough to prove faster, malt which gives a dark blistering crust and extra gluten which gives the loaf more volume and can make it soft. Our point of difference is that we encourage natural, slow fermentation for better flavour and digestibility. Bread Stollen $25 The origins of this breadlike German festive fruit cake date back 600 years. Made with our house-made marzipan it is said to be in the form of a swaddled baby Jesus. Serve for breakfast, with coffee or after dinner.

Mix it with mayo and sour cream and toss through left over turkey for crostini or for filling baguettes.

Cranberry, Pecan & Rosemary Stuffing $13.50 Take the fuss out of stuffing and use this fragrant stuffing mix for turkey, chicken, goose or lamb. Two packets are required for a large whole turkey. Vary the flavours by replacing water with another warmed liquid; wine, orange juice, apple juice, sherry or stock can be used to make this stuffing.

Mix remaining ingredients together and press firmly into the cups. Bake 180c/160 fan for 20 minutes until golden. (If you don t have patty pans, you can roll them into logs) Peach Melba Trifle This trifle does not necessarily need alcohol because the raspberries are so intense.

Mix yolks and sugar and pour the strained warm cream over and whisk over medium heat until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Do not allow it to boil or curdle. Remove from heat and cool. Reserve 200g whole raspberries and puree the remainder with 5 tablespoons sugar and juice of ½ lemon. Stir ½ cup peach juice through the sponge with eau de vie. Spread the sponge pieces over the base of the glasses or large bowl. Then layer the peaches and half of the whole raspberries. Pour over most of the raspberry puree, sprinkle on ½ the crumbled macaroons and finally the custard. Decorate with some whole raspberries, a little puree and the remaining macaroon crumbs.
