THINGS WE LOVE



Saturday sausage lunch with a difference.  Rosemary jelly by éxtra which arrived in the post this morning, and whilst in our eagerness to taste it we plumped for the quick route, this would make an excellent accompaniment to roast lamb.  A beautiful translucent jelly with an reassuringly authentic smell of fresh rosemary squeezed in your hand.






Also in the parcel was a large jar of Confit De tomate vert to which we are now addicted - yes even in such a short space of time.  This may have something to do with the colour, as it is a satisfying green, but could also have something to do with being a family of sweet toothed gourmet.  Eaten on its own by the spoonful it tastes similar to gooseberry jam, but the best paring we have found so far is salty cheese and focaccia, although of course it could also be good with the gamey flavour of the traditional Italian christmas capone.
