Blackberry Crumble

Hey,


Welcome/Welcome back.


Without a recording space to do a new video I have put together a recipe and photo montage for Blackberry and Rhubarb Crumble (still got the summer feeling despite the rain here in Cheshire!).


Crumble is a classic pud, and a personal favourite of mine - as the sweetness is tempered by the sourness of the fruit. And its good with basically all of the dairy sides; Custard, clotted cream, double cream, and ice cream!


And you can use so many different fruits and fruit combinations - its ridiculously flexible!


Hope you enjoy (recipe below the video).

Take Care

How to Peel an Avocado

Hey 😊,

I put together a short video on how to peel an avocado.

This only came about because I was having lunch at my sisters and I saw her peeling an avocado using a paring knife small piece by piece.

Obviously I waited until she finished before I offered to show her an easier (and cleaner!!) method - we are siblings after all 😇.

Please see below for what I think is the easiest way to peel an avocado.

Moving and Mess

Hey,

So I (we) have moved house - and have mostly unpacked - unfortunately some of my Chef toys have had to stay in a box as there is no space for them in the new kitchen :(

We have a real project on our hands with the new house - and we are really looking forward to getting stuck into it. In the short term we are just stripping out the old dusty carpets (and have been really lucky to find Oak floors underneath!) and slapping some white paint on the walls.

Long-term...we have to many ideas to have a plan as of yet - but we are excited about the possibilities...even if we are short on funds!

As for the videos there has been a little delay on shooting anything new as I have nowhere to set up the cameras in the new Kitchen (bloody pain!).

So I have put together a Montage (montaaage) which will be released tomorrow. And I had thrown together a quick video on how to peel an Avocado just before the move - which I will add on the next blog.

Take care,
Rob
