    Cauliflower quiche. Actually, I set out to make mushroom and spinach quiche but when I opened the bag of spinach it smelt awful! I didn't fancy just mushrooms so I went all inventive :D.

    If anyone's interested, I lightly steamed the cauli first, grated some cheese onto the pastry base, covered with the cauli, scattered a bit more cheese over the top then poured over the egg mixture which was made up of duck eggs (on special in Tesco last week), a tub of on-date ricotta, the dregs of a pot of cream and not quite enough salt :rotfl:. I whipped up a bit of a savoury crumble (flour, butter, seasoning and yet more cheese) and this went on the top after the quiche had been cooking for 10 minutes or so.

    It was good but if I make it again, I'll definitely up the seasoning and perhaps try adding a bit of mustard powder.

    I fancy having a go at one of Gordon Ramsay's vegetarian recipes 'Risotto of ceps with spring onions, grated truffle and parmesan.

    Realistically the truffle will have to fall by the wayside, I haven't won the lottery :). and they are really only used as a garnish when serving.

    But I'm a bit confused about what Ramsay means by ceps. I'm taking it that ceps means mushroom but I'm not to sure which type he means. The recipe calls for Sauteed Ceps
    250g fresh ceps, cleaned
    2 tbsp olive oil
    sea salt and black petter
    few knobs of butter

    What type of mushroom do you think I should use.

    Thanks for your input.

  • Ceps = specialist mushroom probably dried. Best to google. Gordon Ramsey does not make this clear.
    Probably have to be soaked for 30 minutes.

    I bought one of those giant cupcake tins on Tuesday, so tried it out yesterday and it's gone down well. I've gone off cake (particularly chocolate cake) so I haven't tried it.

    I baked my best loaf to date in the BM following advice from here about adding extra water. It's come out all soft and lovely :)

    Adding milk powder helps to soften loaves as well - though obviously it adds to the cost.

    Which reminds me.... must get a loaf started!
