Very sad to hear of Skye Gyngell’s passing today. Her cooking has inspired me for years and her books remain a trusted reference. Her seasonal approach and distinctive style made her extraordinary. She will be missed. #SkyeGyngell

Briefly stopped by the allotment this morning and spotted a twin spider web strung with raindrops across the gate railings. At 8°C the chill made each bead stand out, a small reminder of how sharp the morning can be this time of year. #allotment 🕸️🕷️ྀི
Two spider webs on separate allotment kitchen garden gate railings, each holding fine raindrops. Behind them sits a wheelbarrow beside a large heap of wood chips.

Just bottled a batch of Meeta's spicy ketchup, after her prompt to put my San Marzanos to good use. Paired it with duck fat fries for a crisp, golden match. Warm heat, not a burn. Pleased with how the shot turned out too; the sauce glows like late summer. #KitchenGarden 🍜🍽️ 🌶️
A dark tabletop scene with a bottle of homemade kitchen garden ketchup, with a handwritten label that says "Meeta's Spicy Tomato Ketchup". Next to it, a metal basket holds duck fat fries in a paper cone. A rustic plate with red chillies sits behind, and in the foreground, a small glass dish holds some of the sauce, homemade on the allotment and ready to be devoured.

Tried a new sourdough recipe with my favourite regenerative flour. One angled score gave a bold ear and a rustic rise. Sliced it later and the loaf had a surprise in store. #Sourdough
A freshly baked sourdough loaf sits on a worn wooden counter. The crust is deep golden with a strong ear from a single angled score. A light dusting of flour remains on the surface. Made with a regenerative flour blend developed for depth and slow fermentation. The scene feels quiet, simple, and rustic.

A year ago this soil was spent. I've worked in compost made from seaweed, chicken and cow manure, oak leaves and bracken. Now it’s rich, organic and full of life. It’s taken time, but it’s ready. Looking forward to planting into it next spring. #homestead 🚜🌾👨‍🌾🌿
My hands cupping a generous handful of dark, crumbly soil, rich with organic compost. The soil is a deep brown textured with fragments of decomposed leaves and plant matter. It rests in the palms and fingers, slightly damp, showing structure and life. The background hints at an outdoor kitchen garden allotment, slightly out of focus - raised beds, autumn light, and the suggestion of recent digging. The image captures the care and transformation of the earth through composting and cultivation.

Pasta always goes with wine, surely? Not necessarily. #matchoftheweek www.matchingfoodandwine.com/news/match_o...
Mushroom pasta and sake
You might think when it comes to food and wine pairing that wine is the perfect drink with pasta but this pairing proves that sake can do the job too.

Germany’s rediscovering mushroom foraging 🍄‍🟫🍄. Something we already do when the season turns. It’s not a trend, just a way of paying attention to the forest again. #foraging #vegansky

This is what one of the biggest Diwali celebrations outside of India looks like.

Thank you to everyone who came to celebrate light overcoming darkness, hope overcoming hardship, and unity in our diversity.

Spent the weekend building a new fence and gate for the kitchen garden allotment - bit of help from friends, an old goat pen gate and salvaged wood. Soaked to the skin by the end, but a rainbow turned up as if to say - well done. Quite pleased with it. #KitchenGarden 👩‍🍳🍃 ‧₊˚🌈
Newly built wooden fence and gate enclosing a kitchen garden allotment, made from salvaged wood and a repurposed goat pen gate. The ground is wet from recent rain, with a faint rainbow arcing across the sky behind.

The European Parliament wants to stop plant-based foods from using words like “burger” or “steak.” Farmers call it protection, critics call it pointless. The proposal still needs full EU approval before it can become law. #PlantBased #VeganSky #EU
‘Veggie burgers’ could be off EU menu as MEPs back renaming plant-based foods
Proponents say move would strengthen position of farmers in supply chain but critics dismiss it as ‘hotdog populism’

Satisfying hour of pottering in the kitchen. A jar of kimchee starting its ferment. Spiced Quince & Pear Jelly from Mendips garden (John Lennon childhood home).
A large glass jar with green cabbage & rusty red spices & brine sits on a plate for “spillage”. Amber jelly in jars on a bread board.

I have been experimenting and practising with a new camera lens for an upcoming #Mediterranean food photography project and prepared one of my favourite mezes with bulgur, grilled halloumi, hummus, organic greens, and muhammara adapted from a Nina Olsson recipe.
