Far too scrummy, and I'm most jealous of the cake stands and pretty baskets!

We've just come back from a week in Pembrokeshire, West Wales and can highly recommend The Canteen in Newport - http://thecanteen.org/index.php?page=About - a perfect menu from boiled egg with marmite soldiers, beer battered fish and chips, a great veggie mushroom pasta and the most moreish straw fried on record. The ...flourless chocolate cake and sticky toffee pudding were pretty good too. Definately worth the detour if you are in the area.Read More

Richard Branson, George Soros and Alan Sugar are locked in a small, windowless room with only an abacus, pencil, paper, crystal ball and some twiglets for a month and charged with the responsibility of thinking up a half decent pitch for a new, self-sustaining business.

Led Mirage Hi, I'd both your books and had been baking bread every week. I'd tried to make brioche, but I just can't seem to be able to work all that butter into the dough without it melting. Obviously, it would be a lot easier if I use the machine to incorporate the butter, but I really want to do this by hand. Thank you very much.

hi leslie
making the brioche is a brave move so well done
the key to mix the butter in is 1st that the dough is well mix and does come clean from the bench then that your butter is about the same consistancy as the dough and then mix it in without squashing it too much and start working the dough again it will come clean and become beautifully silky and light dont give up!!! if you are using a mixer it is the same principle but the dough will feel much warmer .
hope this help let me know how you are getting on!
happy baking ... Read More

Richard Bertinet And heres what happened when the class got under way....rillettes, faggots, sausages, brawn, hams and loads more. Not one for the veggies!! Today is our Pig class with Charlie Digney chef and owner of The King William, Garricks Head and Oakhill at Radstock. Looks like its going to be a great class.

Brian Hi Richard, would love to try to recreate those fantastic prunes I sampled at the recent class. What else apart from prunes and dark rum went into the jar? Best of luck with the other courses.

Hello, the books are great and the pictures beautiful. As a french lady leiving in Ireland, I would love to be able to make good bread at home. I have only tried the baguette, epi and fougasse from "Dough". I have been baking every day and am quite happy with the results, but I have one major problem: I can never manag...e to have the crust stay crunchy. It's lovely and crunchy when the bread comes out of the oven but quickly becomes soft and chewy. I have been baking the baguettes for 10-12 minutes as advised in the book. What can I do?Read More
