Autumn 2015 sees a new format and launch for the magazine as a bi-annual guide to the very best in food, culinary, beverage and dining out experiences across our productive and beautiful county. We have visited farmers, producers, cafes, pubs and restaurants to show you where your local food originates, how you can be assured of the quality in care and processing and ultimately how you can best enjoy this produce in your home, or at outstanding eating establishments in every corner of Lincolnshire. There is an extensive listing which, wherever you are in the county, will identify establishments within striking distance by foot or car. Our events section highlights forthcoming food fairs, Farmers’ Markets and family days out for you to enjoy in the coming months. As autumn begins and the festive season is not far away we hope that we have given you inspiration for mouthwatering treats, winter warming dishes, celebration feasts and a delicious Taste of Lincolnshire. Our guest chefs for this issue are champions of local sourcing and may already be well known to you for their culinary skills but they have also been ambassadors for Lincolnshire on TV and at many national food fairs. 15/09/2015 11:21 Rachel Green, born and bred in Lincolnshire, has built a highly successful career as a celebrity chef, star of the Lincolnshire Kitchen series and caterer.

George Adams was well known for his pies in Spalding and a few miles down the road in Boston, Dick Harlow was one of his rivals. Many years later their names are united. Their granddaughters Mary and Lizzi have joined forces to create Adams and Harlow, a company which specialises in artisan pies. The pies are made in the original Adams shop in Spalding, some of them following the recipes from years gone by. George Adams started the original Adams butchers shop with just £10 back in 1910. It gained an excellent reputation and the company grew and grew. By 1963 there were twenty shops and a pork pie factory. Soon after, it grew even bigger developing wholesaling activities and building an abattoir and several production sites. All this time the company was always family run and kept the original shop despite the fact it was now an enormous concern. George Adams, who had started the business, had a trading motto: “Personal involvement in all aspects of the company and a dedication to quality and service.” Unfortunately in the early 2000s the decision was made to sell the business due to health problems of the then managing director Mark Adams. The original butcher’s shop was left and carried on running as it always had done. Mary and Lizzi had always been involved in the family business, helping out in the summer holidays to earn extra pocket money. Mary went off to London after finishing university to work as the assistant grocery buyer at Fortnum and Mason in Piccadilly, which gave her a brilliant opportunity to learn more about food. Lizzi was more interested in the production side of things and carried on working for the family business learning everything she could about running a food manufacturing company. In 2010 Mary and Lizzi decided to join together to rebuild the company and rebrand themselves as Adams and Harlow and they launched their new business at the Speciality and Fine Food Fair in London. The girls have invested a lot of time, money and hard work in doing this A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication PAGE 02-05.indd 3 and it is certainly paying off. Of course they have had their ups and downs like all new businesses but they have always risen to the challenge. The first Christmas they were trading was one of the worst times. Power cuts meant that the ovens could not work and they had staffing problems too. Mary has memories of spending the night at the shop snatching sleep in between putting the next batch of pies in to bake. They have created fourteen varieties of pork pie all made with finest British pork. Their original hand raised pork pie tops the list and is followed by a glorious selection with an assortment of flavours to tempt any palate. My favourite so far, although I have not tasted them all, is the Poachers Pie. This is filled with seasoned pork with a layer of Lincolnshire Poacher cheese through the middle, topped with sweet roasted baby onions. There is the Gamekeeper Pie filled with venison, partridge and rabbit cooked in a sweet redcurrant sauce, then crowned with Morello cherries soaked in cognac; and a Pork and Stilton pie filled with finest Lincolnshire pork and Nottinghamshire’s Cropwell Bishop Stilton. The Ploughman’s contains seasoned pork, Red Leicester cheese and a helping of classic pickle while the Red Devil Pie is a pork pie with THERE ARE 14 VARIETIES OF PIE TO CHOOSE FROM TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE | 03 15/09/2015 11:26 | FOOD HEROES | ADAMS’ PAST: STAFF POSE AT THE COUNTER PAGE 02-05.indd 4 15/09/2015 11:26 | FOOD HEROES | SPALDING SHOP a hint of sweet chilli. How can you start to choose from all these amazing taste sensations? I have decided to work my way through them all. Others not mentioned yet are Chicken and Ham, in which tender chicken breast and ham are mixed together with a light blend of mixed herbs. The Oak Smoked Tomato is a classic pork pie topped with intense oak roasted tomatoes from the Isle of Wight. The Lincolnshire Pie is filled with sausage meat and the Huntsman is a jellyless pie, layered with seasoned pork meat and tender chicken breast topped with a classic sage and onion stuffing. Scrumpy is a pie filled with seasoned pork and sweet apple, and the Game pie contains chunky seasonal game encased in rich savoury jelly and crisp pastry. Last but not least are the Pork and Mustard pie and the original pork pie with nothing added. These pies can ADAMS’ PAST: THE EARLY DAYS A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication PAGE 02-05.indd 5 be bought in various different sizes. It is best to check availability on the website www.adamsandharlow.co.uk. You can also follow them on Facebook and Twitter and you can sign up to a mailing list so you can keep up with what is going on in the company. They have even done pork pie wedding cakes too! They did a five tier cake made of pork and chicken pies. The pies started at a huge six kilos at the bottom and worked up to the top tier of a half-a-kilo pie. It was 60cm high and cost £180. If you fancy something different at your wedding do get in touch with them. As was the way in the past each Adams and Harlow pork pie is individually made and only the finest ingredients are used including 100% British meat. Each hand raised pork pie is made over a two-day period with sixteen different stages to complete before it even enters the oven. They are made with extraordinary skill passed down the generations. I am sure that George Adams and Dick Harlow would be very proud of what their granddaughters are doing and would congratulate them on following in their footsteps but having the vision to adapt to a more modern market. TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE | 05 15/09/2015 11:27 | NEWS IN BRIEF | Stamford based professional chef crowned CLA Game Fair’s Game Chef of the Year Lincolnshire-based professional chef Phil Kent was crowned the 2015 CLA Game Fair’s Game Chef of the Year, held in association with The Field magazine. The competition was designed to find an unrecognised professional chef and amateur cook who both enjoy cooking with game meat and embrace the Great British Countryside through their food. The judges were leading game chef Mike Robinson and the editor of The Field, Jonathan Young. All finalists were asked to cook a loin of venison, provided by Home Farmed Venison, together with five ingredients of their choice and three mystery ingredients. Jaimie Haselock, who runs Champers & Hampers on the CLA Game Fair’s Picnic Lawn, in association with The Week, cooked his venison with poached carrots, roasted garlic and butternut squash. Phil Kent works at The William Cecil hotel on the Burghley Estate in Stamford. He cooked his venison with sautéed potatoes, blackberry compote and a madeira reduction. “I have never felt so nervous,” he commented, adding: “But I was really pleased with the food that I produced and wouldn’t have changed anything on the plate. I think the secret to cooking venison well is to let it rest sufficiently. This is the first time I have ever entered a competition so I am thrilled to have won.” Mallows & More is Great Taste 2015 star The world’s most coveted blind-tasted food awards, Great Taste, has just released the Great Taste stars of 2015 and Lincolnshire based Mallows & More is amongst the producers celebrating as its Lemon Marshmallows now proudly carry the little gold and black Great Taste logo. Judged by over 400 of the most demanding palates belonging to food critics, chefs, cooks, restaurateurs, producers and a host of food writers and journalists, Great Taste is widely acknowledged as the most respected food accreditation scheme for artisan and speciality food producers. “As a small local business I wanted some independent professional feedback on my product and as my Lemon mallows are the most popular I decided to enter them,” said Cassandra Jameson, owner of Mallows & More. “I was delighted to receive my star and one of the judge’s comments was that ‘it was definitely worth crossing the road for’ which made me smile. It’s been a bit of a whirlwind since the results were announced and I will be putting more of my flavours forward next year.” Interwar pub listed by Historic England Historic England has celebrated great pubs with a new listings across the country, one of which is in Lincolnshire. Between 1918 and 1939 breweries across the country rebuilt thousands of pubs, amongst which was The Berkeley Hotel in Scunthorpe. Built in the late 1930s, The Berkeley Hotel was commissioned by Edith Kennedy who in a highly unusual collaboration developed the pub in partnership with brewery Samuel Smith, decorated it and eventually ran it with her husband. It is a fine 06 | TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE PAGE 06.indd 2 and incredibly intact example of a ‘roadhouse’ pub which was the peak of the interwar ‘improved’ pub movement, designed with a large car park to attract both local and visiting customers. Punch with a kick This autumn, treat your taste buds to a punch with a kick and try Belvoir Fruit Farm’s new Spiced Ginger Punch made with cooked fresh ginger for a satisfyingly fiery bite, mingled enticingly with the mouth-watering sharpness of orange and lemon juices, plus real exotic spices for a finishing warmth on the tongue. Belvoir’s Spiced Ginger Punch is delicious simply poured into a mug and heated in a pan or the microwave to be drunk warm as a non-alcoholic winter punch; but, for those seeking even more of a kick, try adding a splash of whisky for a warming, spicy alcoholic treat, or mix with white wine for a lighter, mulled white wine punch. Spiced Ginger Punch is the latest addition to Belvoir’s range of drinks designed to be enjoyed warm to keep out the winter chill. The other varieties in the collection are: Spiced Winter Berries; Honey, Lemon & Ginger Cordial; Apple, Plum & Cinnamon Cordial; Spiced Apple & Ginger Cordial and the festive, ready-todrink Mulled Winter Punch. All are delicious served warm on their own or with your favourite alcoholic tipple added. The punch will be available from October.

I think both Jane and I shocked ourselves slightly when we backtracked and worked out that it was seventeen years ago when I made my first visit to the farm. At that time they were bringing up their young family, Jane was working to establish a network of Farmers’ Markets across the county, the retail shop had just opened and Terry was putting in long days managing their naturally reared free range pigs as well as manning their stall at the markets. When I visited this summer the pace was still hectic but after a very delicious lunch Terry and Jane took me on a tour of the farm. Their ethos, since they moved to the 180 acres and began to build their home and business, has been based on simple artisan principles. Here they farm, produce and sell their pork products taking care at every stage to show respect to the meat they produce. The grain for their animals is grown on their own and neighbouring fields, milled and brought back to feed the herd. It was a warm day so there was plenty of rooting by the pigs to find the cooler earth below the surface; 08 | TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE PAGE 08.indd 2 farrowing sows one side of the field and their offspring growing naturally at their own pace on the other. Each Monday morning livestock is taken to be slaughtered and returns to the farm to be butchered. “We have worked over these years to build strong relationships with our customers,” explained Jane. “They can be assured of the extra care and attention that we give our livestock. This trust is not easily won but we know it has been consistency and outstanding quality which has earned us our reputation and loyal customer following.” This year has also seen the completion of a major investment at Redhill Farm. “It has taken three years of planning and construction but earlier this year we opened our new purposebuilt butchery and kitchens with bakery and smokery as well as a spacious new Farm Shop.” The processing of the pork can be overseen by visitors through viewing windows on a walkway which runs to the side of the building. Here the same care and simple hand skills are used by members of the Redhill Farm team to make their range of products including dry cured bacon, hand raised pies, sausages and haslet. Farmers’ Markets are still the way most Lincolnshire customers buy their favourite Redhill Farm product but you can also find their free range pork on the menus of a select number of hotels across the country, as well as in restaurants and delis. The new Farm Shop has its own butchery and chilled counters as the public access to the new production building. The country style shop also stocks a wide range of Lincolnshire award winning produce including drinks, honey, cheeses, jams, chutneys and giftware with a home and garden theme. There is also fresh lamb from the farm’s own Zwartble and Charollais sheep and fresh beef from their British Blue herd. Certainly Jane and Terry have been recognised as amongst the very finest producers in the UK, winning significant national awards and accolades. Redhill Farm products have been winners of Great Taste Awards every year for the past decade and earlier this year Jane was invited to a Number 10 Downing Street reception recognising the DEFRA UK ’50 Food Stars’ 2015. Jane and Terry have certainly achieved so much but Jane summed up the reason for their enduring success: “In everything we do we want to stand out from the crowd and concentrate on producing the very best.” You can find out more about Redhill Farm Free Range Pork at: www.redhillfarm.com or visit the Farm Shop at Redhill Farm,Laughton Lane, Morton, Gainsborough, Lincolnshire DN21 3DT Tel: 01427 628270 JANE TOMLINSON IN THE NEW FARM SHOP A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication 15/09/2015 11:30 THE THREE KINGS COUNTRY INN & RESTAURANT AWARD-WINNING CM hri err stm y as THREEKINGHAM | SLEAFORD |LINCOLNSHIRE | NG34 0AU WWW.THETHREEKINGSINN.COM | TELEPHONE: 01529 240 249 FOOD & CASK ALES How to find us: The Three Kings Inn is a historical coaching inn located in the beautiful village of Threekingham in Lincolnshire, just off the A52 Boston to Grantham road, approximately 7 miles south of Sleaford.

First prepare the garlic for the mash. Cut the head of garlic in half horizontally and place both halves, cut side up, on a sheet of tin foil. Drizzle with half of the rapeseed oil and season with sea salt and black pepper. Loosely wrap the foil over the top of the garlic to make a parcel and twist the edges to seal. Place on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 30 – 40 minutes, until the garlic is completely soft and lightly caramelised. For the sausages, heat the rapeseed oil in a casserole dish or heavy based saucepan and brown the sausages well on all sides. Remove from the pan and set aside. Add the onion and cook over a low heat for 10 minutes until soft and translucent. Add the juniper berries and flour and cook for a further 2 minutes. Blend in the balsamic vinegar, red wine and stock, stirring all the time, until you have a smooth, thickened sauce. Add the redcurrant jelly and herbs and return the sausages to the pan. Simmer gently for 15 minutes. For the mash, place the potatoes in a large pan of salted water and bring to the boil. Simmer until tender, drain very well and purée through a ricer for a very smooth texture. If you do not have a ricer just ensure that you mash the potatoes as smoothly as possible. Season well with sea salt and black pepper and squeeze in the roasted garlic cloves. Add the remaining rapeseed oil and beat in well. Serve with the sausages and sauce.

Cheese is both a day-to-day food and an artisanal treat to be savoured on cold winter evenings. When it comes to artisanal cheeses, Lincolnshire offers some of the best in the country. While every cheesemaker will have their own secret recipes and methods, it is quite clear that in Lincolnshire we have something of an edge when it comes to making this coagulated milk product. While the origins of cheese are altogether unknown, it is generally accepted that the Romans invaded Britain with their love of cheese during their occupation around 2,000 years ago. Due to Lincoln’s status as a major Roman town, it is probable that Lincolnshire’s relationship with cheese began then. After the fall of the Roman Empire, cheese along with other artisanal products like mead and beer, were entrusted to monks. Monasteries developed the cheese making process over several hundred years and the different techniques in each monastery led to a flourishing of variety amongst British cheeses. Unfortunately, 1,100 years after the Romans left Britain, Henry VIII closed all monasteries during the creation of the Church of England. And so, national cheese production suffered massively, until more modern and industrial methods of cheese making were developed a few hundred years later. Though cheese was now able to be produced on a large scale, the artisanal variation of cheeses of the monasteries was still lacking. It wasn’t until the early 1970s when a Campaign for Real Cheese began under the guidance of Patrick Rance, who is often regarded as the ‘Champion of Cheese’. Since then artisanal dairies have sprung up across the country, including Lincolnshire, with each county having its own specialities. Cheese competitions have become something of a national and international phenomenon and help to give the best cheeses the attention they deserve. Lincolnshire is the home of a variety of dairies, each making their own unique cheeses and winning numerous awards and accolades in the process. Firstly, Cote Hill Farm of Osgodby, Market Rasen, a family run farm which has been making cheese for ten A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication PAGE 14-17.indd 3 LINCOLNSHIRE POACHER CHEESE years. Cote Hill produces a variety of cheese including Cote Hill Blue, Cote Hill Yellow and Cote Hill Red. These cheeses have won a whole host of awards including a ‘Super Gold’ from the World Cheese Awards, and are sold around the country in shops and delis whilst also being served at several hotels. Lincolnshire Poacher Cheese from Ulceby Farm is another one of Lincolnshire’s best dairies, using traditional methods along with unpasteurised milk to produce their cheeses. They produce four cheeses: three varieties of Lincolnshire Poacher (smoked, unsmoked and vintage) and also Lincolnshire Red which is reminiscent of the classic Red Leicester cheese. Lincolnshire Poacher has won both Supreme Champion at the British Cheese Awards and Best British Cheese at the World Cheese Awards in the past.

The Goatwood Dairy run by John & Carolyn Gunner on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds produces four cheeses. Each is named after a village near the edge of the Wolds: Langton, Bardney, Kingthorpe and Apley. The dairy’s cheeses are also award winning, and they have won two Gold Awards at the British Cheese Awards, so far. Cheddar is another variety of cheese made in Lincolnshire, with both Parkview Dambuster Cheddar and Lincoln Little Imp. Quite clearly from both of their names you can tell the cheeses are Lincolnshire cheeses, with Dambuster honouring Scampton’s famous 617 Squadron and Little Imp borrowing from the well-known image of the Lincoln Imp. Both are very strong cheddars that go well with chutneys to balance their flavour. Lymn Bank Farm which makes various flavoured cheeses also makes several artisan cheeses, including Skegness Blue, Skegness Gold and Lincolnshire Brie, which the farm proudly presents as the only Brie made in Lincolnshire. From all of these cheeses its plain to see that not only are they fantastic products but they also carry the name of Lincolnshire wherever they go, they are heralds in dairy form. Around the county there are also some fantastic specialist cheese shops, many of which sell the county’s local cheeses. The Cheese Society in Lincoln sells a huge variety of cheese from a wide assortment of places, from England to Italy and Wales to Norway. The shop also offers online cheese shopping LINCOLNSHIRE POACHER CHEESEMAKING that can be delivered to your door, so if you think you are too far from one of these amazing cheese suppliers you can bring the shop to you. The Cheese Shop in Louth much like Lincolnshire’s cheeses is award winning. The artisan delicatessen has won the food category in ‘The Best Small Food Shops in Britain Awards’, a competition run by retail consultant and broadcaster Mary Portas. Stamford Cheese Cellar not only sells cheese in their normal capacity but also wedding cheese cakes, and no this doesn’t mean a vanilla cheesecake but in fact cheeses in the shape of cakes, complete with grapes, figs and other fruits. Whether for a special treat or a dinner party, support our Lincolnshire dairies, you certainly won’t be disappointed. Many of their websites have a wide range of recipe ideas, or substitute a local cheese into one of your favourite meals for a Lincolnshire twist. This once historic practice has become a fantastic modern artisanal craft, of which the whole county should be proud.

Also attending the Lincolnshire Food and Gift Fair this year will be the Naked Marshmallow Co, who enjoyed trading at the event for the first time last year. Ollie Rendall, director and co-founder of the Naked Marshmallow Co, said: “We set up the marshmallow business last year in November and the Lincolnshire Food and Gift Fair was our first ever event. We had no idea what to expect and I remember thinking the night before, what if we don’t sell anything? “After the first full day of trading, we had nothing left. We had completely sold out which was amazing and we spent the following evening and early hours making more stock to meet demand. The next day was just as busy. “We can’t wait to return to the Fair this year and this time we will be returning with our bestselling marshmallow toasting kit plus a few surprise gift items for visitors which we will be keeping top secret until the event!” Visitors will also be able to enjoy two local choirs and an array of seasonal activities from wreath making to homemade Christmas cards.

The Minster School Great Bake Off It was cake galore at the Lincoln Minster School Holiday Club Bake Off. With a theme of the Great Outdoors, and not to include people and pets, kids were given the opportunity to let their creative sides run wild in the 2015 Bake Off week. Judges John Marshall, Lincs FM, Paul Johnson, Sous Chef at the Lincoln Hotel and Lincolnshire Life’s Katrina Burrill tasted fourteen very different options before crowning the winner and runners-up. This year the children were given carte blanche on flavour and decoration which meant the judges sampled some lovely flavoured cakes. The 2015 winner was Isobel Reetham who injected lemon into her cake using a syringe and decorated the two tier cake with a waterfall in the woods theme. Runner-up Connor had an imaginative volcano theme, using chocolate fingers to support his icing and Edward also had a waterfall theme with signposts to popular Lincolnshire destinations. Well done to all who took part.

So far almost 50 of the 90 shops, restaurants and hotels approached have come forward with offers of help in response to a range of options suggested by the park’s Trustees and more are signing up all the time. Several have taken part in the Royal Jubilee Project – offering products and services that automatically generate a donation to the park. Butcher Russell Hirst has created a steak and Bateman’s ale pie and new tea shop and vintage product specialist Vintique has designed Woodhall Spa themed cushions and bags. Local ice cream producer Dennett’s has made a special Strawberries and Cream ice cream, sold by the cone or litre tubs at Sweet Memories, and on offer on the menu at the Abbey Lodge and Village Limits. Opticks opticians make a donation for each pair of sunglasses sold and Peter Scott for every pair of bowling/ croquet shoes purchased. Every full price wedding dress sold at the Ivory Room bridal boutique also generates a donation. In return the park promotes business supporters on its website and with leaflets and displays during major events. “We will build on the success of this year’s business support for 2016 starting early in the new year,” explained Trustee Amarylis Midgely, “so everyone has plenty of time to plan their contribution.” Uncle Henry’s receives industry accolade The 2015 Meat Management Industry Awards ceremony brought together the top names in the UK meat industry to reward the best, products, people, services and suppliers in the business, as voted for by readers of Meat Management magazine and judged by industry experts.

Their success comes just three years after the pair took the plunge and launched their business in one of the best-loved parts of the city – award-winning Steep Hill. “We are thrilled to have won this award. It is particularly appreciated because the winners are chosen on the basis of a public vote, so it shows we are doing the right things,” said Matt. “Our first priority is to give people a warm welcome and to ensure they receive a really good service, which makes them want to come back. “Our premises previously operated as a tearoom, but we wanted to put our personal stamp on it. We’ve done that by buying mismatched vintage crockery, Henry’s Farm Shop, Butchery & Café just north of Lincoln in Grayingham was one of four finalists for the prestigious Britain’s Best Butcher’s Shop category at the Meat Management awards. Talking about their success in being a finalist Emma Ward, general manager at Uncle Henry’s said: “We are delighted to have been recognised as one of the top four Britain’s Best Butcher’s Shops. Our butchery prides itself on our home reared pork products and local beef, lamb and poultry and it’s great to be recognised for our team’s hard work and dedication to producing top quality products for our customers.” including scores of teapots, and creating further nostalgia by displaying old photographs on the walls and on tabletops. They are a real talking point. “Lincoln is popular with both visitors and locals because it has a wonderful mix of national and independent businesses.

Remove turkey giblets and reserve. Rinse the turkey inside and out and dry well. Place the turkey in a large roasting pan, brush the turkey generously with rapeseed oil and season with sea salt and black pepper and cover with foil. Place the prepared turkey in the pre-heated oven and cook at this temperature for the first 30 minutes. Then, lower the oven temperature to 180°C/Gas Mark 4 and cook for approximately 30 minutes per kilo, basting every hour. To prepare the stuffing, heat the butter and rapeseed oil until the butter has melted. Add the shallot and fry gently until well softened but not browned. Stir in the garlic and season well with sea salt and black pepper. Remove from the heat and place in a bowl, leave to cool. Peel the apples, cut into quarters, remove the core and cut into small cubes. Mix the figs, apples, breadcrumbs, sage, sausage meat and parsley with the shallots, season well with sea salt and black pepper using clean hands and then mix in the beaten egg. The mixture should be quite firm; with wet hands, mould the stuffing into balls the size of a golf ball. Place on a greased baking sheet and bake in the pre-heated oven for about 20 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through. Alternatively you can use the mixture to stuff an onion, per person, and place the rest of the mixture into an ovenproof dish to cook. Take one small onion per person and peel, leaving the top of the onion intact and the base root in place. Peel and boil, whole, in salted boiling water for 8-10 minutes, until just soft, drain and cool in cold water. Drain and cut the top off the onion, about three quarters of the way up, so as to make a lid. Using a sharp knife, hollow out the onion and stuff with the stuffing mixture, replace the lid and brush all over with rape seed oil. Bake for 30-35 minutes in the oven alongside the turkey until cooked through and slightly caramelised. When the turkey is approximately 35 minutes before the end of cooking, remove the foil, drain off any of the excess fat ROASTED TURKEY WITH FIG, APPLE AND SHALLOT STUFFING WITH FRESH SAGE A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication PAGE 22-26.indd 3 TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE | 23 15/09/2015 11:46 | CHRISTMAS | CIDER GLAZED ROASTED FENLAND CELERY WITH CRISPY PARMESAN TOPPING TRAY BAKED STICKY SAUSAGES WITH PICCOLO PARSNIPS, APPLES AND SAGE and cook for a further 35 minutes or until golden brown.

Cut the apples into quarters, remove the core and cut each piece in half, put in a bowl, squeeze some of the lemon juice over the apple pieces and reserve. Place the browned sausages, Piccolo and red onion wedges in the marinade and coat well. Place the sausage mixture in a roasting tray and roast in the oven for 25 minutes, then add the apple and coat well in the juices and roast for a further 15 minutes until cooked – keep basting well. 15/09/2015 11:47 Serve with winter slaw, potato wedges and homemade ketchup Roast Potatoes, Parsnips and Shallots with Pancetta and Bay Leaves Serves 6 www.ukshallot.com Ingredients: 1.5kg potatoes, medium sized, peeled 900g parsnips, medium sized, peeled 2 tbsp plain flour 1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped, plus a few sprigs 6-8 tbsp rapeseed oil 12 shallots, peeled 200g pancetta, roughly chopped 6 whole bay leaves Sea salt and black pepper Method: Preheat oven to 200°C/Gas 6. Cut any large potatoes in half and all of the parsnips in half lengthways, cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for 8 minutes or until par-boiled. Meanwhile, cook the parsnips in the same way in another pan for 4 minutes. Drain the potatoes well then return to the pan and cover. Shake the pan to roughen the edges of the potatoes. Drain the parsnips and toss them in the flour, chopped thyme and seasoning. Pour the rapeseed oil into a large roasting tin and heat in the oven; you need around 1cm of oil in the tin. Add the potatoes and turn them over in the oil using a slotted spoon. Roast uncovered for 15-20 minutes, remove the tin from the oven and turn the potatoes, add the parsnips and shallots and turn them in the oil too. Roast for a further 35-40 minutes then turn all of the vegetables again, add the pancetta. Increase the heat to 220°C/ Gas 7 for a further 15-20 minutes, adding the thyme sprigs and bay leaves for the final 10 minutes. Sprinkle with a little sea salt and black pepper and serve immediately. Cider Glazed Roasted Fenland Celery with Crispy Parmesan Topping www.fenlandcelery.com Serves 4 This fills the kitchen with the most wonderful aroma as the Fenland celery cooks and softens.

Place in the oven for 45 minutes, remove the foil and greaseproof paper. Mix together the parmesan, breadcrumbs, parsley and olive oil, sprinkle over the Fenland celery and cook for another 15-20 minutes until the topping is golden. Cook’s tip: Fenland celery is a heritage variety of celery grown in the Cambridgeshire Fens. In 2013, Fenland celery was awarded Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status and joined the ranks of Parma ham, Champagne and Melton Mowbray Pork Pies. Fenland celery is only grown in small pockets of Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and Norfolk using traditional farming methods. The deep, peaty soils in the Fens work towards giving Fenland celery its nutty-sweet flavour and paler colour. Fenland celery is available from October to December and can be found in Waitrose, Ocado, Wholefoods and Marks & Spencer. Honey Glazed Brussels Sprouts & Beetroot with Blue Cheese & Walnuts Serves 4 www.lovebeetroot.com Who said Brussels sprouts need to be boring? Perfect for Christmas, this tasty recipe combines Brussels sprouts with sweet beetroot, creamy blue cheese and crunchy walnuts and is delicious any day of the year. Ingredients: 680g Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved 2 tbsp olive oil 1 tbsp butter 3 cloves garlic, minced 60ml water ¼ tsp salt TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE | 25 15/09/2015 11:48 | CHRISTMAS | 2 tbsp honey 250g pack cooked beetroot, diced 25g crumbled blue cheese 25g walnuts, chopped Method: In a large frying pan, heat the oil and butter to medium heat. Add the Brussels sprouts and allow them to cook cut-side down for 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown. Add the garlic and the water and cook for 3 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally. Put a lid on the pan and cook for 5-8 minutes, or until all of the liquid is absorbed and Brussels sprouts are cooked to your liking. Add the honey and chopped beetroot and heat for 1-2 minutes until the beetroot is hot. Transfer the sautéed Brussels sprouts and beetroot to a serving dish and add the blue cheese crumbles and chopped walnuts. Toss everything together and serve. Steamed Walnut & Date Sticky Toffee Pudding Create Individual puddings or one large pudding. ADAM DOWSETT For the sauce: 250g soft dark brown sugar, 250ml double cream, 50g butter, Pinch salt Method: Place sugar into a heavy bottomed saucepan and slowly heat to melt and dissolve the sugar, then allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Add the cream and bring back to a simmer for a further five minutes then remove from the heat. Add the softened butter and stir in with a wooden spoon until completely incorporated. Put sauce to one side to allow to cool. For the pudding mixture: 250g chopped dates 2 tbsp black treacle 1 level tbsp cinnamon 1 level tsp nutmeg Fresh orange juice to cover 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda 650g butter 650g soft dark brown sugar 12 free range large eggs 650g good quality self-raising flour 1 tablespoon baking powder Walnut pieces Method: Place the dates, treacle, cinnamon and nutmeg in a deep saucepan and cover the contents with the orange juice. Gently heat the mixture until a thick paste is formed, then carefully add the bicarbonate of soda and mix together. Set to one side to cool. Using a wooden spoon and some elbow grease, mix the softened butter with the sugar and whip until light and fluffy. Gradually add the eggs to the mix, a little at a time to avoid curdling the mixture. Add the cooled date mixture. Gradually add the sieved flour and baking powder. In the bottom of the individual pudding moulds or one large tin, place some of the walnut pieces – quantity depends on your preference. Drizzle a tablespoon of the cooled sauce over the walnuts. Now place some of the sponge mix on top of the sauce around 3-4cm deep. Cover the moulds with greaseproof paper and foil and place in a tray. For best results, steam for two hours, or place in a bains-marie in the oven for an hour at 160°C. Test the puddings using a skewer – the skewer should come out clean when cooked. To serve: Simply tip the mould upside down and you should be left with a beautifully formed pudding topped with walnut pieces with the sauce soaked into the sponge and cascading down the sides. Put the remainder of the sauce into a serving jug and let your guests go crazy. To finish the puddings off, serve with a scoop of Dennett’s of Spilsby homemade Lincolnshire caramel ice cream.

Caroline Bingham went to meet Lincoln Sausage Festival organiser Mark Brewer, as he finalised plans for this year’s event. PAGE 27-29.indd 3 15/09/2015 11:50 | LINCOLN SAUSAGE FESTIVAL 2015 | Now in its thirteenth year, the Lincoln Sausage Festival not only celebrates this essential of the classic Full English Breakfast but is also a popular date in the diary for many locals and visitors to Lincoln. Virgin Trains East Coast will be laying on an extra service on Saturday 24th October, leaving King’s Cross at 9.10am, to accommodate the additional day visitor demand. The festival is organised by Mark Brewer of the Rotary Club of Lincoln Colonia, in association with Select Lincolnshire, Lincolnshire County Council and Lincoln BIG. Held against the backdrop of the city’s majestic uphill area and Cathedral, the festival is held in the grounds of Lincoln Castle and on Castle Hill. Thousands of visitors come along to enjoy cooking demonstrations (this year in the main marquee by local celebrity chef Rachel Green), the many food stalls, children’s entertainment and live music. 28 | TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE PAGE 27-29.indd 4 “We began this festival as a service to the local community,” explained Mark, “and its popularity seems to grow each year. For the first time we are charging a nominal entry fee of £1 for adults to help cover the cost of stewarding services. This will be redeemable against entrance fees to the Castle exhibitions and Wall Walk which people may additionally want to visit. “This really is a celebration of all things sausage and Neil Curtis of Curtis’ of Lincoln will be demonstrating sausage making – people can have a go themselves; Redhill Free Range Pork have kindly sponsored our Children’s Marquee where chef Debbie Kenyon will be holding cookery demonstrations. We have our mascot Mr Sausage himself, street entertainers Cosmic Sausage as well as Matto and Polo the Europa Clowns.” Well over 25,000 sausages are either bought or consumed at the festival, with visitors finding it too hard to resist the delicious aromas and variety of flavours of bangers on offer. “We have over sixty stallholders taking part, as well as LIVES providing first aid support and raising awareness of the volunteer first responder work they do across the county. “The funds raised are used to support our annual Rotary ‘Kids Out’ Day when we take approximately thirty disadvantaged children and their carers out for a day trip. It is a big project for me and the other club members who attend A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication 15/09/2015 11:50 | LINCOLN SAUSAGE FESTIVAL 2015 | on the day but the event’s continued popularity makes it all worthwhile.” The Lincoln Sausage Festival 2015 is being held on Saturday 24th October from 10am to 5pm. Entry fee £1 for adults. THE AUTHENTIC LINCOLNSHIRE SAUSAGE If there is one product known across the UK, synonymous with our great county, it is the Lincolnshire Sausage. How frustrating that the campaign to gain EU geographical protected status for our great banger, even after three attempts, has not been successful. The keeping of pigs and the tasty variety of pork products made from them, is a county heritage which stretches back centuries. There are many folklores and traditions which endure about keeping these animals and using every part ‘except the squeak’ to feed the family. The authentic Lincolnshire Sausage is a meaty, spicy delicacy, using ground rather A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication PAGE 27-29.indd 5 than minced pork to achieve a coarser texture which is then flavoured with sage and condiments. Each butcher, even today, still has their own interpretation and secret recipe for their sausage. As judges at the bi-annual Lincolnshire Poacher Food Competition know, there is fierce competition between the butchers and bakers who enter to be crowned winner of each category and ultimately, Butcher of the Year. As tastes have become more exotic and sophisticated, butchers have also expanded their sausage range to include continental influences, locally made cheeses, fruit, vegetables and spices. One of the enjoyments of local food fairs, farmers’ markets and the annual Sausage Festival is grazing the stalls to try as many variations of this versatile treat as possible. But you cannot beat the authentic taste of a Lincolnshire Sausage as part of a traditional full English breakfast. The perfect start to any day.

A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication 15/09/2015 11:54 | BAKING | Christmas jumper cookies The cookie recipe I’m sharing is brilliantly easy to make and tastes divinely Christmassy, with its warming spices of cinnamon and ginger. You can pick up jumper shaped cookie cutters in most good cook shops and I love the idea that you can play granny at her own game and give her a Christmas jumperin return that she can really enjoy! DOMINIC FRANKS For the cookies: 180g golden caster sugar 150g butter 50g ground almonds 350g plain flour 1 large egg 1/2 tsp baking powder 1 tsp ground cinnamon 1 tsp ground ginger For the icing: 700g icing sugar 2 egg whites 1 tsp lemon juice Method: To make the cookies, take a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar till fluffy and then add the rest of the ingredients, stirring until it comes together to form a dough – pop this into cling-film and into the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Roll out and cut into shapes – bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 15 mins on 170C until just beginning to turn golden. Set aside to cool completely. A Lincolnshire Life Magazine publication PAGE 31.indd 3 To make the icing, take a large bowl and beat the egg whites and lemon juice with an electric beater until the egg whites are soft peaks. Add half the icing sugar and beat again for about 4 minutes, then add the remaining icing sugar and beat until stiff peaks are formed. Then split into two and add green and red food colouring and stir until well combined. A small piping bag or a piping syringe is a great tip here. All the best for a Merry Christmas! TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE | 31 15/09/2015 11:56 | TASTE OF EXCELLENCE | County Food & Drink Awards 2015 It’s been a busy few months at Taste of Excellence HQ. In May we launched our eighteenth annual Food & Drink Awards, and this year we are proud to add a further six categories to our list. Since our launch we have received thousands of nominations, from you the public, for your favourite pub, restaurant, tea shop, accommodation and farm shop. As we go to press our judges are out and about sampling menus from our shortlisted businesses and we will be announcing these at the end of September. Our awards offer businesses across the county the chance to get involved. There is no form filling out for the owners, just a nudge in the right direction for your customers. We are proud that our awards reflect what the customers feel are their best choices. NEW FOR 2015 2015 has been an exciting year for our awards and we have announced a further six categories. These are: Chef of the Year Accommodation of the Year Farm Shop of the Year New Business of the Year Most Innovative Product of the Year Wedding Venue of the Year 32 | TASTE LINCOLNSHIRE PAGE 32 & 33.indd 2 Our Chef of the Year category has seen chefs from around the county supply a three-course menu. On 5th October we will see the five finalists create their menu for our panel of judges in the historic College Hall at RAF College Cranwell. We have been receiving exciting submissions for our New Business and Most Innovative Product of the Year categories and our panel of testers and tasters are on standby for the products they need to sample. The Accommodation and Farm Shop category have received many votes. It has been great to see where our customers are staying locally and buying their local produce. The Wedding Venue of the Year category is the last of our new categories. Lincolnshire Life has long promoted county weddings. With a bi-annual magazine and annual Wedding Fair, we know some of the best venues in the county, but it has been great to see feedback from the brides and their guests about their own experiences. We will still be awarding our four original awards: Best Pub Food, Restaurant and Tea/ Coffee Shop are firm favourites amongst our readers, and we are always happy to see new places popping up around the county. Our final award is Young Chef of the Year. If it wasn’t for the new talent coming up through our colleges the hospitality industry would not be so vibrant. We have worked in conjunction with Lincoln College to find young talent for many years, and this year we are excited to announce we will also be judging talent from Boston, Grantham and Grimsby Colleges, which will see a great final. Our awards with be nothing though without a celebration Awards Evening. Our 2015 awards will be held at Oaklands Hall Hotel, Laceby near Grimsby on Thursday 12th November.

HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS, LINCOLN CITY CENTRE – SPONSOR OF THE MOST INNOVATIVE PRODUCT OF THE YEAR CATEGORY Holiday Inn Express Lincoln has been a feature of Lincoln’s skyline for six years. The 118 bed hotel features many modern amenities including free wi-fi throughout, complimentary breakfast with hot and cold items, evening meals and parking. Holiday Inn Express, Lincoln manager, Darren Spencer-Phillips said: “We are excited to be part of the Taste of Excellence Awards. When we chose our category, we wanted to go for something that would promote some of the smaller county businesses with their products. There are lots of artisan food and drink makers in Lincolnshire and we are looking forward to seeing what it is out there.” FRESHTIME – SPONSOR OF THE CHEF OF THE YEAR CATEGORY Fresthime, which employs 350 people at its site on the town’s Riverside Industrial Estate, provides prepared vegetables, snacks and salads to leading supermarkets and multinationals as well as restaurants and other food service industries. Managing director Mark Newton said the Freshtime team is delighted to be involved in the event and help raise the profile of the Lincolnshire food and drink industry. “The reason we chose to support the Chef of the Year category is because it is more in keeping with our values,” explains Mark. “We have our own in-house chefs here, who do an awful lot of work to create new recipes and we just felt this award fitted well with our own ethos.” OAKLANDS HALL HOTEL Set in a private estate built in 1877, the Best Western Oaklands Hall Hotel, Laceby, near Grimsby is nestled in five acres of beautiful Lincolnshire parkland between the Lincolnshire Wolds and the River Humber. Perfect for exploring the beautiful surrounding countryside, the historic city of Lincoln, the PAGE 32 & 33.indd 3 busy port town of Grimsby, the seaside resort of Cleethorpes, and the emerging city of Hull. Head Chef Steve Bennett said: “It’s important that the industry promotes personal development for young and upcoming chefs as well as the aspiration of young people wanting to step into this exciting trade. Young chefs need to grasp opportunities such as these awards as they’re a great way to showcase their passion and skills for their work in the professional kitchen. There’s currently a huge national shortage of chefs and it’s so important for us to try and inspire young people to step into such an exciting and rewarding trade. As a chef for over 20 years I’m a huge ambassador of supporting young chefs stepping into the trade and giving opportunities and transferring skills where possible.” crafted, providing you with quality and great taste. HEART OF GOLD – SPONSOR OF THE TEA/COFFEE SHOP OF THE YEAR CATEGORY Lovingly made on a farm where people care about tradition and craft, and where they love to keep your food miles low. Only oilseed rape that’s grown in the beautiful Vale of Belvoir is allowed into Heart of Gold oil. Their fields are less than a mile from the pressing room. The seeds are cold pressed with care and attention and filtered for extra purity, giving the oil a fresh, wholesome taste you’ll adore.

HOUSE OF TOWNEND – SPONSOR OF THE RESTAURANT OF THE YEAR CATEGORY House of Townend was established in 1906, and has remained in the ownership of the same family for over 100 years. For four generations they have built direct relationships with some of the finest wine producers in the world. Their buying emphasis lies firmly with the smaller, quality led, and often family owned, wine estates and domaines who possess like-minded philosophies. Whilst the traditional wine producer is an important part of their portfolio, they work hard at being at the cutting edge of the wine world, seeking out the new star performers, ensuring they get into the supply chain before they become renowned and obtaining supplies becomes impossible.
