Well-cooked spinach


After Friday's experience it will doubtless relieve all to learn that today I was made some well-cooked spinach: boiled, with its colour retained and served with salt. Very nice.

I'm pretty rubbish at making puddings, but not displeased with my mini apple crumbles as seen here served in a shot glass. The base is crushed digestive biscuit, the middle layer apple stewed in lemon juice with demerara sugar and the top layer double cream beaten till thick with cinnamon. I bought the shot glasses so as to make fun, small puddings that ape flashy ones you might be served in restaurants, and am now trying to think of other layered combos to try. Cherries and chocolate keep coming to mind, but I'm not sure how to make it work.
