Fork Biscuits (with Goat Butter)

These biscuits are super easy to make and this reciepe makes a good lot, I have been making these for a while but have now adapted the reciepe for goats butter.

They are a family favourite and are knocked up with reasonable regularity.
















The ingredents are there in the picture as shown

4 1/2oz of Goats butter (softened)
5oz of self raising flour
2oz of caster sugar

and thats it!




Method Pre heat the oven to 180 ° C (please adjust down slightly for fan assisit ovens)

Put the butter in the bowl and beat to soften

Add the Sugar and Flour into the butter and mix together to form a dough like consitency

Get two lined baking trays and roll lumps about the size of a large strawberry






Using a fork dipped into water, press down the dough balls to flattern and texture.

Place in the oven and bake until golden in colour around 15 mins 
Once cooked place on cooling tray and guard from the family 

Enjoy with a lovely cuppa!!

The great Methane problem- an update 1

Image
On the 19th I wrote my thought to you on Methane and the enviromental impacts from my milk consumption and promised an update. Since then I have continued to have my tea black, I have had two white (one because I forgot to tell my mother in law that I had changed the way I took my tea and secondly because I was half asleep and just reverted to the old norm!!) I have slashed my cheese intake and nolonger go for the cheese and crackers after the kidds have gone to bed, I'd like to day I had given up snacking but that would be a lie of pinnocio proportions So given that we were away for a couple of days last week it's not wholly acurate but just through the changes I have made, our milk consumption has gone from 18 pints to no more than 12 aweek and a 600g block of cheese appears to now last two weeks not just one.

A couple of days away helps to focus the mind

Stayed in a pub just outside in a village called Chilham and then a trip on the Kent and East Sussex railway from Tenterden to Bodium and back. I can't say that we were overly lavish but when we are on holiday I try and leave the pauper behind and just enjoy ourselves. I have no assosiation with any of the places we went and I have no financial interest in any, that said I would like to give you a small review on a few bits First Canterbury, A lovely place to visit and if you have kids then there is a super playarea near the west gate park which is free and well kept. We went to a little tearoom called Shelly's Tearoom in Chilham which I reviewed on Google by saying that it is the sort of little gem that you just don't get anymore The place we stayed was the Woolpack Inn and the family room was superb, Food was good (maybe a little...

I love to make the rhubarb crumble and it is so easy. The recipe is below:- You will require:- Rhubarb to cover the bottom of a flan dish the one above is 9" diameter and requires 3 to 5 sticks 3 table spoons of caster sugar 1 tea spoon of ground Ginger for the topping 8oz of Plain flour 6oz of Demerara sugar 4oz of soften butter/margarine First cut the Rhubarb into lengths around 2" long and wash in cold water Next pre heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Place rhubarb in the flan dish so it evenly covers the bottom and place 1/4" of cold water into the dish. Sprinkle the Caster Sugar on top evenly and place in the oven for 10 minutes.
