Your Chef Blogg end July

“Your Chef” Blogg

Well firstly congratulations to Louise and Matthew who got married on Saturday in Brigg, we catered for their reception and they had a lovely day. The rain didn’t dampen their enjoyment of the day one iota. The groom’s band played and there were really very good. We wish them every future happiness together.

A busy time ahead at “Your Chef”, with bookings in August being up on last year despite the recession. We have also taken wedding bookings for next year. Christmas parties are proving to be very popular this year and The Angel are holding Christmas parties which promise to be a great night out and which are filing up fast, with some being sold out already. Contact Karen at the Angel Suite for further information.

This week’s recipe is for Lemon Curd Brulee, a really simple but very effective dessert; it is quite rich so make it in small pots. I thought with the jam making season well under way some of you may be also making lemon curd. It is nice served with a ginger snap and a few fresh berries.


Really easy Lemon Curd Brulee (delicious gluten free pudding)
