Hi folks!

I will start this blog by giving some recipes that have been requested from me by guests and friends.


We will start with some vegetarian recipes that Barbara and Ty Rosenkotter liked during their recent tour with us. 


Hi Barbara! I didn't forget you. Can you please give Craig and Cathie these recipes or direct them to my blog;) The cook book for the Majestic Line is now available but my own one is still at the design stage but as I've said, if you need a recipe, idea or any questions the just ask..it may be while before I answer, well a few days as you know.


PLOUGHMAN'S SOUP


I suppose that this idea came from my love of cheese and pickle and the idea of a beer soup, then things sort of worked themselves out.


ingredients


5 slices of brown or wholemeal bread
1pint/500ml dark beer or ale, not stout
2 teaspoons of made mustard, I prefer English
1pint/500ml made vegetable stock, I use the brand Marigold
12oz/350gm grated cheddar, medium strength
salt and white pepper to taste
120z/350gm onion
2oz/60gm butter


white bread toasted and sandwich pickle to garnish


method


1. turn bread into crumbs in food processor until fine.
2. fry onions in butter till softened, then add crumbs and fry for 2 minutes 
3. add beer and mustard and bring to boil
4. add add cheese and blend with hand blender till smooth
5 add stock and season to taste. Re-blend if needed
6 serve hot topped with toasted or fried bread shapes topped with blended sandwich pickle spread on top
