What a lovely invitation I received – to attend The Ivy Club in London on behalf of Nairn’s Oatcakes for a Cocktails & Canapés evening. Too exciting to turn down and already a fan of Nairn’s Oatcakes, I just had to say yes!
Product Review – Vimto Squeezy
We all know that we should drink between 6 and 8 glasses of water a day, don’t we? Well, what we don’t always know is that this doesn’t have to be plain water; it actually refers to the amount of fluids that our bodies need to stay hydrated. These can be obtained from our morning cup of tea or coffee, to the drink we have with our lunch and dinner. It’s not always as easy to keep up your hydration when you’re on the go, especially if you fancy something a little more tasty than plain water, a fizzy drink from a can or a coffee shop coffee, or indeed if you’re a little fussy like me and don’t like purchased still drinks as they’re far too sweet for my palate.
Seize the Flavour with Knorr Flavour Pots
Knorr have a new addition to their range of Stock Pots and Gravy Pots. They now have Flavour Pots too. I was lucky enough to have been invited to a Chef’s Tasting Table at the Ice Tank in Covent Garden, London where we were introduced to one of the development chefs, Cameron Healy, as well as Professor Barry C Smith, an expert in flavour perception from the Centre for the Study of Senses, who worked alongside Knorr and Cameron to develop the right balance of flavours that these little pots manage to pack inside.
