Christmas Pudding Traditions! Stir up Sunday...

This is traditionally the day in which families gather to stir, and steam, the Christmas pudding. A little ahead of the game, we've already gathered as a family at LHC HQ around a very sticky table, to collectively execute a much treasured family recipe: our founder Steve's grandmother's pudding. It's not something we can imagine festivities without, so this year we're sharing the recipe with you. We can promise you, it's a keeper.

Honey & Berry Baked Cheescake Tarts

As beekeepers, it's no secret that a mug of well-placed tea has kept us going in some very early hours on a Yorkshire moor, or with a van full of hives on an interminable stretch of night road.

This Travels in Honey recipe includes two options in one; a curry and a potato-topped pie, and also finds a thread between a British classic and classic Sri Lankan flavours. Honey is the balancing factor here, a touch of unrefined sweetness which highlights the umami and savoury notes by virtue of being different. A delicious Spring recipe... lamb is in season and pairs so well with spices and sweet potato.

Travels in Honey: Slow cooked Chicken with Mango

Our Travels in Honey continues with Slow cooked Chicken with Mango. A recipe that operates on the same delicious premise say that lamb and apricots do, or sausages and apples, beef and quince. All of these are marriages of sweet and savoury brought together in a truly melting texture that binds the distinct flavours together.

Same for chicken and mango, here, the Ginger and Turmeric Honey not only helps render the juices particularly syrupy (just the kind to mop up with some bread) but draws out the rich amber hues of the dish.
