We’ve just finished watching the final of River Cottage Autumn Series. I was balancing the accounts for the week, freezing stewed feijoas and packaging puff pastry apple ‘turnovers’ ready for lunch over the next few days while watching TV. We don’t have a garden at the moment as our land is still a building site so it’s nice to live vicariously through enthusiastic Hugh. River Cottage, promoting small holdings, was in huge contrast to the Sunday programme on Channel 1 earlier in the evening regarding the farming practises of pigs in sow crates in NZ Mike King tackles pig welfare after seeing “despairing” pigs | NATIONAL.
I love watching Hugh cook his recipes even if I’ll never have access to many of his ingredients. His recipes can be accessed from http://www.rivercottage.net/SeasonalRecipes/.
