Chocolate Ganache Pie

This pie recipe tastes wickedly rich but is actually quite healthy, and contains no dairy or wheat so it's vegan and gluten free. The crust is made from dates and toasted hazelnuts, and the filling is simply chocolate and silken tofu with flavourings of your choice. Here it is served with a vanilla coconut cream. For the full recipe, see the recipe page of our website: http://hedgerowmedicine.com/?page=12


Chocolate ganache pie with hazelnut crust is quick and easy to make, but wickedly delicious!

Red Cabbage 'steaks'

Baked red cabbage 'Steaks'

We tried something new today - baked slices of red cabbage. Slice the cabbage horizontally into 1/2" thick slices, lightly brush with oil on both sides and place on a baking tray in a hot oven. Turn over after about 15 minutes, then cook for another five or ten minutes. The outer leaves may uncurl a little and go crisp - don't worry, they're possibly even tastier than the rest! We served the baked 'steaks' with a white sauce made with stock, tahini and dill and thickened with cornflour, alongside baked acorn squash and roast potatoes. It was delicious!
