Parma Violets made with wild sweet violets! 💜
These little sweet treats are fun & easy to make with just two ingredients 🍬 You can even make them in the woods if you like! Combining the sweet violets with icing sugar makes them turn bright purple and adds the flower's natural floral scents and flavours to the sweets 🌺 These make a nice cheeky treat or you can pop them on cakes or use them instead of sugar cubes ☕

If you'd like to learn how to make Parma violets with real sweet violets you'll find our video tutorial in the comments section of this post ✌️🙂

It's begining to look a lot like Christmas so I made another double batch of festive Sproutchi!
We can't get enough of this, it's so moreish, and is a brilliant way of jazzing up Brussels Sprouts and adding a shed load of probiotics to your plate!
This is a delightful combination of finely shredded Brussels Sprouts, shallots, ginger, garlic, gochugaru, apples and sesame seeds, all fermented for around 7 days into a spicy flavour explosion!
Go as hot as you dare!!
Here is my recipe

500g Brussels Sprouts, finely shredded
2 shallots or 1 onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons sesame seeds, black or white
2 eating apples, cored
A thumb sized piece of ginger
4 to 6 cloves of garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons gochugaru chilli powder
2 teaspoons fine salt

Method

Add the Brussels Sprouts and shallots to a large bowl, sprinkle with the salt.
Add the apples, ginger, garlic and gochugaru powder to a blender and blitz to a paste.
Give the sprouts a bit of a massage to mix the salt through, then add the spicy paste and mix really well to coat all the veggies.
Add a couple of tablespoons of sesame seeds.
I use both black and white for more diversity points.
Give it another good mix and then pack it tightly, a handful at a time into a clean glass clip top jar.
Put a trimmed cabbage leaf, or a circle of baking paper or a wee opened zip lock bag on top and add a weight of some sort. A glass gu pot works well or fill the wee ziplock bag with baking pebbles or beans.
Clip the jar shut and leave at room temperature for 7 days.
Transfer to smaller glass jars and store in the fridge!
This improves with age and will keep for months but I doubt it will last that long!!

It also makes a great gift for a spicy foodie lover!
