Lemon mousse: it’s easy – gelatin isn’t scary
Does the thought of dealing with gelatine put you off making a mousse? Do you find it just goes lumpy or doesnt set? Just what is gelatine, this magical substance that sets foods to a satisfying wobble? It’s simply a water-soluble protein prepared from collagen (skin, bones and tendons of…
We’ve made Scotland’s first toast beer
Why toast beer? Recently Tesco announced how much of the food it sells goes to waste. The majority of it was bread. Even artisan bakeries have bread that’s not sold. So what can be done with it? When I was training in France, you can imagine how much bread we…
Castle Terrace – The perfect Edinburgh Lunch
My idea of heaven is a day off and a lovely long leisurely lunch. As it is summertime (whatever the weather outside), my advice is to book lunch at Castle Terrace Restaurant today. I love this restaurant for so many reasons. It is one I return to again and again. The…

A Borders Adventure: Micro pub and good food
I’m sitting late one Friday afternoon in a micropub. Until a few moments ago I had never heard of a micropub, let alone had been in one. This one, Rutherfords, in Kelso is the only one in Scotland. Scattered across the UK there are more than 230. A Micropub is…
Drinking and Dining Chez Mal
Tucked away off the Shore, the newly refurbished Chez Mal Bar and Brasserie are modern and inviting. Each has its own terrace for when the weather is a bit warmer, overlooking the water. It’s a blissfully quiet location. The building has an “interesting” history. The building was started in 1883…
