MaRobert’s Tanzanian sauces bring some spice to my kitchen

Slaine November 2, 2015 November 2, 2015
Three sauces, one traffic light system of heat

I have to confess that when I first received the three jars of MaRobert’s sauces, I wasn’t entirely sure what to do with them. The jar says they can be used as dipping sauces or to cook with, so I opted to try them as condiments/dipping sauces in order to…

I’m not sure whether I am typical, but when I’m out shopping I do seek out particular varieties. Take potatoes for instance, a Maris Piper is a great all rounder. I am also fond of Roosters. When it comes to spices and flavourings do I take as much care? There’s…

Zamorin, Linlithgow: high up on the hill there’s a restaurant

Caroline von Schmalensee December 10, 2011 April 21, 2017
Pork ularthu, one of the chef's signature dishes.

I lived in Linlithgow for three years in the mid-noughties. Since then one of its main hotels and pubs has burnt down which is really sad. My favourite restaurant has closed and a new, really good cafe/deli has opened.
