Jewish New Year – It’s Always About the Food

This is Nana's Date and Nut Loaf.⁠
Jacqui's Nana, to be precise.⁠
⁠
So simple.⁠
So good.⁠
⁠
Recipe can be found in our third book, It's Always About the Food, on p. 278.⁠
⁠
We tried Jaks' nana's nut loaf for the first time at our working retreat for this book, back in early 2016. We spent four days locked away from all distraction, madly finishing the testing of recipes and sorting of chapters. A lot of heated debates were had, and one afternoon's tension was relieved when we all sat down with a good, strong cuppa and a thickly buttered slice of nut loaf. Disagreements were resolved, frustrations were calmed and all was good in the MMCC house.⁠
⁠
Check out the video on our IGTV and you will see how simple it really is.⁠

Last one, we promise.⁠
Mini-bundt butter cake with blood orange icing.⁠
⁠
We had a very funny hour - and at times hectic - baking butter cakes in different shapes and sizes with different frostings and icings.⁠
⁠
The recipe for this outstanding Basic Butter Cake can be found in our new book Now for Something Sweet on page 43.⁠ (With thanks to Merrylin Goodman.)⁠

Our next Zoom event is on Monday 20 July at 11 am and we would love you to cook along with us to make a fabulous-for-winter Lamb and Date Tagine.⁠
