Support Local Farmers At First Christmas Food And Farming Festival



     27 Nov 12
Make the most of extended opening hours at the Cotswold Farm Park

The North Cotswold Food and Farming Festival is pleased to announce their first Christmas Festival will be held on Sunday 2nd December. Following from the success of their spring and summer events, the team have decided to introduce a Christmas time event for those wishing to add local food to their festive menu.  Christmas themed cooking demonstrations with Rob Rees, The Cotswold Chef and local food producers will take place throughout the day.

The Festival will be held at Adam Henson's Cotswold Farm Park, who has recently announced they will remain open until Christmas so there will be plenty of activities for children too including face and pottery painting.  Stall holders will include local artisan food producers and craft and gift products sourced from the Cotswold area.  There will also be music throughout the day and at 3pm a live nativity.

Adam Henson, Director of the Cotswold Farm Park said: "We are very pleased to be hosting the first Christmas Food and Farming Festival. Over the past year we have found it is a great way to promote both farming and local food producers - many of whom are either diversified farmers or source their ingredients locally.  This event gives people from both near and far the opportunity to learn a bit more about the countryside and sample some of the great delights on offer."

Stall-holders include Love My Cow, Sophie's Baked Delights, Bensons Totally Fruity, The Cotswold Chocolate Company, Lower Lodge Bakery, Ross and Ross Food, Relish the Taste, The Cheltenham Cakery, Selsey Herb & Spice, The Cotswold Pudding Company, Crudges Cheese, Cotswold Gold, Chillis 2 U, Lovett Pies and The Cotswold Curer. Hot, cold and packaged food will be available to buy at the event.

The Festival will open at 10.30am and entrance is free. For further information, please visit www.cotswoldfarmpark.co.uk or email anna@lovemycow.com, follow the event on Twitter @CotsFoodFarming or Facebook www.facebook.com/TheCotswoldFoodAndFarmingFestival

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

Image
A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then
