Love Is In The Air At Leiths



Enjoy a gastronomic Valentine's day in the comfort of your own home with a little help from Leiths this year. Our specially designed Valentine's workshop dates have been confirmed, with two special one day
workshops to help you create an inspired celebration for your loved one. Ditching the over-packed restaurants in favour of a thoughtful home cooked supper has never been a better idea.

"Few things make someone feel as special as having delicious food cooked for them," says Leiths teacher and buyer Max Clark. "The time and effort invested in bringing seasonal ingredients together in simple, but impressive recipes will show just how much you love someone... far more than the largest bouquet of roses ever could."

With plenty of time to practice your new menu before the big day, join us at Leiths on Saturday the 26th January as Max Clark teaches guests how to entertain the other half with a show-stopping menu. Learn to make homemade buttermilk rolls to accompany a sophisticated three course menu featuring spiced quail,
champagne jellies and rose bud hearts; Max's menu promises to be a failsafe way to that special person's heart.

For less confident cooks, we invite you to join the Leiths chefs in the kitchen on Valentine's day itself. We have devised a special class to guide you through cooking a meal for two, which you will take home to enjoy with your dinner guest. Highlights on the menu include a slow roasted rack of lamb with fondant potatoes, light and airy meringues with passion fruit cream and indulgent chocolate truffles. Guided by the Leiths teachers, you will glean all the cooking tips and presentation ideas require, there is even a complimentary bottle of Prosecco included; so you just have to add the finishing touches at home, lay the table and pour the Prosecco.

At Leiths there are many courses for your food-loving Valentine so why not purchase a gift voucher and let them choose from the extensive array we have to offer. Leiths offers everything from effortless entertaining classes to knife skills workshops, food writing and of course, a range of tastings and demonstrations in our West London school.

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
