Somerset Cider & Cheese Festival 2014 (20-22nd June)



Take 30 of Somerset's finest cheeses, add bottles and kegs of the county's top cider tipples before mixing-in live music from local bands. To finish, add a dollop of local produce, a dash of hearty food and a of farmers market to boot!

In among all this lovely indulgence will be some Welly Wanging, Cheese Shy & tombola plus a spot of Cider Pong...just for a little extra Somerset inspired entertainment.

It's no wonder people travel hundreds of miles (no...really they do) to enjoy this event, now in its 3rd year. Last year Radio 2 liked the sound of it so much that organiser Greg Parsons was Chris Evans' mystery guest.

In 2014 we've added a day so revellers can sign up for the Big Weekender (limited tickets), which will give them access to the Cheese & Cider Express - an exclusive cheese & cider tasting aboard the West Somerset Steam Railway before it ambles through Somerset's stunning landscapes. The Cider & Cheese Tractor safari should be a hit too!

If you didn't get any Glastonbury tickets then this is surely some sort of consolation!?

If you're a journalist and think this is commission-worthy, please do get in touch with Lex (07795564211). He'll sort passes and info, as well as create a bespoke itinerary for you if you'd like to visit some of the PDO Cheddar makers or Artisan cheese producers and cider producers in addition to the festival.

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
