<br />
<br />
By 28th April, 2016 as a group we cooked our way through the entire <b>River Cottage Everyday Veg </b>by <b>Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.</b><br />
<br />
On 28th February, 2017, we will continue our cooking adventure together - with two books from the same author. One is called <b>River Cottage Every Day</b> and the other one is called <b>Love Your Leftovers </b>(this one is optional).<br />
<br />
The rules will basically be non-rules: you can chose the recipes yourself, <b>1 to 10</b> <b>recipes</b>, <b>only 1 post per month</b> from <b>River Cottage Every Day </b>and then if you have the time and, of course, those lovely leftovers, you can choose to add (or not) as many or as little of the recipes from <b>Love Your Leftovers</b> to your personal "end of month post"! Just make sure to use whatever is <b>in season</b> wherever you live and try to use as many<b> regional </b>ingredients as possible.<br />
<br />
We will be posting for <b>6 months </b>- whether all the recipe have been completed from the book(s) or not and therefore our last post for this book (these books) will be on <b>July 28th, 2017.</b><br />
<br />
Any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me: <b>andrea(at)thekitchenlioness.de</b><br />
<br />
You can now leave your link to your personal February post<b> at the end of this post</b> AND at any time on <b>The Cottage Cooking Club facebook page</b>!!!<br />

We will be cooking from <b>River Cottage Every Day - "RCED" </b>(for all) and <b>River Cottage Love Your Leftovers - "RCLYL" </b>(optional).<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-shXh2VntSHk/WHoYAQ6zwaI/AAAAAAAAQqI/9BbZOodBI840MxoeTtycMk7m-kq_1-8JACLcB/s1600/6-river%2Bevery.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-shXh2VntSHk/WHoYAQ6zwaI/AAAAAAAAQqI/9BbZOodBI840MxoeTtycMk7m-kq_1-8JACLcB/s1600/6-river%2Bevery.JPG" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
The rules for the cooking club will be easy and rather more like "<b>non-rules</b>". We will cook as many of the recipes from the book as we will manage during a<b> six-month period</b> - so no matter whether we have cooked all recipes from the book or just a fraction, we will <b>conclude</b> our activities at the end of end of <b>July 2017</b>.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qNpacbyqO0s/WHoX9Me8DsI/AAAAAAAAQp8/CDZQIuUSt0AEmdC1HWY9UPGiV_rKm6-6ACEw/s1600/1-DSC_0063.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="425" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qNpacbyqO0s/WHoX9Me8DsI/AAAAAAAAQp8/CDZQIuUSt0AEmdC1HWY9UPGiV_rKm6-6ACEw/s640/1-DSC_0063.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
While the official starting day will be <b>February 1st</b>, all<b> regular</b> or <b>occasional "guest" members</b> (if I may call them that way) will only be asked to post <b>once a month</b> (six times in total) on the <b>28th of each month</b>. The Cottage Coooking Club therefore will only have <b>six posting dates</b> Feb. 28th, March 28th, April 28th, May 28th, June 28th until <b>July 28th</b> when we will <b>conclude our activities</b>.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The recipes will not be chosen by me, <b>you choose as many OR as little as you want each month</b>, make one soup or ten dinners or three desserts, whatever you can. Then put together <b>one post</b> at the <b>end of the month</b> and let all of us know what you think of the dishes that you prepared. Are they worth trying? Does the recipe work? What would you change?<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
When chosing the recipes that you prepare each month, I ask you to let yourself be guided by <b>seasonality</b> and <b>availability</b> - what are the foods that YOU can find in YOUR area?<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pqppZXi5HBs/WHoYAuYEKzI/AAAAAAAAQqM/k9_4IF8E5Ko4MmRZ9CIMKj6jGs6j2J_QQCEw/s1600/4-DSC_0100.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pqppZXi5HBs/WHoYAuYEKzI/AAAAAAAAQqM/k9_4IF8E5Ko4MmRZ9CIMKj6jGs6j2J_QQCEw/s640/4-DSC_0100.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
To get started and to get a feeling for the RCED cookbook, I made two recipes - the "<b>Beet and Cumin Soup with Spiced Yogur</b>t" (page 274) and the "<b>Honey Whole-Wheat Cake</b>" (page 386).<br />
<br />
While I will not go on a length about those two recipes, I will say so much. They both definitely taste like <b>true River Cottage recipes</b> - the flavors are familiar and comforting and we enjoyed both.<br />
<br />
If you like <b>beets</b>, you should try the soup while beets are now widely available and reasonably prized in winter (at least around here). The <b>Spiced Yogurt</b> is a wonderful element of the soup but you should not limit its uses to this soup, drizzle it on rôtisserie chicken or serve with pita bread and veggies.<br />
<br />
The <b>cake</b> is a must if you are looking for a comfort-style cake with the definite taste of <b>honey</b>. Make sure to use a<b> mild variety</b> of local honey (if possible) that you enjoy, or it will overpower the cake. It is worth noticing that the recipe calls for <b>whole-wheat flour</b> and <b>ground almonds</b> (I left the skins on) and according to my experience if you want a more pronounced taste of almonds, you could toast them before you process them to make your own almond meal. You can also make this recipe with <b>spelt flour</b> and 2 teaspoons of baking powder as well - I tried it and it works. What I really liked was<b> serving this cake warm</b>, with some Greek yogurt and fruit (whatever is in season) alongside. You can re-heat a slice and enjoy it as <b>breakfast cake</b> (very fashionable these days) as well. The almonds keep it moist for a day or two.<br />
<br />
I sincerely hope that I have managed to inspire you to cook along with me for the next <b>six months</b>. It is lonely cooking through all these cookbooks on my own...and I would LOVE to have some lovely company! So, dust off the covers of your <b>RCED</b> and perhaps the <b>RCLYL</b> and let´s start cooking as many of Hugh´s dishes from them as we can fit into our lives and share with the ones we love.<br />

<br />
<br />
Sharpen your knives and make room on your kitchen shelves because we will be resuming our online <b>#TheCottageCookingClub</b> activities on<b> February 1st</b> with the cookbook that I have mentioned before and another one optional as well. But I am re-working the "rules" and will loosen them considerably. Cooking in on online cooking group should be fun not stress.<br />
<br />
So from<b> Februay 1st, until the end of July</b> we will be happily cooking our way through "<b>River Cottage Every Day</b>" - more details coming up!<br />
<br />
Hope to see ALL of you here soon!!!<br />

Due to the unexpected surge in the number of bloggers who have expressed their interest in cooking along with us and tackle <b>our second phase</b> of our cooking adventures with recipes from the talented <b>Mr. Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall</b>. And after consulting with my trusted taste testers and food enthusiasts that have tasted their way through many a dish in the last couple of years, for the time being, I have decided <b>to suspend the activities</b> of our lovely online cooking club with that catchy name and <b>re-connect in a few weeks time</b>!</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Until we meet again with a fresh outlook on things, a new perspective on the purpose of online cookbook clubs and a bit of time to spare…</div>

<br />
As some of you probably know, last year I joined The Food Revolution Community Ambassador Program, an initiative of the Jamie Oliver Foundation.<br />
<br />
The Food Revolution is „an ongoing, global campaign to provoke debate and inspire positive, meaningful change in the way we access, consume and understand food. Meaningful change is built from the ground up. We celebrate the joy of food, we educate people and communities to make better food choices and we inspire them to come together as one voice to lobby governments and businesses to make positive, lasting change.“<br />
<br />
Every May, we hold Food Revolution Day and this year it falls on<b> May 20th, 2016</b>.<br />
<br />
I thought it would be a wonderful idea to get you all involved. The line-up of recipes that Jamie Oliver has put together revolves around ten delicious, nutritionally balanced recipes, which he has have defined as the “<b>Starter Pack of Cooking</b>”, each covering a different <b>skill and technique</b> that can give anyone the confidence to cook good, real, healthy meals for themselves and their families, for now and the future. Jamie´s recipes include a Simple Humous, Minestrone, Classic Tomato Spaghetti Sauce, Cheese Omelette etc. Tacking a cue from this wonderful idea, I suggest the following:<br />
<br />
We shall get started with our new cookbook project in July – this month we will Join the Food Revolution and I ask you to choose from<b> one (1) to ten (10) recipes from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstalls`River Cottage Everyday Veg</b> that you believe is a <b>„must-know“ recipe</b> from the book. Cook as little or as many recipe(s) from Hugh's book and share the technique and cooking skill you learned from making it (them). Then just leave your link from <b>May 20th until the end oft he month right here.</b><br />
<br />
Our Motto for the month of May is: <b>JOIN THE FOOD REVOLUTION!</b> And share your wisdom, skills and techniques with all of us!<br />
<br />

My dear fellow members of <b>The Cottage Cooking Club</b>:<br />
<br />
Now we are at the beginning of <b>April</b> and therefore into our <b>twenty-fourth and last month</b> of preparing recipes from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall´s “<b>River Cottage Everyday Veg</b>”.<br />
<br />
PLEASE feel free to substitute or add local vegetables to the recipes as it is always best to cook with what you can find at your local farmers´markets and greengrocers.<br />
<br />
But there is no reason to pull out those <b>handkerchiefs</b> (<b>Taschentücher</b>) quite yet. Because although we have reached the last ten recipes of "<b>River Cottage Everyday Veg</b>"<b> </b>and have cooked <b>two full years</b> together as a group, we shall continue cooking together in <b>The Cottage Cooking Club</b> with <b>two </b>more books. Starting in <b>May</b>, we will start to cook from "<b>River Cottage Every Day</b>" as well as "<b>River Cottage Love Your Leftovers: Recipes for the Resourceful Cook</b>" (this one is optional).<br />
<br />

Dear fellow members of <b>The Cottage Cooking Club</b> and all those bloggers that would love to join us:<br />
<br />
as mentioned last year, as a group we will have cooked our way through the entire<b> River Cottage Everyday Veg</b> by <b>28th April, 2016</b>. Quite the achievement!<br />
<br />
On <b>1st May, 2016</b>, we will continue our cooking adventure together - with two books from the same author. One is called "<b><i>River Cottage Every Day</i></b>" and the other one is called "<b><i>Love Your Leftovers</i></b>".<br />
<br />
The rules will basically remain the same (you can consult the <b><a href="http://cottage-cooking-club.blogspot.de/p/rules.html">rules</a></b> here), <b>ten</b> recipes to choose from, <b>one</b> post a month from "<b><i>River Cottage Every Day</i></b>" and then if you have the time and, of course, those lovely leftovers, you can choose<b> to add (or not) as many or as little</b> of the recipes from "<i><b>Love Your Leftovers</b></i>" to your personal "end of month post"!<br />
<br />
Now that we are at the beginning of the new year, you might consider getting those two books (or just one of them) and <b>continue</b> cooking with us or join as a<b> new member</b>! Or even as a<b> guest blogger</b>, a category that we created a long time ago!<br />
<br />
Any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me: andrea(at)thekitchenlioness.de<br />
