MINCEMEAT



Mincemeat image

Mincemeat is a traditional English treat that is usually used as filling for mince pies during Christmas, but it tastes great mixed with vanilla ice cream, as well. This recipe uses butter instead of the traditional suet, which makes this mincemeat suitable for vegetarians. Store in the refrigerator for up to 6 weeks.

DIY ENGLISH MIXED SPICE



DIY English Mixed Spice image

One spice mixture that I always had difficulty finding and needed occasionally when cooking an English recipe that called for it was called Mixed Spice. The shipping cost of course was much more than the spice mix itself, so I thought I would find the mix for this and make it myself when needed. This recipe makes a great...

MIXED SPICE - TRADITIONAL OLD FASHIONED ENGLISH PUDDING SPICE



Mixed Spice - Traditional Old Fashioned English Pudding Spice image

The aromatic scent of holidays and Mum's home baking, mixed spice is an essential jar on the spice rack. Mixed spice is a blend of sweet spices traditionally used in English cooking to provide a warming backnote. This typically English spice mixture can be purchased ready-mixed, but I prefer to make my own, as I find it difficult to find in France and I have my own special blend. It is essential for fruit cakes, Christmas plum pudding, mincemeat and hot cross buns; mixed spice is also a great addition to other fruity desserts such as apple & fruit pies, crumbles and compotes. Try it in cream cheese desserts, pickles, chutneys and mulled wine too. Make it up and buy the spices needed in small quantities, as the mixture soon loses its full rich flavour. Allspice, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and ginger are the usual blend of spices, but I sometimes like to add a few ground cardamom seeds as well as some ground coriander seeds. This spice mixture makes an unusual and attractive gift - tie a ribbon around the neck of the jar, with pretty paper and then add a seasonal recipe tag.
