JACK STEIN’S RECIPES<br />

I had my first English<br />

raspberry this week, <strong>and</strong> my<br />

word, it was beyond delicious<br />

- perfectly sweet, it was a<br />

very good advert for eating<br />

seasonally. I’ve tried to echo<br />

this in all my recent fruit <strong>and</strong><br />

vegetable purchases, <strong>and</strong> it’s<br />

had a transformative effect on<br />

my cooking - everything just<br />

tastes better - more vibrant,<br />

needing less seasoning <strong>and</strong><br />

just overall very tasty.<br />

COMPETITIONS<br />

I’m making the most of<br />

cooking whilst I still have a<br />

kitchen - mine is due to be<br />

ripped out in two weeks <strong>and</strong><br />

it will be camping stove <strong>and</strong><br />

air frying for two months from<br />

there! I’ve already picked my<br />

kitchen, but it got me thinking<br />

about all the other areas that<br />

need updating in my home. If<br />

you are thinking of a similar<br />

refresh, please check out our<br />

home pages this edition -<br />

they’re full of inspiring trends<br />

<strong>and</strong> a few timeless classics.<br />

We’ve also got some lovely<br />

editorial on welcoming<br />

pollinators into the garden<br />

- as well as being essential<br />

for your own garden’s health,<br />

being pollinator friendly<br />

can really improve the local<br />

environment too.<br />

The competition guide this<br />

issue is a belter, with goodies<br />

to be won in the home,<br />

garden <strong>and</strong> some gorgeous<br />

skincare. This, plus a lot more<br />

makes it well worth a look<br />

<strong>and</strong> an enter!<br />

We will be back again in<br />

September - I’ll be fully<br />

rebooted <strong>and</strong> recharged into<br />

‘Back to School’ mode. See<br />

you then!<br />
