Seeded dillisk loaf

INGREDIENTS

DIRECTIONS

1
Preheat the oven to 210ºC fan/gas 8 and butter a 20cm round baking tin.
2
Finely chop the dillisk. Mix this with the flour, seeds, bicarbonate of soda and salt in a large bowl.
3
In a large jug, whisk the buttermilk, eggs and rapeseed oil together and pour into the dry ingredients. Using your hand as a claw, stir the mixture in a circular motion until it is well combined.
4
Pour into the prepared tin and bake in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes. Remove from the tin and pat the bottom – it should sound hollow when it’s ready. Cool fully on a wire rack.

The combination of seeds, buttermilk and salty dillisk seaweed makes for an unusual bread, both in flavour and appearance. The veins of purple that run through the bread look quite striking, and it’s really delicious and earthy. One of our favourite breads to make and eat.

Flourless dark chocolate and sea salt cake
Serves 1

This is an incredibly rich, salty-sweet chocolate cake that’s perfect for dessert. The egg whites provide just enough rise and lightness. The darkness of the chocolate is up to you. We’ve gone for 70 per cent here, as any higher will make your cake a little bitter. The combination of rich dark chocolate and salt […]

Macroom oatmeal with milk and salt
Serves 1

It’s wonderful on its own with a pinch of salt or with some fruit and honey. Use whatever fruit is good, ripe and in season. In winter, homemade jam is a perfect addition to porridge.
