Hello Anke, thanks so much for getting in touch. I don't have any planned at the moment, but if you sign up to my newsletter - https://annajonesfood.substack... - I tend to share things on there first. I am heading to Ballymaloe food festival this year in Ireland and perhaps a couple more events which are yet to be confirmed.
Thanks for reaching out. This isn't one I tend to freeze, but if I were I would freeze the mix. I would probably defrost on the morning I wanted to cook it and then assemble and bake to serve. Let us know how you get on
Hello Alexandra. Thanks so much for your question. Indian and Asian markets are often good places to find them cheaply, though don’t be tricked into buying massive bags, as they will spoil in a few months and lose their flavour. I have listed some of my favourites here. I store them all in little glass jars so I can easily see what I have. I also like Diaspora co, and for herbs Daphne and Chloe is hard to beat.
That's so kind - thank you so much for taking the time to let me know.
Hello Shani, thanks so much for writing. So happy to hear you like that recipe - a favourite in our house too. It's in 'A Modern Cook's Year.' Hope that helps - AJ
