I make - Anzac Biscuits

Another brilliant recipe from Coeliac.UK. The more I use their recipes, the more convinced I am about the overall quality. The original recipe was given in weight measures but cup-based system works well here. It also makes substitution easier. This Anzac biscuits have a texture which reminds me of French macaron. Surprisingly light and very moreish. Next time I will roll it even thinner but still a good one nonetheless.

I make - Chocolate Peanut Butter Loaf

This is a fabulous loaf. The texture is light, soft and keeps remarkably well (unusual for a gluten free cake). There is no flour in this loaf, except in the form of cocoa powder. It's a bit similar to Nigella's Cocoa Tahini Loaf but I prefer this (finally no bananas) for its taste and simpler list of ingredients. And the taste is not dominated by peanuts, contrary to my initial worry. This will be on the routine list!

I make - Roast Brined Pork Shoulder

It's an Easter Weekend of Roast. My second time doing the brined roast pork. I am pleased with the Brine this time. Will use this ratio as the template for the future.
