  • Recipe for Rich Fruit Cake
    Recipe for rich fruit cake This is the recipe I always use for Christmas cakes and when I need a fruit cake for a celebration or wedding cake. It is based on a Delia Smith recipe, but I have tweaked it! It is a very reliable cake, being both rich and moist. This recipe will produce an 8” square cake. Preheat oven to 140°C. Ingredients: 1lb (450g) currants 6oz (175g) sultanas 6oz (175g) raisins 2oz (50g) glacé cherries, chopped 2oz (50g) mixed peel, chopped 4 tablespoons brandy 6oz (175g) plain flour 2oz (50g) ground almonds ¼ tsp freshly grated nutmeg ½ tsp mixed spice 8oz (225g) unsalted butter 8oz (225g) soft dark brown sugar 4 large eggs 2oz (50g) flaked almonds, crushed into small pieces 1 dessert spoon black treacle Grated rind of 1 lemon Grated rind of 1 orange Juice of half an orange Method: 1. Place the dried fruit, mixed peel and cherries in a bowl and mix in the brandy. Cover the bowl and leave the fruit to soak at least over night; better still, leave it for several days for the fruit to become infused with the brandy. 2. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. 3. Lightly beat the eggs and add to the mixture, a little at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. If it starts to curdle, add a little flour. 4. When all has been added, fold in the flour, ground almond and spices. 5. Stir in the fruit and peel that has been soaking. 6. Add the nuts, treacle, and grated lemon and orange rind.

  • Baking Terms
    BAKING TERMS BAKING TERMS Know your fondant icing from your frosting, how to bake blind, beat, fold and cream? Certain words appear time and again in baking recipes but what do they actually mean? Check out our explanations Baking blind This is the process of partially or fully baking a pastry case in the oven without the filling. Line a tart tin with pastry, cover it with greaseproof paper and weigh it down with ceramic baking beans or dried chickpeas, beans or lentils. Baking blind is ideal if you have a no-cook filling, a filling that needs little cooking or is cooked at a low temperature. It ensures a crisp finish Beating This is the rigorous mixing of ingredients using a wooden spoon, electric whisk, food mixer or food processor. The purpose is to thoroughly combine ingredients and to incorporate air, making cakes light and fluffy. Creaming This is the term used in baking for beating sugar and softened butter together to form a lighter coloured mixture that is aerated. This is one of the ways to add lightness and volume to cakes. Curdling Curdling is when a food mixture separates into its component parts. A creamed cake mixture may curdle if the eggs are added too quickly or are too cold. It can be brought back by adding a tablespoon of flour. DustingDusting/Dredging This involves sprinkling sugar or spices over food as a decoration. A recipe may also ask you to ‘dust’ a work surface with flour or icing sugar to stop dough or fondant icing from sticking before kneading and rolling it out.
