Today's Special: Salmon and Potato Salad with Apple & Onion

-
Pop along to you local fishmonger (we are so lucky in Dulwich to have two fabulous ones: F C Soper is just around the corner from me and I have been going there since I was a child, we are truly blessed to have such a great fish shop on our doorstep, and Moxons (who by the way make the best fish cakes ever)) and pick up some hot roast salmon.

If you are lucky enough to be going to F C Soper make sure you buy a jar of their delicious mayonnaise as you will need it for this recipe.

Salmon and Potato Salad with Apple & Onion

You will need:
  • Hot roast salmon
  • Some cooked new potatoes (just rub them under the tap before boiling as all the goodness is under the skin)
  • Some really good mayonnaise
  • A diced onion
  • A chopped apple
  • Some chopped cherry tomatoes if you happen to have them in the fridge
  • Some dill and / flat leaf parsley
Method:


  • Combine all of the above and enjoy.
You might want to remember this tip and rub some stainless steel over your fingers to remove all traces of odour after handling the salmon; chefs use their knives. Those of us who chose not to life life on the cutting edge might like to invest in one of Roullier White's handy, and very pleasing to the eye, Rubaway stainless steel soaps.

The Holy Trinity: Perfumes Made by Monks

The rarefied aura that surrounds fragrance dates back to the remotest times of antiquity, when incense and fragrant oils would be offered up to the gods and deities of the ancient world. The Arab world is credited with introducing modern perfumery to the West, having preserved the ancient arts of distillation, evaporation, and filtration that had been lost to Christian society, and in turn heralding great advancements not only in the field of fragrance but of chemistry and science too. In passing this tradition on, Christian monks began to adopt the practice of creating fragrances as an expression of faith, before eventually the art form became available to the wider public, for a price. Today, most perfume is manufactured on a grand commercial scale; a far cry from the artisanal monastic traditions that gave birth to modern fragrance! However, some perfume houses still survive from this bygone age and serve to remind us of our industry’s history while continui

Bâtard Folding Picnic Knife by Lamson & Goodnow

As author of The Best Bread Ever; Charles Van Over is expected to show everywhere up with an armful of bread. Whilst Charles enjoys breaking bread with friends; he does insist that the bread is properly sliced with a breadknife, not just ripped apart. The problem here is that bread knives are very long and with their serrated edges they are not the easiest of things to carry around. Charles wondered why a folding bread knife could not be produced and took his idea for a pocket bread knife to Lamson & Goodnow, American manufacturers of the LamsonSharp range. The Bâtard Folding Picnic knife is the result of this collaboration. At Roullier White we believe this may possibly be the best picnic knife ever made. The French word bâtard – and yes it does translate how you think it does – is a shorter and thicker type of baguette. The knife, of course, will cut everything including cheese, fruit, vegetables and as you cannot have a picnic without wine it also has an integral corkscrew. Rou
