Quinces are sort of cousins to apples and pears, but they're an entirely different fruit altogether. They can’t be eaten fresh. To enjoy quinces, they must be cooked until completely soft and falling apart. When fresh, they’re hard as a rock, bitter and astringent. Once cooked, the cream coloured flesh will turn pink with a floral flavour.
The ingredients for this quince jelly are quite simple, and all you really need are quince, water and sugar. But a little bit of star anise, cinnamon, or ginger brings a warmth and extra dimension to the aroma of the fruit. Quince is very high in pectin, so lemon is not required for making the jelly. However, fresh lemon juice will heighten flavour of the fruit. You do not need to peel your quince before cooking it to make jelly. Nor do you need to core it. Just scrub off the furry coating and wash them clean before using.
Serve quince jelly as part of a cheeseboard, or alongside pork or game dishes, or with some homemade bread or crackers.

This refreshing and crunchy carpaccio variation with kohlrabi and apples scores points thanks to its fresh ingredients and a nutty, earthy Styrian pumpkin seed oil vinaigrette. Toasted pepitas and parsley make great toppings. Easy and delicious!
Since pumpkin seed oil is rather thick, you can use 1-2 tablespoons water or broth to dilute the dressing. You can also make this into a simple salad by cutting kohlrabi and apple into sticks, which then tossed with the dressing.

This foolproof hearty quickbread is studded with rich, chewy figs and crunchy, earthy walnuts and lightly sweetened with erythritol, best served warm with some whipped ricotta, nut butter or honey. You can sub in olive oil, coconut oil, or butter for the walnut oil. I used white spelt flour, but a combination of whole and white flour would work lovely too. Perfect for breakfast or an afternoon treat.

A rustic, freeform pastry made with spelt flour, filled with caramelised red onions, fresh figs, combined with goat cheese and refined with fresh rosemary. For the pastry, I used spelt flour, which goes particularly well with figs thanks to its nutty flavour. However, you can just as easily use regular wheat flour.
Whether as a starter, main course or party snack, the fig spelt galette is sure to be a real eye-catcher on any table. If time is tight, you can of course use ready-made dough from the supermarket for your galette.

Ripe, aromatic cantaloupe and heirloom cherry tomatoes are a perfect combination for this fresh, juicy and healthy salad, and it’s quick to put together too. Balling the cantaloup creates a more fun dish, but cutting them into bite-size chunks tastes just as delicious. Totally your choice. You could add more punch to this simple salad by adding some homemade croutons or feta or serve it with your favourite protein for a complete meal.
