Soup isn't just for winter. For me, every season is soup season. This creamy, vitamins-loaded, simple tomato red pepper soup, adapted from olive magazine, makes a great light lunch with some homemade bread on a warm day or anyday and will use up the glut of tomatoes from your garden or farmer markets too. If you don't have roasted bell pepper, then use the fresh one or roast some yourself.

A rich, buttery, moist mirabelle (or any fruit) cake, adapted from here and here, topped with a crisp caramel-almond Florentine-like topping, which was inspired by a popular German Bienenstich, is simply too good to miss in life - great for afternoon tea or morning coffee. I used mirabelles, but any other seasonal fruit would be fantastic too.

You can skip the process, but the ketchup has to be stored in the fridge for up to 6 weeks.

These blackberry loaded sourdough discard muffins with a combination of white and whole spelt flour are a great way to put excess starter to work. They are excellent for a mid-morning treat or a snack on the go or even as a dessert served with vanilla ice cream. Use fresh or frozen blackberries, or go foraging to find some in the summer months. The use of rye sourdough discard adds a very pleasant tangy flavour and moisture that helps these wholesome muffins stay moist and fresh for longer. I baked these muffins in a jumbo 6-cup muffin pan. If you want to use a standard-sized 12-cup muffin pan, adjust the baking time accordingly.

If you're using frozen octopus, it will need to thaw in the refrigerator overnight, so plan ahead. I cooked them in a grill pan, and they turned out great. Chargrill them if you could.

A pomace is the pulpy remains after fruit (or vegetable) has been crushed in order to extract its juice or oil. It contains skins, pulp, seeds and stems of the fruit. It's a cheap source of dietary fibers, antioxidants, pectin and other nutrients. Pomace can be turned into the distilled products, used to make animal feed, recycled as mulch, processed to make grapeseed oil and flour.
In this recipe I am incoperating blackberry and rosemary residues from making fruit curd into the sourdough bread. The add of pomace adds more freshness, fruitiness, depth and colour to the bread. Last but not least nothing is wasted. You can bake the bread into a batard, boule or a regular sandwich loaf. Although pomace is absolutely compostable and perfectly okay inside a composting bin, it's still better if it ends up on the plate.

A delicious late summer tart made with a melt-in-mouth buttery spelt-pepita crust, filled with a mildly nutty pepita frangipane cream and topped with a mixture of mirabelles and ederberries (or any fruit you have on hand).
Mirabelle is another delectable European heirloom plum. Small round yellow fruit with yellow red dots. They’re the smallest of the more than 2,000 plum varieties found worldwide, weighing only about 10 g each. The ripe mirabelle plums are delicately aromatic, juicy, sweet, low in calories and rich in vitamins. The mirabelle was probably named after plums grown in Southern France where they were cultivated under the name of mirabel, which means look (mira) and, of course beautiful. Mirabelle plums are very good for compote, jam or cakes and tarts.
Elderberry is dark purple fruit from the elderberry shrub. It's a rich source of antioxidants and vitamins. It has long been used in traditional medicine and appears to have some medicinal benefits. According to Webmd, elderberries could help tame inflammation, lessen stress, and help protect your heart, too. Some experts recommend elderberry to help prevent and ease cold and flu symptoms. Raw and unripe elderberries contain a poison called cyanide. So they should always be cooked before they're consumed.
