Raeburn Cottage: Basic Baked Summery Salmon
http://raeburncottage.blogspot.com/2011/04/basic-baked-summery-salmon.html
Saturday, 2 April 2011. Basic Baked Summery Salmon. Long time no see. Thank you for waiting exactly 1 year for the salmon recipe! This is a real basic one but like i said it does accompany the salt n pepper squid lovely. A nice side serving of organic rocket tossed in olive oil,sea salt and cracked pepper is perfect for a light summer dish like this. Preheat oven to 200 degrees celsius(fan forced). Brush 1 teaspoon of olive oil onto a square piece of tin foil. Place salmon fillet in middle of foil square.

Raeburn Cottage: Blanquette(yes more bubbles!)
http://raeburncottage.blogspot.com/2011/05/blanquetteyes-more-bubbles.html
Friday, 13 May 2011. When on a gorgeous hen's weekend in and around Bordeaux,France I was let in on a secret by the hen herself that you can get a very light, tasty ,crisp sparkling wine called Blanquette from the south of France that strongly rivals some top champagnes. Sparkling wine that is just as good as champagne but cannot be called "champagne" as it is not from the "champagne region" which is in the north of France. If you are in the U.K I have had an exciting find I must share. Time for a Change.
