RE: Foraging foods: Nettle and Wild Garlic Cream soup

This looks fancy enough LOL. I bet it tastes delicious. Also, the presentation is really nice, the lavander gave the whole thing a special touch.

By the way, did you use orange juice for the ham? I'm trying to become better at marinating meat,as I'm not really good at this at the moment.

Sort:  

The lavender was just for the photo, but I agree, it set the tone right?

I used some orange juice in the glaze yes, seeded mustard, a little balsamic vinegar, plum jam and marmalade jam, brown sugar and some brandy also and a few other things. I was going to do a post on it but never got around to it before Christmas was past and it's not relevant now I guess.

Yep, definitely set the tone!
I love lavander anyways. I'm happy to have a lavander lemonade or a lavander tea. So I wouldnt mind see it on any piece of meat.

I guess its still relevant. The recipe. A good recipe remains a good recipe after all. But maybe you could share it in fall season, so we cam save it for Christmas? 😋
I usually use apricot jam for glazing. I dont really know why, I just do it.🙈

Apricot jam works. To be honest, I'd never done it before so I looked up a few glaze recipes and chose one I thought would work. It's not something I'd do other than at Christmas time so I'll worry about it again in several months.

I use to see 5 6 recipes and then I'll make my own based on what I've read and what I have at home. 😁

Sometimes making it up is a good way to go.
