A Glorious Glossary of Food

The second in our short series of summer holiday club posts…

Day 2: We had a food-themed day and it was another jam-packed session for the young writers (pun fully intended!).

Writer and author of Christmas at River Cottage Lucy Brazier joined us to talk food and ingredients, and what better way to start the morning off than with her homemade drop scones with honey, lemon, and sugar?

Lucy talked the children through tasting and describing our own carefully selected BODAN ingredients: Blueberries, Oats, Dark chocolate, All spice, and Natural yohgurt, for an acrostic-style glossary of ingredients.

After lunch we tasked the children with creating a Bonkers BODAN recipe in their journals, before making our own take on a classic Cranachan, using all the ingredients from the glossary. Stay tuned for a report from Day 3…
