Give this delicious dippy duck egg recipe from The Greenbank Hotel a go!

Duck Egg


Soft boil eggs for 5 minutes
Carefully remove cap of shell with a sharp knife, ready to serve

Asparagus spears(5 spears per portion for our starter) 


Preparing the asparagus: 
Break the stalk, it will naturally snap where the spear starts to get tender

Slightly peel the stalk end of the spear creating an even finish

When all other components are ready, place in boiling salted water for 2 minutes

When ready to serve, season well with cracked black pepper, sea salt and Cornish butter


Sunflower seed breadsticks


Ingredients:

  • 250g bread flour
  • 8g fresh yeast
  • Pinch of seasoning
  • 50g sunflower seeds
  • warm water to bind dough


Method: 

Rub yeast roughly into the flour, and add all other dry ingredients, mixing until all ingredients are combined

Slowly add tepid water until mix creates the dough - do not make too wet

Mix for 2/3 minutes until dough is springy

Remove and cut into 4 equal parts

Roll each part on a floured top creating a long thin pizza-like dough. Ideally width should be approximately the length of a pen

Cut into strips, again the size of a pen

Twist each piece and place on a baking tray that has been lightly oiled and sprinkled with sea salt

Bake for approximately 8 minutes at 180 degrees
