My Herbalist introduced me to the delights of the Damiana herb, it's a calming aphrodisiac, absolutely delicious when prepared with chamomile, fresh lavender flowers, honey & hot water. Take a stroll to your nearest herbalist discuss the benefits & take some home, for further info click here.
Also I made possibly one of the finest desserts ever on the weekend, here is the recipe along with some audio treats, have a wonderful week xx
Figs PX
Melt a small amount of organic butter in a pan along with a healthy dram of Pedro Ximenez Sherry, a table spoon of honey (Tanzanian Leatherwood is ideal), a splash of orange blossom water, a zest of 1/2 an orange cut into fine strips and a dash of fresh lemon juice.
On a roasting tray place some (6) figs, make two incisions diagonally into the tops of the fig & push gently to open. Inside the fig place broken freshly cracked walnut pieces & drizzle the mixture from the pan over the top, place in a pre heated oven gas mark 6, for 15 mins. Remove turn oven off, baste figs in juices on tray, add a sprig of fresh thyme on each fig & return to oven for 10mins.
Remove & serve with drizzled juices & small amount of mascarpone, delicious.
