I have always loved good honest food. Well let’s be
honest, I love any food even the devilish kind. People like Maggie Beer,
Nigella Lawson and Jamie Oliver are the unofficial faces of your country side
good honest food. They have easy recipes, working with ingredients that is in
season and easy to find. The food they serve is pack with flavor and has a
certain farm style feel to it but all is done with a drizzle of elegance.
Now with Easter coming up, and for me Easter is all
about the good and honest, it is important to keep your eyes out for those fresh but
ever elusive hot cross buns. These little buns of joy are delicious when hot
with butter and a cup of tea. The problem we have is for us to enjoy them hot
we need to heat them up at home after driving back from the bakery or grocer
and they seem to dry out sometimes… So this is the time, get practicing to make
your own hot cross buns and come Easter time you can serve the freshest hot
cross buns in town to all your friends and family.
I do not have a recipe for them so after a long search
for the best hot cross bun recipe ever, I found this recipe and it seems to be
easy and delicious. Nigella has put together a devilish hot cross bun recipe.
If you like you can omit the cardamom and cloves.
Hmmm might give those a shot. The recipe seems easy enough for even an amateur baker.
