The Perfect BBQ Recipe!

Okay, so it is raining today (it is here anyway). I’m thinking about Barbecues anyway. Just because.

Ben (Good Oil’s resident chef, and son of founder Glynis) has given me this super recipe which is perfect for a quick and easy Barbie. Yum. All we need now is some sunshine….

A rather delicious (and easy peasey) recipe…

What’s the weather like where you are? Being British we are obsessed with it. To be fair, we’re having to keep a very close eye on it at the moment as we’ll be planting our hemp crop soon and we need to do it at precisely the right time – and temperature and general weather conditions have a big impact on that.

Right, so the weather – it is pretty dismal here today. Grey, rainy, chilly. It always does that, gives you some sunshine and then just as you start getting used to it, snatches it away. We’re all craving wintery food because, to be honest, it feels like winter all over again. I’m confident this recipe of Ben’s will cheer us up though. Super simple, delicious and suitable for dairy free diets, Vegans, Veggies and pretty much everyone else too. You don’t need to feel too guilty about it either as it will help you towards your recommended daily intake of Omega 3!

GOOD Fruit Crumble

Ingredients:

For the Crumble
35g flour
25g sugar
3 Tbsp of GOOD Oil

For the Fruit
4 pears, peeled and chopped
100g raspberries
50g sugar

Pre-heat the oven to 190C

Method:

Mix the fruit and sugar together in an oven dish. In another bowl mix the flour, sugar and GOOD OIL with your fingers until it resembles breadcrumbs. Put the flour mix over the fruit then place in the oven for 30 mins until golden brown.

Tell us why you love GOOD Oil and win a GOOD Hamper

We’re very lucky here at GOOD Oil because lots of people love what we make. They email us to tell us that they do, which always makes our day. I got a message the other day saying, “I found out only recently about what a wonderful plant hemp is.  I’ve been looking all over the place for hemp seed and hemp seed oil.  All I came across was little bottles of the oil in pills.  Ugh.  Now that I have found you and your products, I am feeling very happy.” It makes us happy to make other people happy!

We were inspired. We thought that we could make ourselves and our supporters happy at the same time by encouraging lovely people to tell us why they love GOOD OIL (which makes us happy) in order to win a hamper of GOOD Stuff (to make them happy).

So tell us! If you need some inspiration, here are a handful we particularly like:

“I just enjoy using it as it is a versatile oil. It smells and taste lovely with everything from sprinkling it onto salads to using it for normal cooking! It seems so much healthier than other oils as it has all the goodness inside! Wonderful Good Oil!”
“A corner of heaven found in Devon, from good rich soil comes pure Good Oil”
“It just tastes awesome in everything!!!! I can’t get enough of its nutty taste!”

Visit http://www.goodwebsite.co.uk/goodBuzz.php to tell us. Good luck!
