If you’d like to do an In My Kitchen post on your own blog, please feel free to do so! You’re most welcome to use the same format as I do, and to leave a comment on my monthly IMK post linking back to your blog. I’d love to see what’s happening in your kitchen every month!

In my kitchen…
…is a copy of Zen and the Art of Raising Chickens, a gift from my lovely friend Becca, the InTolerant Chef…
In my kitchen…
…is a bag of dark malt flour, a recent discovery from Harkola. I used a teaspoon in yesterday’s sourdough – it gave the white bakers’ flour a creamy grey tone and added a delicious nuttiness to the finished loaf…
In my kitchen…
…are cornmeal English muffins, made to a modified Dan Lepard recipe. On Joanna’s advice, I reduced the water in the recipe from 425ml to 300ml. The slightly drier dough cut well and held its shape in the frying pan…
We ate them with Joy’s delicious plum jam…
…which she made with plums harvested from her dad’s farm…
In my kitchen…
…are treasures from Chefs’ Warehouse. These 10cm/4″ crumpet rings were calling to me…
…as were these absolutely gorgeous terracotta dishes. I already had the larger version, and wanted a couple of smaller ones to complete the set. The little one measures 15cm/6″ in diameter and cost just $5.95. The dishes are oven safe and clean up perfectly in the dishwasher…
In my kitchen…
…are pots of green apples, being turned into pectin for this year’s jam making. The apples are from Christina’s dad Lloyd, who was kind enough to give us enough for dozens of jars of pectin, along with several kilos of gorgeous crabapples for jelly!
In my kitchen…
…is a tin of Turkish apple tea. I’ve been drinking this sweet tangy tea at Turkish restaurants over the past few months, and couldn’t resist buying some for home…
In my kitchen…
…is a basket of green figs from our new neighbour Marco, whose trees are laden and groaning with fruit!
Tell me, what’s happening in your kitchen this month?
