Comment on The Perfect Potato Salad by Mister North

Oh no, our secret’s out! That’s kyboshed me being invited to bring the potato salad to parties now the recipe’s out in the wild

This is truly a taste of home as far as I’m concerned, and it goes down a treat with everyone I know who gets the chance to enjoy a sample. And yes, there is *never* enough!

Incidentally, as with my champ these days, I like to use a mixture of chives from the garden and scallions (spring onions). Partly for more breadth of flavour, and partly also it looks pretty, having two different sizes of chopped alliums (allia?) scattered through the dish…

I love your writing and ideas, but I don’t have a sweet tooth and I am waiting for something simple and fresh and/or veggie. I have bought a slow cooker and make all sorts in it. It is seriously convenient and feels like someone is cooking for me )
Could you do some of your fave slow cook recipes onetime?

I’m going to try this at the weekend, I hope it comes close to the taste of home! I’ve got potato bread, and fish shop battered cod perfected, now to perfect a pastie

Well I’m now enlightened on what a Paris bun is! Who needs 7 layers when something tasty and simple is all that’s needed?

Love Paris Buns split and spread with butter. I’m an ex pat living in Canada and wondering if you have a recipe or any idea how to make coconut snowballs? Loved those with a cup of tea. Love your blog!

Rachael: They do sound much fancier than they are, but I love all those slightly plain Norn Iron treats like Marie biscuits so these were a welcome revival. They are very good with a glass of milk I discovered for breakfast this morning!
