Sheen Suppers – December dates

At last, I have found the time to sort out some more Sheen Suppers dates. Not confirmed yet but looking like a couple of evenings in early to mid December. More news soon.

Update

Sorry kids, still rather too much day job to be doing Sheen Suppers too regularly. I will, however, try and sort some dates out soon – do watch this space.

At last, new dates….

We are now open for reservations for Sheen Suppers on 20th and 21st May….email sheensuppers@googlemail.com to book!

A selection of past menus….

I have been asked about menus from Sheen Suppers nights – so I’ve added a few which you can see here:

(I can’t remember how to do the nice, shortlink thingy – sorry!)

Tomato & Orange Ice Cream

We served this ice cream with a chilled tomato soup at the 4th and 5th June Sheen Suppers. It was inspired by a dish served at the restaurant at The Petersham Hotel last Summer – my lovely friend Nik ordered it and kindly shared! Perfect for the weather at that time and early June this year…..

Makes 1 litre

Cook 1kg of good, ripe tomatoes (chopped up and including skins and pips) over a very low heat along with a good grind of salt and pepper for around 30 minutes or until soft and very pulpy.

Cool a little and push through a sieve, discarding the pips and skins etc. Once completely cool, stir in a pint of whipping cream and add some very finely grated orange zest plus the juice of up to 2 oranges – gradually though, tasting as you go. Churn in an ice-cream maker according to instructions.

We served it with a simple chilled and slightly creamy tomato soup, poured around the ice-cream at the table – just as they do at The Petersham.

Sheen Suppers – September Date

We will re-open after a long (hard-earned) Summer break – the first date available is 24th September. Please email sheensuppers@googlemail.com to reserve a table!

The dripping potato cake is back by popular demand and I am also making the most of a recent jam session – the Bakewell Tart will be made using the Rhubarb & Pink Grapefruit Jam made last weekend. Thanks to Verity Whittaker (@VerityW) for the jam recipe suggestion – it’s delicious!
