Weekend Herb Blogging #328 - Recap


Whether you celebrated Easter or Passover or just indulged in a little too much chocolate, I hope you've all had a wonderful time.

In all the recaps I've done, I seem to notice that there is always some type of connecting theme running through it - in this edition, you could say that it's regular ingredients finding an unusual purpose or maybe unusual ingredients finding an everyday purpose. Whichever it is, the end result is delicious.

Pan di Spagna

Pan di Spagna may literally be translated as "bread of Spain" but between you and I, you can just call it a sponge cake.

It's a pretty simple recipe - eggs, sugar and flour - to which you might add flavourings such as vanilla, lemon & orange zest or cocoa powder if you'd like to make a chocolate pan di spagna.

When it comes to flour, my mother likes to use a mix of plain and potato flour but I've decided to make one using all potato flour - which means this pan di spagna is gluten free.
