Precaution, planning, and preparation are the orde

A bounty of Bilberries picked yesterday here in the Surrey Hills 🧺.
. . .
Also known as the whortleberry, myrtle blueberry, whinberry, winberry, windberry or wimberry.
Whilst in the same family as the blueberry, it has a tarter taste, is smaller and more rounded. The blueberry is white inside; the bilberry is black on the outside and purple on the inside. Deep purple stains (as pictured!! ) are part and parcel of the experience 😉.
. . .
As with so many good things, picking is quite the time consuming task but so worth it - we’ll be turning these beauties into jams and syrup to feature into our menus 🌿.

Our mange tout frazzles were a firm favourite this

Our mange tout frazzles were a firm favourite this time last year, incredibly fresh and crisp skewered and charred over the hottest of coals, then brushed with cumin butter just before serving 🔥.

Throwback to last Summer’s Dine Between The Vine

Throwback to last Summer’s Dine Between The Vines at @alburyvineyard. Our work takes us to the most beautiful of settings, can you imagine a better view from the pass 🌱?
. . .
Unfortunately, due to the current situation we have had to postpone this years Vineyard feast - but we are keeping our fingers crossed we can reschedule for later in the year 🥂.

Whilst the pandemic presents challenges to us all

Whilst the pandemic presents challenges to us all all, it’s been wonderful to see so many small businesses of all sizes adapting quickly to change and redesigning their products and services where possible 👏🏼.
. . .
For example, whilst photographer @joeallenpreston has joined us (in the flesh!) in the woods before, Joe has been experimenting with a handful of our recipes in the comfort of his home, capturing images for us to use over the coming weeks (whilst conjuring up plenty of meals for him and his family to enjoy!) 🙂.
. . .
Pictured here is one of the beautiful images captured by Joe for us. Keep an eye out for the recipes which we’ll be sharing in the coming weeks 🔥.

Summer evenings down by the lakes, here on the Priory Farm estate. We set our tables and kitchen up lakeside for our Seafood Supper last July - with incredible ingredients from Sussex waters thanks to the team at @fishmongersfr 🐟.
. . .
Hard to imagine a better view from your kitchen! Delicious meals start with amazing foundations, thank you, Veaseys and Sons, for doing what you do 🦞.

Baking bread over fire doesn’t have to be diffic

Baking bread over fire doesn’t have to be difficult – flatbreads are super simple to make, quick to cook and taste delicious served straight from the pan. They’re made from two main ingredients – self raising flour and natural yogurt – and you can add whatever herbs and spices that tickle your fancy 🔥.
. . .
The perfect accompaniment to grilled meat or veg, they can be prepared on an open-fire, in a pizza oven or in a pan in your kitchen at home. We have found that they are also a really fun and easy recipe to get the kids involved 👨‍🍳.
. . .
Over the past few weeks, we have loved seeing photos from many of you who have made our flatbreads at home - thank you for sharing your creations 🙏🏼.

Half term can be a tricky time to keep your wildli

Half term can be a tricky time to keep your wildlings entertained at the best of times, let alone during a lockdown. With warmer weather, and school having been closed for a while already - we know this has by no means been a normal half term ☀️.
. . .
One of the many great things to come out of this period is the opportunity for families to engage and learn together, using the great outdoors as your classroom. We have really enjoyed hearing so many people trying new recipes and enjoying time in the kitchen 🔥.
. . .
Earlier this week we sent our family newsletter subscribers a few ideas to keep the whole family entertained this week and make the most of their off screen time. Together with our CEO Freddie (Child Executive Officer), we have a handful or wild recipes and outdoor activities for you to try at home up on our recipe page and blog 🌱.
. . .
Give any of the below activities a go at home and share your creations on Facebook or Instagram for the chance to win a t-shirt, tag us @thesaltboxuk 👌🏼.
. . .
Activities include 👇🏻.
Elderflower Cordial 🍹.
Pici Pasta 🍝.
Pine Cone Firestarters 🌲.
Flatbreads 🥖.
Make your own Char Cloth 🔥.

Head to our website to get started (link in Bio). T-shirt winner will he selected at random on Sunday evening 👕.

Hazel Leaf Dolmades 🔥. . . . Throwback to last

Hazel Leaf Dolmades 🔥.
. . .
Throwback to last summer's Tea in the Trees, when we baked these cocoa nib dolmades over the flames. Wrapped in young hazel leaves with a sweet biscuit filling, the leaves crisp up whilst the biscuit cooks creating a rather tasty morsel. So many campfire recipes involve using copious amounts of tin-foil, so it's great way of using nature’s larder without using up loads of foil! If you’re cooking over fire with your family this half term, be sure to give these a go 🔥.

We will be closed until July at the very earliest,

We will be closed until July at the very earliest, and won't be re-opening until it is absolutely safe to do so 🌲.
. . .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We are missing the power of physical presence, human connection and face-to-face conversation. But we know we need to sit tight a little longer....
. . . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As much as we would love to be able to feast with you all in the woods, we are not permitted to at the moment. Furthermore, once the restrictions are lifted, we just don’t feel it will be responsible to do so until we are absolutely sure it’s safe. We have a duty to protect not just our staff’s health and wellbeing, but all of our customers, producers and the wider community here on the Priory Farm Estate ❤️.
. . .
Your safety is our top priority 👍🏻.

How do you like your eggs in the morning 🍳?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. . .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We're fond of ours cooked beneath the trees and shared amongst old friends and new - preferably alongside a steaming cup of @surreyhillscoff Cottage Blend and a slice of buttery sourdough toast!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. . .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Whilst we may not be able to host our Breakfast in the Woods at the moment, we've got a special post-lockdown breakfast event up our sleeve. What's top of your list for that all-important meal of the day 🔥?

We curate, we cook, we talk, we teach.⠀⠀⠀⠀

We curate, we cook, we talk, we teach.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. . .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Through our range of cookery courses, we invite children and adults alike to come and cook with us in the woods in a relaxed atmosphere. We really can't wait to welcome you back to our outdoor kitchen later this year, when we'll be hosting our favourite open-fire cookery courses, alongside a handful of new ones! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
. . .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We're working on our Autumn course calendar, which we can't wait to share with you soon 🔥. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Pictured here: throwback to one of our corporate cookery days, making wild herb flatbreads for a woodland feast.
