Never a leftover, leftover
Your leftover inspiration
Blood orange & lemon jellies
Home made gelatine jellies Using up leftover gelatine wasn’t the easiest of challenges. I wasn’t about to start investigating the heritage of American jelly salads, though I’m sure they’re dear to people’s hearts. Our gelatine recipe choices are sweet, fun – and...
Fruity jelly
Leftover gelatine jelly A few weeks back, the most wonderful Laura Reduction Rader messaged me and asked if I’d like to take ownership of a packet of leaf gelatine from a recent Olio stash that she had. As a vegan, that was one leftover Laura couldn't shift and lucky...
Candied Lemon Peel
Leftover lemon heart vinegar I started obsessing about food waste when my kids were little and I was determined to give them as much organic produce as possible. Not everyone’s priority or privilege. I got by on spending around £60 a week on food and honestly, I was...

Lemon Zest Sugar
Leftover lemon zest sugar Lemon and sugar are, to my mind, the best pancake day filling. Sweet and sour, everyone can add more lemon or sugar to their taste. Simple. Minimum effort required by the cook. But what about the leftover lemon zest and juice-less fruit? What...
Dosas, for every little leftover curry
Dosas, a love story Tomorrow is a big day for StorrCupboard: the first StorrCupboard Food Waste workshop. Quite nervous. I've been putting a lot of background work into StorrCupboard so I'm often running to chase my tail. So I’m writing this just ahead of hitting...
Nut butter smoothie pancakes
Leftover nut butter smoothie into ... pancakes?! At the moment I'm enjoying my dinners a little too much, so I'm not hugely hungry for my brekkie. So, nut butter smoothies are a good breakfast - a banana, a huge dollop of peanut butter and loads of milk. One portion...
Lardy tea bread
Using your leftover lard in sweet bread... Bread, sweet bread, sourdough and everything. It wasn’t – obviously – planned that I’d have three bread recipes in as many weeks. I certainly didn’t think that I’d find myself with dough-sticky hands again, making another...
Cornflake cookies
Leftover cornflake cookies Cornflakes are a tricky leftover, I think, for one reason- if you don't want to eat them in the way that you 'should' (in a bowl, with milk), then, what? You've bought this box, this product. Now you don't have enough for a bowl of cereal...
Leftover lard popcorn
How to use leftover lard to make popcorn It's half term here in the UK and that means hungry kids who want something to eat *now*. Healthy-ish snacks that don't rinse your bank account, are cheap and easy to smuggle into a cinema or pack into a picnic are what we all...
