Competition Result

A short while ago I entered a competition in assocation with To-Tuscany to win a week in a Tuscan villa and many of my friends and readers voted for me to win.  Well firstly thanks to all those who voted but unfortunately I did not win.

But the good news is that I did win one of the runner up prizes which was delivered a few weeks ago.  The prize consisted of two parts.

1. A bottle of Tuscan olive oil; Casanuova di Ama from The Bencini family. This is an olive oil cold pressed shortly after picking using traditional methods which helps it maintain its aroma and flavour.  this isn't an oil for splashing into a frying pay but for drizzling on your salad or vegetables or hommous and experienceing all that it has to offer your taste buds.

2. A copy of Valentina Harris' cook book

 
This book is a visual delight to the Tuscan table.  Even though it was first published in 2009 the photos are pure delight.  At the beginning of the book there are a few basic recipes, white sauce, tomato sauce, basic bread and clear consice photos and methods.
 
Thanks again To-Tuscany.
