This week we are celebrating Afternoon Tea Week! Afternoon Tea may be seen as a British institution that has always been around, but did you know that it was first introduced to Britain in the 1840’s. It evolved as a mini meal to stem the hunger and anticipation of an evening meal at 8pm. Afternoon Tea is a meal composed of sandwiches (usually cut delicately into 'fingers'), scones with clotted cream and jam, sweet pastries and cakes.
For part two of “Chefs During Lockdown”, we are speaking to Punch Pubs Menu Development Manager, Andy Briggs, about the impact of Coronavirus, unpredictable frustrations and what the future looks like. How has life changed for yourself and Punch Pubs during this unprecedented time?
This week we continue our culinary journey as we turn our attention to North Africa. In 2019 the National Restaurants Association described North African cuisine as an up and coming trend in their ‘What’s Hot’ report… and that is still very much the case in 2020. We have collated five of our favourite North African recipes to inspire your menu, including those using our new chermoula seasoning from our Street Food Chef range!
Last week we hosted a survey called ‘Since re-opening’, we wanted to know about your experience since re-opening your doors to the public. It is important that we understand how we can support you in the current climate.
Well, the results are in! Based on your answers we have gathered the best recipes to help you deliver what your customers want and how to get in touch with us for any other queries.
