Welcome to Village Connect

I have an international background and years of expertise in making preserves of all kinds. I am passionate about food - using the best ingredients available - and I enjoy cooking and
pleasing those who eat my food; it is a form of giving love to others.

I showcase my products in Bulwick Village Stores, where I have a permanent tasting table. My idea is that customers should taste before they buy - in fact when customers taste
they almost invariably buy - the problem usually is that they are not sure what to choose!

The Pickled Village range now grace the shelves of Harvey Nichols, local Waitrose branches and some wonderful delis, farm shops, garden centres and gift shops throughout the UK.

Boiled & Baked Ham
Glazed with The Amorous Breakfast
(a pink grapefruit marmalade
with cranberries & vodka)

Just so right for
Valentine’s day!

Ingredients:

2kg gammon -
smoked is good
2 carrots, roughly chopped
2 sticks of celery, roughly chopped
2 bay leaves
A few black peppercorns
A sprig of fresh thyme – or you can
use a teaspoon of dried thyme
1 jar of The Pickled Village’s The
Amorous Breakfast Marmalade
Coarsely ground black pepper.

Method:

Put ham the gammon in a large pan.
Cover it with water. Add the carrots, celery, bay leaves, thyme
and peppercorns. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down
and simmer for about one hour, keeping the lid on. Remove
from the heat and allow to cool in the stock. Keep this stock for
making a delicious soup.

Preheat the oven to 170°C/325°F/gas 3
Remove the ham from the broth and place on a large plate or
board and, using a sharp knife, take off the skin. Remove some
of the fat. Score the fat in a criss-cross pattern and sprinkle with
black pepper. Now warm and brush two or three tablespoons
of The Amorous Breakfast Marmalade all over. Place the meat
in a roasting tin and bake for about 12 minutes - the fat will
be slightly crispy. Remove from the oven. Serve with boiled
potatoes and green vegetables. Delicious cold for salads and
sandwiches.

Opening times:
Mon - Fri 9am - 5pm & Sat 9.30am - 4.30pm
