A shortcake is firmer than a sponge and is a classic recipe to use with fruit and cream. The most usual one is with strawberries and this is very good to have in summer. There are several recipes to choose from but this one is my favourite. The base compliments the fruit and cream and it also looks so good! You will need a 20cm/8in. sandwich cake tin, a large piping bag and a star tube.

Salad Days The components of our classic summer salad may seem boring but it turns out they have been assembled from across the world and millennia: Lettuce Lettuce is a member of the daisy family. It was cultivated in ancient Egypt for the oil in its seeds and went on to be bred selectively for its edible leaves, reaching 30 inches tall & somewhat like our modernday Romaine lettuce, by 2680 BC. It was considered sacred, dedicated to the God of Reproduction, Min, and an important part of ceremonies - recorded in many images in tombs and wall paintings. The large upright lettuces developed by the Egyptians reached the Greeks, where the island of Cos was a major producer during the Byzantine period. In turn, the Greeks shared the plant with the Romans. Both the Romans and the Egyptians claimed
Celtuce lettuce grown for its stem used in Chinese cooking 8
the plant increased sexual prowess and vigour (all night apparently), whereas the Greeks believed the opposite and used it in funerals. Much more recently, British women in the 19th century alleged it caused sterility. In fact, it has mild narcotic properties – due to chemicals in the milky sap, a type of latex, in the stems. Anglo Saxons knew the plant as ‘Sleepwort’. After the many centuries’ development, there are now over a thousand types of lettuce. In China for instance a variety is grown for the stem – rather than the leaves - as eating raw food is not acceptable there.
Romaine lettuce, a descendant of some of the earliest cultivated lettuce of vitamins K and A and other than Iceberg – folate and iron as well. Tomatoes
Memorably, Beatrice Potter’s rabbits are renowned for finding lettuce irresistible but perhaps Mr McGregor was playing a long game? Rabbits’ digestive systems cannot cope with lettuce, it can even prove fatal – so deffo not pet food.
Tomatoes are berries, discovered by the Spanish in South America and taking their Aztec name ‘Tomatl’ (fat water) with them to Europe. The original wild versions were small, like cherry tomatoes and probably yellow.
Interestingly, most of the time lettuce – of course it was larger so more coarse - was cooked (poached), or semi-cooked (the Romans would smother it in a hot oil and vinegar dressing). Now we usually eat it raw which means it is super-important to wash it thoroughly (otherwise a recognised pathway for toxins….). That done, lettuce is a good source
They were rapidly adopted by Spanish and Italian cuisines,

HMOs planning consultation Residents’ concerns about high concentrations of houses in multiple occupation (HMOs) have led to a proposal to extend planning rules across the city.
L
EE
FR
IA TR
In most of Brighton & Hove, property owners wishing to convert a family house into a shared house or HMO for up to six people do not currently have to get planning permission. Larger HMOs of seven or more occupants already need planning permission. Currently five wards have controls through an ‘Article 4 Direction’ which means that in the following areas small HMO conversions need planning permission: • • • • •
Hanover & Elm Grove Hollingdean & Stanmer Moulsecoomb & Bevendean Queen’s Park St Peters & North Laine
If agreed it will mean that planning permission will be required for a change of use from a family home to a small HMO anywhere in the city. A citywide approach aims to make the rules consistent for everyone, provide long-term certainty for developers and residents and prevent concentrations getting too high before action is taken. It would also bring the planning regulations in line with HMO licensing which is already in force citywide. Give us your views on the proposal by visiting ‘open consultations’ at: www. brighton-hove.gov.uk/consultation. The consultation runs from Monday 3rd June to Monday 15th July.

Tomato plants are vines – growing 3-10 foot. Generally, if not supported, they would ‘sprawl’ across the ground where the hairs on their stems can form new roots when in contact with the soil as needed, especially if the main stem is damaged.
A small selection of tomatoes
whereas the French and Northern Europeans regarded them purely as decorative – mistakenly believing them to be poisonous, the idea being exacerbated by their interaction with pewter plates.
The leaves, stem and unripe fruits contain small amounts of tomatine and solanine, toxins also found in potato leaves and other members of the deadly nightshade family. (So, it is a NO to tomato leaf tea…known to be responsible for at least one death. It is also important to be careful about pets - the plant and even the fruit is toxic to dogs). There are over 7,500 varieties worldwide now, with about 177 billion tonnes produced annually. China accounts for 32%, followed by the EU then India, US and Turkey. The
most productive farms in the world are in the Netherlands, Belgium and, unexpectedly, Iceland. Tomatoes should be stored unwashed at room temperature, ideally on the stem. Tomatoes kept in the fridge are thought to lose their flavour permanently.

Shiny Shoes – Put the polish on at night, polish off in the morning. Dry dog – Use chamois leather to dry your dog quickly after a bath/
walkies episode.
Auto-watering – To water plants while you are away put one end of a pipe cleaner into a bowl of water and the other end in the plant pot. The plant will be able to draw the water when it becomes dry. Cleaning after baking- Sprinkle the doughy/floury surfaces with salt – then wipe away with a damp sponge.

In the 18th century, long before effective water purification and treatment systems were discovered, quenching the thirst could be hazardous, even deadly. Historically most people consumed ale or light beer, the wealthy enjoyed wine, children were given milk and paupers usually had to drink unsafe water. Enter alcoholic spirits, notably gin - affordable and widely available. Vendors roamed the streets pushing handcarts loaded with gin that, costing only one penny a quarter-pint, was far cheaper than either beer or ale. Gin temporarily disguised the feeling of cold and the hunger pangs of the poorest and

most vulnerable in Georgian society: it also led to crime, debt, unemployment, neglect and death. Women, particularly, often bought gin as a medicinal drink to soothe the nerves, possibly giving rise to the epithet ‘Mother’s ruin’, although its precise origins are debateable. Dutch courage Gin is a distilled alcoholic drink that derives its main flavour from juniper berries (Juniperus communis: the common juniper). It is a broad category of spirit, having diverse origins and embracing various flavours, but all types use juniper as the common ingredient. English gin probably originated
with the older Dutch liquor, genever - the juniperflavoured national liquor of the Netherlands and Belgium. Initially it was produced in the Low Countries by distilling malt wine to 50% ABV, but distilling techniques were then primitive, the resulting spirit unpleasant tasting, so herbs were added to improve the flavour. The juniper berry - jeneverbes in Dutch (hence the name jenever, Old English genever and later ‘gin’) – had traditionally been used for its alleged medicinal properties, but by the early-1600s the Dutch were levying taxes on jenever and similar liquors as alcoholic drinks, indicating that jenever, no longer considered primarily a health-
Dried juniper berries were traditionally a medicinal remedy, becoming essential in the spirits industry by the early-1600s giving remedy, was becoming a commercial commodity in the spirits industry. The British relationship with Dutch gin may have begun with the English soldiers providing military support in Antwerp against the Spanish in 1585, during the Eighty Years’ War. Reportedly they took to drinking genever for its calming effects before battle, a habit that reputedly gave rise to the term ‘Dutch courage’. Shortly afterwards gin emerged in England in varying forms and at the time of the Restoration in 1660 enjoyed even greater favour, becoming a popular alternative to brandy after William of Orange became King of England, Ireland and Scotland in 1689.

production, simultaneously imposing a hefty duty on all imported spirits, including French brandy. This fuelled the home market for lowgrade barley unsuitable for brewing beer, and during the early-1700s thousands of English gin-shops sprang up, ushering in a period known as the Gin Craze. Because of the cheap cost of gin, compared with other beverages, gin began to be consumed regularly by the poor. Of the 15,000 drinking establishments in London (excluding coffee and drinking chocolate shops), over half were gin shops. Whereas lowalcoholic beer retained a respectable reputation as a safe alternative to water, gin was blamed directly for the various social problems of the age. It was the comparative reputation of the two drinks that popular artist William Hogarth illustrated in his didactic engravings Beer Street and Gin Lane (1751) with which we began this article. Described by the BBC as “arguably the most potent anti-drug poster ever conceived”, Gin Lane depicted in graphic detail the inevitable slippery slope from the glass to the grave. In early-18th century London, much gin was produced in illegal pot stills inside residential houses and cruder forms of the drink often used turpentine or sulphuric acid in addition to juniper. These were 16

An array of regular gin brands, purchased by a traditional clientele during the 20th century G & T: a tropical drink Eventually the development of the modern column still during the late-1820s/ early-1830s facilitated the distillation of neutral spirits, thus prompting the creation of the famous ‘London dry’ gins. It was also during the early-1800s that gin and tonic water became familiar partners. In British colonies in India and elsewhere in the tropics where malaria was prevalent, gin was used to disguise the bitter flavour of quinine. Quinine, the only effective anti-malarial compound, was dissolved in carbonated water to form what became known as tonic water. The resulting cocktail drink was thus gin and tonic or G & T – still enjoyed today, albeit today’s tonic water usually contains only a trace of quinine as flavouring.

Due to the relatively simple methods used in gin production, clandestine ‘bathtub gin’ was widely available in the speakeasy bars of Prohibition-era America. Mixed alcoholic drinks or cocktails were all the rage during the Roaring Twenties, with gin a common base spirit for many fashionable drinks such as martini (gin and vermouth) and the ‘gimlet’, a cocktail of gin and lime juice. Gin remained a traditional spirit, especially among older drinkers, before suddenly experiencing a dramatic revival worldwide in the past 5 or 6 years. Many new brands and producers now lead innovation and change, including novel coloured and flavoured gins that appeal to a wider, more youthful market. Many English towns and cities have also created their own, uniquely packaged local brands of gin, including

Roses & Elderowers By Lucinda Warner Early June is such a joyful time. The hedgerows are filled with life and abundance as butterflies, bees and bugs frequent the blooms of elder and wild rose. Both these plants are rich sources of food and medicine for humans as well as other creatures, giving us one bountiful harvest now, and another in the autumn when the elderberries and rosehips ripen. Elderflower is a traditional herbal remedy that has a variety of uses, from helping to clear fevers, to easing the symptoms of hayfever. Try combining it in a tea with plantain and nettle if you are suffering seasonal allergies or with yarrow and peppermint for helping to encourage a fever to break. The elder tree was considered sacred in
times past and it was believed that a nature deity called the Eldermother resided within. It was therefore considered important to ask permission before harvesting or cutting any part of the tree, a tradition which I like to follow even today as a sign of respect and gratitude for all the gifts nature offers. Rose is cooling, calming, antiinflammatory and soothing to the emotions, especially grief and sadness. It is lovely externally for soothing red or irritated skin. The healing properties of these two wonderful plant allies can be combined in a variety of delicious ways. Perhaps most simply a tea can be made with the fresh or dried elderflowers and
rose petals with hot water. Or you can try making a sun tea, which is a lovely way to enjoy these plants on a hot day. To make a sun tea add one head of elderflowers and a small handful of rose petals into a glass or jug of cool water. Leave in direct sunlight for a couple of hours and then strain and drink the lightly fragranced and deliciously flavoured water. This is cooling and refreshing and has a soothing and uplifting quality to it. If you are a fan of making elderflower cordial why not

try adding some rose to it this year? It makes a delicious drink with cold water or an interesting ingredient for summer cocktails. I also love to make rose and elderflower infused apple cider vinegar which I use as a dressing on summer salads. To make it, lightly pack a jam jar with the flowers (stems and green parts removed) then cover with apple cider vinegar and leave to infuse out of direct light for a couple of weeks. Then simply strain, bottle and label. Finally you could try making an elderflower and rose infused oil, which makes a beautiful

Cucumber A refreshing summer favourite, cucumbers are 95% water. They are actually a type of gourd and originated in India. Humans have cultivated them for at least 3,000 years, although they didn’t reach Britain until the 14th century. Emperor Tiberius adored them and had them on his table every day - during winter they were grown in mobile beds under mica and pushed around to get the sun. We were rather slower to adopt them – uncooked food was considered unhealthy and they were known as cowcumber being thought fit only for cattle feed. How times change! In the Victorian era, serving paper-thincucumber sandwiches at high tea was the essence of elegance and opulence. Perhaps because their minimal nutritional value indicated an ample diet? The habit was adopted throughout the empire, providing a cooling taste of home when temperatures rose in India, Australia and Africa. They are apparently more effective at refreshing us than ice-cream. Like to try a taste of the Raj? – Thinly slice cucumber, gently dry before sprinkling with salt and a dash of lemon juice and place between lightly buttered slices of bread. Accompany with tea. Don’t forget to raise your pinkie. 24

We aim to get more people talking about suicide in an open and honest way, helping them to learn the skills and gain the confidence to recognise when a person is struggling and take action.
