Red wine sauce… THE PIG way

So many of our dishes are served with a red wine sauce because it’s such a great flavour enhancer. The first version of our recipe is the full-on one we make in our kitchens – it takes 2 days and uses some great ingredients to produce a deeply rich sauce that gives a superb depth to meaty meals. The second is easier to manage, and a rather more convenient option for a mid-week meal.

Sherry & Almond Trifle Recipe

An elaborate trifle with brandy, sherry, almonds and bay-flavoured custard, its name paying homage to the alcohol cleverly disguised inside the cake and custard. The traditional trifle made good use of stale cake soaked in alcohol, jam with no fresh fruit (this made it ‘sloppy’) and cream thickened with cornflour and almonds.
