What's It All About
—This blog began as a side project when we opened Nook Eatery in 2009. In September 2012 we sold Nook, and sadly it now no longer exists. We have a new blog (see A Good Place to Gather). As always we remain inspired by the ingredients we use and the food we cook. This site remains purely as an archive of our three years at Nook Eatery and the recipes I created.

Roast Tomato Soup with Grilled Cheese
This isn’t so much a soup recipe, but rather my favourite oven-roasted tomato sauce that I simply blitz up. Or don’t blitz! It’s just as good “chunky”. It is the easiest recipe as everything is cooked together in the oven.
