Orchard Gold Mixed Berries in Limoncello

All we did was open a pack of Orchard Gold Mixed Berries and pour them into a serving bowl - quite a wide one as you want the berries more in a single layer than piled high.  

Pour over 2 tablespoons of Limoncello, stir and leave for a few minutes.  

Then eat.

Nigella's Iced Berries with Limoncello

We saw this recipe on Nigellissima Episode 3, from the BBC website link http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00z9lc0 .  It tastes so good, and as she says, it is sooo easy!

Prepare the berries as above, then for the sauce you'll need:

250ml cream

2 tablespoons Limoncello

200g white chocolate, finely chopped

Put the cream and the Limoncello in a saucepan and heat slowly until it is almost boiling, but don't let it boil.

Take off the heat and add the white chocolate.  Swirl the pan around and stir with a rubber spatula until the chocolate melts and the sauce is lovely and thick.

Pour over the berries and serve.

Simon called in to show us his racing gear and T-shirts with the Orchard Gold logo on - we think it looks great.
