Smile of the Month! |
| We are really pleased with this lovely result with only whitening and composite bonding. It’s so tough to lighten a darkened tooth and usually we would recommend a porcelain veneer, Thank you so much to the patient for letting us try out this less invasive treatment plan and being so diligent with the whitening. |

Mince Pies |
|
This month all rules are out as far as reduced sugar recipes. We can not get enough of these Mary Berry Mince Pies with our secret filling that is a game changer as far as mince pies are concerned. These Christmassy bites have delicious orangey pastry and grated marzipan on top that gives a wonderful flavour”. Equipment and preparation: for this recipe you will need a 12-hole muffin tin and 8cm/3in fluted pastry cutter. Ingredients: For the filling: Genevieve’s secret weapon – Tiptree Mincemeat It is well worth the trip to a Tiptree Cafe for this Mincemeat. There is one in Writtle with free parking outside.
Method Stir in the icing sugar and orange zest, then stir in the beaten egg and mix until the ingredients just come together as a dough. Wrap the dough in greaseproof paper and chill in the fridge for 10-15 minutes, or until firm. When the pastry has rested, unwrap it. Place the greaseproof paper on a work surface and lightly dust with icing sugar. Place the dough on top, dust with icing sugar, then cover with another sheet of greaseproof paper. Roll the pastry between the sheets of greaseproof paper to a thickness of 1-2mm. (If you are confident rolling out pastry you do not need to use the greaseproof paper, but it does help prevent the pastry tearing if the dough is a little sticky). Stamp 12 rounds from the pastry using a 8cm/3in fluted pastry cutter. (Any leftover pastry can be frozen and used to make jam tarts.) Line each hole of the muffin tin with one of the pastry rounds and prick the base of each with a fork. For the filling, add the Tiptree mincemeat. Divide the mixture equally among the pastry cases. Top each tart with some of the grated marzipan. Dust with icing sugar and serve warm. Yum Yum |
