Eva, a participant in BBM2, noticed I had a hankering for Jamie Oliver's Flavour Shaker, and since she was going to be visiting the UK, kindly offered to send one to me. Eva, you are too kind!
Besides the shaker, Eva included treats! Some chocolate ginger cookies, a scottish macaroon, some crackers, and a matured christmas pudding! Eva, how did you know I love christmas pudding, and was so sad that I wouldn't get to London this year to pick some up! Thank you so much, I'll be sending you some treats very soon.
And if you're wondering if I've tried the shaker yet - what, you think I could resist for longer than 10 seconds? It's a hard plastic shaker with a rubber gasket and a ceramic ball. You put whatever you want to bash up in the shaker, drop in the ball, close it up and shake. It works amazingly well, and if you click below you can see the Maldon salt/peppercorn mixture that was ground to perfection in mere seconds.
Thanks again Eva!
Oh, by the way, keep an eye out for my review of Jamie's newest cookbook, Jamie's Italy, on it's way to me now from Amazon UK.
