  1. I love the colour, texture and patterns in red cabbage for taking photos (it’s great to eat too!) Braised red cabbage with cooking apples and spices in the oven at the moment. To be frozen and used for Christmas lunch. #photography #redcabbage #cooking

  6. And yeah, I've seen urine used for various purposes, but not as a dye mordant... Not for the squeamish!

    20 Natural Dye Plants You Can Forage and Grow in Your Garden

    By Catherine Winter

    Excerpt: "Would you prefer to go a super-natural route, since you’re using plant-based dyes? If you’re aiming to be as self-sufficient as possible, there are also all-organic mordant options as well.

    Natural Mordants:

    - Sumac: Simmer fresh sumac twigs for about an hour, strain out the twiggy bits, and reduce the liquid by half
    - Urine: human urine is ideal for mordanting, but you’ll need to age it. Collect it in a jar and allow it to age for several days. [🤢 ]
    - Salt: You can use standard table salt as a mordant, but Kosher salt can yield some of the strongest color-fastness. [I've used that]
    - Vinegar [That too]
    - Wood ash lye

    "You’ve probably noticed that some of these are alkaline, and some are acidic. Alkaline mordants tend to work best with plant-based fibers like cotton, linen, and #hemp. In contrast, acidic mordants like vinegar are better with animal fibers like #wool, #alpaca, and #angora.

    "Note that if you use an acidic mordant and your colors still run, you can set the color by dipping the fabric in a 50/50 vinegar/water solution. In contrast, if you’ve used an alkaline mordant like lye or baking soda [another one I've used], an acidic solution will strip the color rather than setting it." [Been there, done that!]

  11. Isn't a crunchy coleslaw just delightful? I think so too. We prepare various versions at home, depending on what it's accompanying. For British or European-style meals, we opt for a mayo-based version, but for Asian dishes, we definitely choose this one.
