You know when you go on holiday you can try some food or ingredients that are so wonderful and you just know you won’t be able to find the same thing when you get back home. If you’re lucky, you can stock up and take some home with you but sometimes that’s not an option. I recently tried some products from Urbangrains; a website where you can buy deliciously unique products that they source straight from the producer. In the case of Urbangrains they source a lot of products from Greece bringing back happy memories of holiday food and exploring olive groves. I have tried each of the products that they are giving away as a prize, you can read my thoughts below and also enter this Urbangrains hamper giveaway to try them for yourself.
This organic mount flower honey has a lovely rich colour and I have been enjoying it for breakfast with yoghurt. It comes from fields around Mount Olympus and is unfiltered; quite unlike any honey I’ve tried before. I think it would be great for baking with too.
Next up I tried their extra virgin olive oil. It’s got a brilliantly green colour and has that slight acidity/spiciness you get with good quality extra virgin olive oil. This is one for dunking bread and using for dressings and it’s made in a PDO (protected designated origin) area in Greece.
This Tomato and Lemon Jam, also made in Greece, is made of just five ingredients: tomato, lemon, sugar, spices and apple. I like the citrusy flavour of this; I’ve tried it so far in a goat’s cheese toastie and it was lovely. I bet it would be good with feta too.

I’m not a great cook – when you have to come up with ideas, my mum is brilliant so she’d help me come up with something delicious
I would make Tomato and Lemon Jam tarts drizzled in honey.
I’d make a salad dressing using the olive oil and honey with some extra ingredients.

I would make a Greek style salad of tomato, cucumber, red onion, olives and feta and dress it with a dressing made of 1 teaspoon each of the honey and the jam whisked with a tablespoon of red wine vinegar and 3 tablespoons of the olive oil
A Greek salad with tomato, cucumber, red onion, feta and olives with a dressing made with the jam, oil and honey plus some red wine vinegar
