Books...Books...Books...Local author Richard Bell has a new book of nine walks, all of
which are in the rhubarb triangle with a number of rhubarb
recipes.
Launched at this year's February Rhubarb Festival in
Wakefield, “Walks in the Rhubarb Triangle” contains nine local
walks, al illustrated in colour along with several family favourite
rhubarb recipes from Richard’s wife.
Richard states: “I first heard about the rhubarb triangle when I
was a student so I included rhubarb in my first book, A Natural
History of Wakefield, in 1978.
“My new book is different to the others I’ve written as it is very
colourful and includes picture maps and points of interest in
pen and ink and watercolours. It also includes delicious
recipes from my wife Barbara for rhubarb bread and butter
pudding, rhubarb cheesecake and rhubarb triangles, which are
a type of flapjack.
Available from Rickaro
Books in Horbury, “Walks in

The ladies work together as a team, preparing and producing curtains and blinds for The Curtain Shop. Everythingis done in-house, which means that quality is closely controlled and maintained and although there is a certainamount of humour and banter throughout the day, the machines rarely stop and the ladies give a real sense of‘getting down to business’’, showing an obvious pride in the work that comes out of The Curtain Shop sewing room.

It’s everything rhubarb this month! Let us know if you have a favourite rhubarb recipe Email: [email protected]
Rhubarb(Rheumrhabarbarum)is botanically speaking a vegetable but most often treatedas a fruit. It is almost unbearably tart on it’s own, andgenerally needs the sweetness fo sugar, honey or fruitjuice added to balance the acidity. It’s kind of vegetableyou either love or hate - nothing in-between. With anearthy, sour taste, the succulent stems are used in saucesand pies, and can be eaten raw or stewed in desserts.Rhubarb is a good source of fibre and contains moderatelevels of vitamin C and calcium. It is also low in sodiumand contains dietary fibre. Studies have linked the fibrefrom rhubarb in the diet with reduced cholesterol levels.
Perfect Poached RhubarbSlowing poaching rhubarb in the oven keeps the pieceswhole rather than ending up with a mushy pulp
1lb/450g rhubarb 4oz/110g caster sugar
Preheat the oven to 325F/160C/gas mark 3. Trim the rhubarb, wash the stems, dry and cut into shortlengths. Arrange in a single layer in a roasting tin.Sprinkle over the sugar and cover with a lid or foil. Bake for fifteen minutes and remove from the oven. Therhubarb should still be slightly “al dente” but if it is still tohard, return to the oven for another 5 -10 minutes.Leave until cool, still covered, until the rhubarb isdeliciously soft with lots of syrup. Serve with custard, cream or Greek yoghurt and lemonshortcake or ginger biscuits.
Rhubarb Fool with Rhubarb Sauce
Cook the rhubarb in a pan with the sugar, lemon juice and vanillapod for about 4-5 minutes, or until the rhubarb is softened and thick.Cool completely and then remove the vanilla pod.Line six large 300ml capacity dishes or glasses with cling film andthen line the sides of the prepared dishes with sponge fingers.Fold together the whipped cream, custard and cooled rhubarb. Spooninto the dishes tapping the mixture down. Cover with cling film.Chill for several hours, or overnight if possible.To make the sauce, gently cook the rhubarb with the sugar and100ml of water until the rhubarb is soft and slightly stringy. Puree ina blender, and then push the mixture through a fine sieve.Add a squeeze of lemon juice and adjust the sweetening to taste,adding a little more sugar if necessary. Gently pull the cling film andturn the fools out. Serve with the rhubarb sauce.

18 months ago Andrea Lunn opened her first dress agency and hasn’t looked back since.
Providing nearly-new designer clothing at realistic prices proved so popular that Andrea
has brought the same idea to Ossett, opening Lilly Lu on Station Road.
The idea for the Lilly Lu shops came from realising that although Ebay is
probably the most popular way of acquiringpre-owned goods, not everyone
is comfortable with computers and with clothing in particular, many buyers
want to see and try on the items before buying.
So how does the agency work? Andrea accepts and sells clothing and
designer labels up to two years old on a 50% commision basis. She will
agree a realistic sale price with you for each item of clothing you take into
the shop, asking you to call back in a month to collect the money for items
that have sold. Andrea takes 50% of the sale price in sales commision.
She puts the secret of the success of the dress agencies down to the fact
that she only accepts quality clothing under two years old and she charges
realistic resale prices for them. In the current economic climate this
provides a means of remaining stylish without breaking the bank.
The popularity of
the Lilly Lu shops
can also be
attributed to the
bags, jewellery and
accessories that
Andrea stocks to
complement the
clothing. As these
are bought brand
new, Lilly Lu is also
an ideal place to
shop for gifts.
The Ossett shop
opened to a great
response and
feedback from local
shoppers has been
amazing. If the first
week of trading is
anything to go by,
Lilly Lu Ossett is
going to be a real
success!

When Pudpot, the Yorkshire Pudding Parlour, opened in Horbury’s Tithe Barn
Street last year, most people thought “What a great idea - why hasn’t it
done before?” And the success that followed the opening reinforced
this. In fact Pudpot was so successful that Tracey, the owner, soon
had to make the decision to move to larger premises within the
grounds of Ossett Town Football Club. She left Horbury reluctantly
after the fabulous support she received there and as a gesture
of thanks to her Horbury customers, still provides a free
delivery service to Horbury from her new Ossett premises.
Perfecting the Art of
Yorkshire Pudding MakingWonder and mystery has always surrounded the
making of Yorkshire Puddings and the myth that
only Yorkshire people make truly delicious
Yorkshire puds, isn’t necessarily totally fabrication -
Yorkshire folk do make the best Yorkshire
puddings! And Tracey really has perfected the art.
With a background in the beauty business, going
into the catering business was always going to be
a big jump, but specialising in something as
temperamental as Yorkshire puddings was a huge
leap. Tracey is somewhat hesitant in giving away
the secret to her fabulous Yorkshire puddings, but
she has extended an invitation to give anyone a
lesson in making them - all you need to do is go
along to Pudpots and ask - if she isn’t too busy,
she’ll give a quick impromptu lesson.
A Traditional Roast with all
the TrimmingsTracey has always had a passion for good value
‘proper’ homemade, homecooked food and when
she saw a gap in the market in Ossett & Horbury
for something a little bit different, she jumped at it.
Giant Yorkshire puddings with a whole host of
fillings to choose from always goes down well and
is one of the most popular meal choices at Pudpots
but Tracy maintains “A full roast dinner with all the
trimmings and a couple of well risen, light Yorkshire
puds is still one of the best meals you can have”.
And Tracey’s Sunday lunches are excellent value at
only £4.95 per Adult and £3.95 per Child or Senior
Citizen portion. The roast dinners include Yorkshire
Pudding, roast potatoes (cooked in dripping), mash,
stuffing and two seasonal vegetables. The meat is
a choice of Pork Loin, Chicken or Silverside of
Beef. Open from 1pm to 5pm every Sunday, the
meals can be ordered to take out or they can be
eaten on the premises - tables can be reserved at
anytime through the week.
Something for EveryoneAs well as the traditional roast dinners and Giant
Yorkshires, Pudpots provides a full breakfast
service from 8.30am with everything you would
expect. In addition to the standard breakfast fayre,
Pudpots also offers special breakfast choices for
slimmers (lean, griddled and non-stodgy), coeliacs
(gluten free) and vegetarians (meat substitutes).
For lunches, hot roast sandwiches are a speciality,
with Tracey quick to emphasise only the best cuts
of meat used. Steak & Ale, Meat & Potato, Mince
& Onion, Steak & Kidney and Chicken &
Mushroom pies are all available with homemade
chips or mash and mushy peas or beans.
Even Better Value with Meal
Deals and Special Offers Credit crunch busting Meal Deals are available
through the week, giving even better value for
money. Customers can book for the week (but still
order and choose on a daily basis) and for every 4
meals booked, two desserts are given free. Plus
free delivery is included within Ossett & Horbury.
Special Offers are available daily: Jacket Potatoes
for £1.50 on Mondays, Tuesday is Pie Day, with
pies for £2.20 with free mushy peas or beans and
onion gravy, on Thursdays Paninis are all £2.10
and on Fridays, any Coffee with a slice of any cake
is only £2.00.
Catering and FunctionsAs well are providing a popular eat-in or take-out
service, Pudpots can offer outside catering at a
venue of your choice or can provide catering within
the Ossett Town Football Club. If you choose to
book catering with Pudpots, no charge will be
made for the clubroom, which represents really
good value for special occasions and events.
