A recipe asks for coconut milk. The cupboard holds a tin of coconut cream, a hard white block and a carton from the chiller. Will any of them do? Some will, with a little adjustment. One definitely won't. They're all made from the same nut, but they're made in different ways, and the difference is mostly about how much fat and how much water you...

Pick up a jar of supermarket honey and turn it round. Somewhere near the barcode, in small print, there's a good chance you'll find the words "blend of EU and non-EU honeys". It sounds official.

Packing a school lunchbox is a daily puzzle at the best of times. Add a nut-free rule to the mix, whether because of an allergy at home or a whole-school policy, and it can feel like your options shrink overnight.

A small jar delivers a lot of heat, a warm depth of flavour, and a splash of colour to all sorts of dishes. If you have a jar sitting unused, or you are wondering what all the fuss is about, here is a practical, evidence-based guide to organic cayenne pe...

Cutting down on sugar is one of the most common health goals, and the shelves are full of alternatives promising to help. But not all sweeteners are created equal, and some of the "healthy" ones are less different from sugar than the marketing suggests. Here is an evidence-based look at which sweeteners are worth considering, which are best limi...

Peanut and almond butter get all the attention, but there's a quieter spread that deserves a spot in your cupboard: sunflower seed butter. It's creamy, rich and satisfying, it works anywhere a nut butter would, and it has one big advantage the others can't match. It's completely nut-free. If you've never tried it, here's why it might just become...
