Pancake Day

Pancake day or Shrove Tuesday is just around the corner, and you will want your pancakes to stand out.  Why not make them with fine organic flour, and serve them with organic maple syrup?  Alternatively, you could use Sheffield-made jam from Greenside Deli, or cheese an pickle.  We really recommend the Lincolnshire Poacher, but Comté or Mature Cheddar would do as alternatives.

Guest Cheese

At S & J's we are proud of the quality local and regional produce we offer.  We have recently decided to offer a "guest cheese", this will normally be an artisan-made cheese from further afield.
currebntly, our guest cheese is Comté, from the Franch-Comté region of Eastern France.  A strong yet cheese, it is made from milk fed on grass or Hay, no silage is allowed.  Only milk from Montbeliarde Cattle or French simmental (or cross breeds between the two) can be used.
This quality product is available whilst stocks last at the price of £1-50 per 100g.

Yeast.

A number of customers have asked us about supplying fresh yeast to go with the flours which we stock.  We are happy to announce that we now stock fresh yeast at a price of  40p per 100g.  We usually pack this in 30g and 60g packs (12p and 24p), but are happy to weigh out any amount greater than 30g.

As a guide, 30g is slightly more than one ounce, and this is sufficient to raise 3 pounds (1.5kg) of flour.

Sweet Fishes

A book of memories from the Castle Market was produced by Archeritage.  This was the result of a project which interviewed traders and customers to find out their memories.  Together with photographs,drawings and poems, these were put together into a book.  

We are pleased to announce that we have announced further copies, which are on sale at £2-00 per copy.
