Episode 6

Gregor MacLeod gathers seaweed from the shore to put into a cake and uses locally grown vegetables in a tart.

Down at the shore, Gregor meets a local seaweed harvester who helps him gather sugar kelp. Gregor takes this precious super food home to add to carrot cake. The natural salts in the seaweed perfectly balance the cake’s sweetness.

Gregor also shows us his recipe for the chewiest and chocolatiest biscuits. If you can resist eating all of them, Gregor then shows us how to completely reinvent the biscuits into a moist overnight cake. Soaked in Irish cream liqueur and covered in cream, this is the perfect prepare ahead cake.

In the neighbouring village, Gregor visits islanders who have turned their shed into a shop. There he picks up home-grown potatoes and onions which he tuns into cheesy tart. Simple but so tasty.

Tha Gregor MacLeòid dealasach mu bhiadh ionadail. Bho dhachaigh ann an Leòdhas, tha e a’ sealltainn far am bi e a’ dol airson a’ bhìdh as fheàrr.

Tha Gregor a’ coinneachadh ri neach-buana feamad a tha ga chuideachadh a’ cruinneachadh ceilpe. Tha e a’ toirt an t-sàr-bhiadh seo dhachaigh ‘son a chur ann an cèic churrain. Tha salann nàdarra na feamad a’ cothromachadh mìls’ na cèice.

Agus tha reasabaidh aige airson briosgaidean cagnach, teòclaid. Mura h-eilear gan ithe sa bhad, tha Gregor a’ sealltainn mar a ghabhas an cleachdadh airson cèic tais a dhèanamh. Air am bogadh ann an liciùr uachdar Èireannach agus air a chòmhdach le bàrr, seo a’ chèic as fheàrr a ghabhas dèanamh ro-làimh.

Tha Gregor a’ tadhal air eileanaich a th’ air an t-seada aca a thionndaidh na bhùth. An sin, tha e a’ togail buntàta agus uinneanan ionadail a tha e a’ cleachdadh airson tart càise. Sìmplidh, ach blasta.
