All About The Process, Epsiode 16: Sweet Cicely Sugar

Gathered locally during the spring and summer seasons, sweet cicely boasts a sweet, anise flavour. Join Dickie as he unveils the magic behind preserving this gem into various ingredients, two of which take centre stage in our new pre-dessert creation. In this week’s episode we follow him whilst he creates a sweet cicely sugar.
