  • pickle red onions that you don't think you will use all of - use white wine/rice vinegar, cloves, sprigs of thyme, half a clove of garlic, sugar. they go pink and pretty and are delicious on many things
  • smoked fish pate - mix smoked mackerel (easiest with this fish, or cooked salmon) with cream cheese, a squeeze of lemon juice and half a teaspoon of horseradish (or to taste)
  • use leftover pesto in toasties or spooned into omelettes or in pastries
