Blackberry curd is something you just can't buy, so it's well worth making your own. Juicy seasonal blackberries or frozen ones, make a sumptuous fruit curd with an intense fruity flavour. It's simple to make, just puree the fruit, strain out the seeds for a smooth texture and cook over a gentle heat with sugar, lemon juice and whole eggs. It keeps for a few weeks in the fridge and is excellent spread on crumpets, toast and scones.

Roll over matcha, it's time to make way for hojicha - Japanese roasted green tea. This no-churn hojicha ice cream is smoky and toasty with subtle caramel notes. Made with Greek yoghurt and honey rather than condensed milk, it has a fresher flavour and lighter finish that complements the roasted tea beautifully. Whipped double cream gives it a wonderfully smooth, creamy texture. It's quick to make, but needs several hours to freeze.
