A wonderful marinade for beef, lamb or chicken; this marinade is suffused with the flavours and smells of summer, minus the sound of the bees buzzing! Allow the meats to marinate all day or overnight for a more pronounced flavour as well as being extra moist and juicy. Culinary lavender essence can be bought at specialist cook's shops online or at your local lavender farms. If you cannot get hold of culinary lavender essence, use a handful of lavender flowers, lightly crushed.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Delicious! Fresh lavender from our garden was used for this recipe to marinate drumsticks for 24 hours; crushed lavender flowers in place of the essence, local organically grown garlic and local clover honey. Roasted the drumsticks at 350 degrees for 1 hour in a grill pan. Served with wild rice pilaf, Sauteed Kale With Smoked Paprika and focaccia.~Tasty Dish~ approved, too! Thank you, French Tart! cg
