These cookies are deliciously buttery, and just sweet enough (as all good shortbread should be). But they're also decidedly different, thanks to the chewy bits of whisky-soaked oats and currants, inspired in part by the classic Scottish dessert cranachan.
View RecipeDelicious, airy, lightly almond-flavoured sable shortbread (or サブレー, 'sabure' in Japanese), made with homemade, cured Japanese cherry blossoms. The cookies themselves are very easy to make, while the cherry blossoms are a fairly simple multi-day project. Don't have access to an ornamental cherry tree? No worries - you can purchase preserved sakura easily too (see the notes below).

View RecipeA distinctive and delicious shortbread variation that's also easy to make! The rosemary is wonderfully balanced by the bright citrus punch of the grapefruit, and neither ingredient overwhelms the individual cookies. Note that the cooking time can vary considerably depending on a few factors. See the notes for more details.
