Mix the ingredients thoroughly with a wooden spoon.

5

Divide the mixture into three portions: one without bicarbonate, one with a pinch of bicarbonate, and one with a secret ingredient (baking powder).

6

Let the mixture sit for at least a couple of hours to allow flavors to develop.

Serve with a mixed leaf salad, pan-fried potatoes, Dijon mustard, and finely diced red onion.
