From the moment the charcuterie fad started, I have been one who gets lost scrolling through photo after photo of graze boards. They're ALL gorgeous, and they're all so, so different. I've always loved food, and i've always loved art. I have an English degree because I look at writing as an art with words. I play music because I love to create. I look at charcuterie in the same way. It is art with food, and graze tables..they're like charcuterie boards on steroids.
Roast Chicken, Walnut & Feta Bowls [dropcap style=”font-size: 60px; color: #9b9b9b;”] I[/dropcap] have a bit of a thing for one-tray roast dinners at the moment. I love being able to pop everything in the oven, set the timer and then read books with my boys while dinner cooks itself. If you aren’t in the mood […]
I can't think of a better solitary treat: making something that needs unmoulding is nerve-wracking when you have to do it in front of people; alone, it gives a rather delicious frisson, and the bestowing of a hushed and hallowed moment. Creme caramel is just such a ridiculous thing to be making for oneself; therein lies the gift of it. And then there's the dreamy softness of the mild custard, the scorched syrup that counters it: eating it is a transporting experience. I know it's customary to use both cream and milk in a creme caramel but to me it's the delicacy, the lack of richness, of the custard that gives it its teasing elegance. And, it's true, I used just yolks for it, rather than the more usual combination of whole egg and extra yolk, because that's what I needed to use up, but I would never toughen the texture of a creme caramel with an egg white again: this version is so exquisitely tender, its set so soft, it's like a whisper on the lips. That ethereal quality is partly, too, due to the way it's cooked. The water bath is routine enough, but covering it for the first 30 minutes it's in the oven helps it cook more gently still, as it protects the top from even the low heat it bakes at; it does need to be uncovered for the last 20 minutes, though, or else it won't hold its form when unmoulded later. For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.

With the goodness of cottage cheese paired with an array of flavourful vegetables, you’re truly in for a treat for this protein-packed veg and cottage cheese slice. My favourite thing about this vegetarian slice is that it can be served hot or cold. It’s great to have for dinner and can be packed straight into lunchboxes for the next day. Our serving size is based off eating the slice as a snack, so take that into consideration when serving as a main. What’s more, it’s easily customisable. You can get super creative with the filling by adding other vegies in, or taking out ones that you’re not a huge fan of. This recipe is a fantastic source of plant-based protein, making it the perfect addition to your healthy meal repertoire!

I’ve always admired the relationship the French have with food. Not just the incredible flavors that they are able to whip up on the fly, but the emphasis they place on enjoying a meal. Food isn’t just sustenance, it’s a work of art — one that’s meant to be savored, preferably with those you love.The French treat every meal as if it’s an occasion.
I have to be real for a moment. Sometimes, I get into a major baking/cooking slump. Lately, there have been a lot of recipe fails..which, inevitably, leads to frustration. I find that stepping back and letting other tasks distract me is just the thing that helps. I’ve been letting myself get lost in the task...Read More »

Condensed milk is an ingredient I love to work with as it pairs so perfectly with so many different flavours. But, I have to say, my mind was blown when I experimented by whisking together condensed milk and blitzed strawberries. The fresh fruity flavours seep into the syrupy, milky texture and set to make the perfect slice. What’s more, you’ll be happy to know the base is our tried-and-tested Weet-Bix base! Who wouldn’t love the addition of the Aussie classic cereal? All the ingredients are on-hand, pantry staples, making these strawberry condensed milk Weet-Bix bars the perfect treat to whip up at a moment’s notice.

I feel very strongly that you should use the moister brown meat, from the thigh, for this, but if you prefer breast meat, and it's a common preference, that's your choice. I can't pretend to understand it though. There is a long list of ingredients below — and I am not going to pretend this is the sort of food you can bang out in a moment. One ease-making factor to be borne in mind: not only can it be made in advance, it needs to be; only after a day or two in the fridge does it have the full depth and resonance of flavour. And please read the Additional Information section at the end of the recipe before proceeding. For US cup measures, use the toggle at the top of the ingredients list.
Just a little of this and that and a whole lotta love goes into this tasty meal.
Notes: This recipe is essentially the Buttermilk Blueberry Breakfast Cake recipe but with cranberries swapped for the blueberries. I've increased the sugar to 1 cup (from 7/8 cup) b/c cranberries are a bit tart and substituted orange zest for the lemon zest. If you don't like cranberries, many people have had luck with frozen blueberries. Also, this batter can be prepared the night before. Don't store it in the pan you plan on baking it in — store it in tupperware of some sort, then transfer to a greased pan in the morning.

It was Sunday evening, the kitchen was a mess, and I was left empty-handed. It was my first weekend baking in nearly two months, and I had nothing to show for it. After traveling most of August and facing the whirlwind of starting a new school year, the longest I had spent in the kitchen
