Beetroot, Peach & Radicchio Salad + Artichoke & Silverbeet Risotto / Panang Curry with Beef / China Chilo



Blog Post & Recipe: Passionate by design


Red salad (beetroot, peach and radicchio) ... Artichoke and silverbeet risotto


Blog Post & Recipe: Panang Curry with Beef | แกงพะแนงเนื้อ


I followed the general protocol for most Thai curries - heat the thicker part of the coconut milk over medium heat until it just starts to bubble and separate, add the curry paste, cook the meat, add more coconut milk and/or water, and adjust the seasonings.


Blog Post & Recipe: China Chilo


In The Spirit of Cookery: A Popular Treatise on the History, Science, Practical, Ethical and Medical Import of Culinary Art, (1895) by J.L.W. Thudicum, this was described as “a ragout of green peas and mutton, stewed with some onions, lettuce, butter and spices, to be served with rice boiled in broth and moistened with butter. This is a most excellent dish, and is most conveniently eaten with a dessertspoon.’

Fried Minted Artichokes / Soy Seasoned Tofu / How to Roast an Eel



Blog Post & Recipe: Fried Minted Artichokes – A new addition to the Spring garden


Be very liberal in stripping the leaves off of the artichokes when prepping. The outer leaves will fry up tougher. If you need to, you can always strip more leaves off after frying.


Blog Post & Recipe: Soy Seasoned Tofu (Doobu Jorim)


This is another common dish on Korean menus. It's popular because it is super healthy, costs nothing to make and so delicious. There are many variations but we like this version because the layer of corn starch adds a little crunchy texture.


Blog Post & Recipe: Nasty Bits: How to Roast an Eel


I enjoy simmered and deep-fried eel as much as the next eel lover, but I think roasting is the best and easiest preparation for this animal. Basted in oil, the skin will become crispy as the fat underneath the skin renders away. The flesh—somewhere between a fish and alligator—will remain tender as it roasts in the oven for the better half of an hour.

Blog Post & Recipe: Not at all Cornish Pasties


I’ve made some not at all Cornish Pasties right down to the lack of side crimp but they were lovely ... I used a mix of lard and butter which gives a lovely flaky texture on baking.


Blog Post & Recipe: caramelized apple dutch baby pancakes


Do you know what a dutch baby is? Sometimes they’re called German pancakes, or Bismarks, but basically they’re a giant puffy, slightly less sweet pancake that’s baked in the oven rather than fried.

Blog Post & Recipe: Sunday Brunch: Palatschinken


These Austrian pancakes are closer to French crêpes than the thick North American pancake ... Instead of the folded French crêpes, palatschinken are filled and then rolled (jelly-roll style), and traditionally filled with apricot jam.

For most of the job, Davis used a common boning knife, but she used a mallet and cleaver to cut the breast halves apart. A chef’s knife or even the boning knife could have done the job, she said, as long as you don’t try to cut down the very center of the breast bone, the strongest part.

Globe artichokes



Article/Recipe: Have a heart.

Dealing with globe artichokes. Comes with a recipe for artichoke and bacon tart.

Simply cooked and slowly plucked until the meaty heart is revealed, the largest artichokes need the least complicated of additions to make a feast. Unadulterated melted butter is hard to beat, though a little adulteration rings the changes. Try our anchovy butter, or melted, salted butter with a few chopped thyme leaves (lemon thyme in particular), a little lemon juice and a few grinds of black pepper.
