    • Sweet Potato & Asparagus Salad with Sesame Orange Dressing

      Sweet Potato & Asparagus Salad with Sesame-Orange Dressing

      There are a number of culinary combinations that we take for granted. That just are. Raspberry and white chocolate, apple and cinnamon, pumpkin and pecan, orange and poppy seed…to question them would be heresy. I don’t plan to. But there’s a catch associated with accepting such combinations as ‘culinary rules’. We can be inclined to forget about or try others. Others that work nearly as well, or even better, yet are not exactly by the book. But why bother when you can go with a tried and tested combination? The case in hand for today is orange and poppy seed. Why, it’s a fantastic combination, particularly in baked goods such as these orange poppy seed muffins. However, it does mean that when I consider orange and seed/nut combinations, that is the only one that crosses my mind. It’s automatic. It was well and truly time to break down that block. Venture out into the unknown. Continue reading →

      I haven’t had much time to cook, nor felt like it (what is the world coming to?!) over the past few days. Apart from the one exception (sublime homemade spinach and ricotta gnocchi in a pine nut and browned butter sauce – I’ll make it again just for you soon, promise!) meals have largely consisted of basic salads or poached eggs on veg. Despite the general abnormal behaviour in regards to cooking, I haven’t been able to resist a little baking. In fact, before I left small-town Western Australia in June last year, baking comprised the majority of my time spent cooking. My repertoire was far simpler than it is today so it only felt ‘proper’ to revisit one of the old favourites. These Dark Chocolate Orange Coconut Cookies used to be my ‘sophisticated’ biscuits. I felt very grown up using the complex ‘adult’ flavours. Boy have things moved along a fraction mile since then. Continue reading →

      Preserving. It conjures up contradicting images of prettily labelled containers on checked tablecloths and body parts floating in rusty jars. Strange, I know. Aside from that it has been one aspect of cooking that I have always been apprehensive of. It is a tradition in our family to make some kind of jam – nectarine, mulberry and apple, apricot, mango, essentially whatever fruit is in abundance – each summer. But that is always a group effort and I am not responsible for coaxing it to the correct setting point, not burning the pot in the process and also not spilling it all over the kitchen table.
