Taste.com.auの June 2016 の目次

Once again I was thrilled to be asked to be the guest editor of taste magazine. As I’ve said before, I love winter food and soup is definitely a favourite. What I love about soup is the extras you can add (I never eat a plain bowl of soup!); so I’ve topped my pumpkin soup with cheesy gnocchi and sweet crispy bacon (page 18). Give it a go and you could win $2500 cash (page 26) – or cook any of my selection of star soups for your chance to win a Chasseur French Oven. For a hearty dinner party favourite, don’t miss my Braised Beef & Macaroni Gratin Pies on page 74. This issue has lots of great cosy food ideas and recipes to get you ready for chilly…

“My super-special version of pumpkin soup tastes all the better topped with golden chestnut chips and crispy maple bacon. You’ll love it!”Manu Feildel 1 You can buy precooked and peeled chestnuts in cans or cryovac packets in gourmet delis or selected grocery shops 2 Choose a beautiful vibrant and sweet-fleshed pumpkin such as a Kent or butternut pumpkin, for a lovely, sweet flavour. 3 If you like your soup thinner, add a little stock after the soup is pureed until you reach the consistency you’re after. 4 Parisienne gnocchi are made using choux-style dough. For a crisper finish, make sure you drain these well before grilling with the cheese. 5 For the bacon, I always use a pure maple syrup, as opposed to a maple-flavoured syrup, as it gives a…

“Bologna is so associated with rich food and good living that its nickname is ‘Bologna the fat’.” the Italians love to claim they already knew all about pasta way before Marco Polo is supposed to have returned from China with the recipe for noodles in 1295. There are, they say, tomb paintings that prove the Etruscans were making pasta 2000 years earlier north of Rome. Yet even this can’t overturn the evidence presented by the discovery of an overturned bowl of long millet-flour noodles on an archaeological dig in northwest China in 2002. Radiocarbon-dated at more than 4000 years old, it is the oldest pasta ever found. Ninth-century Arab writing talks extensively about ‘itriyya’ (dried pasta shapes), and it was probably the Arabs who introduced dried pasta to Sicily when…

croissant vs danish pastry Croissants have about 15 per cent more calories than Danish pastries (topped with custard and fruit) and 30 per cent more fat. They also tend to have less fibre and more salt. On the upside, croissants have about one-third of the sugar of Danish pastries; however, if you spread your croissant with jam, the sugar gap narrows. Portion size is everything: don’t forget that eating only half a pastry will halve the calories. winner: Danish pastry white flour vs wholemeal flour These two flours have similar calories, but wholemeal has three times the fibre of plain white flour, which supports digestive health. Wholemeal also has twice the potassium and three times the folate, as well as more calcium and protein. It’s easy to substitute in many…

Pumpkin soup is such a winter staple in my house. I love the rich sweetness you get when you first roast the pumpkin, and the chestnuts add an extra layer of flavour.

When choosing a pumpkin to refashion into a bowl, consider the style of the meal and mood you want to create. A plump golden nugget, similar to the one pictured, brings a wholesome country feel to the table. For a real retro look, try a speckled green Kent pumpkin, or go for a blue-grey Jarrahdale if you want its smooth pale skin to reflect a more sophisticated menu. Choose a large pumpkin for a serving bowl, or smaller ones to use in place of individual ramekins or soup bowls. step1 Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan forced. Use a large knife to cut 3-4cm from the top and use a spoon to scoop out the insides. step2 Scoop out the flesh until the shell is about 1cm thick. Line a baking…

“My take on pumpkin soup is anything but boring!” indulgent “This winter warmer is spiced with sweet nutmeg and crunchy toasted pepitas.” “ Here’s a filling winter soup without the guilt.” light “You don’t need cream or butter to make this soup delicious; add flavour with fresh turmeric and ginger.” Here’s a deliciously decadent twist on an old favourite. Sautéing the vegetables in duck fat adds richness to this classic soup, and to supercharge the flavour, chuck in a good hunk of parmesan rind – in true nose-to-tail style, I always keep mine for flavouring soups. For the nutmeg, it’s worth the effort to grate a whole nutmeg rather than using ground, as it adds amazing aroma and really lifts the crème fraîche. Finish the soup off perfectly with the…

“What’s your favourite comfort food? I have a long list,from big,steaming bowls of soup, cheesy melts and slow Sunday roasts, to mouth-watering curries. And I haven’t even started on sweet treats yet– anyone who knows me knows how much I love chocolate.” Comfort eating to me is all about food that tastes great and makes you feel good. Whatever sits at the top of your list, I bet there’s some wonderful memory attached. One of my ultimate comfort go-tos is roast chicken with all the trimmings. It harks back to my childhood when Sunday roast dinner was my favourite time of the week. I loved the fact that we all gathered around the table and talked about what was coming up or going on in our lives. This was the…

step 1 To prepare the chestnuts for cooking, trim the base from the chestnut. This will help the shells loosen as they cook. step 2 Simmering the chestnuts allows the shells to start to peel back, making them easier for you to peel. Discard the shells. step 3 Use a sharp knife to remove the outer hard shell as well as the papery husk – be careful as they will be hot! step 4 Make sure you cut the pumpkin and carrots into similar sized pieces so that they cook evenly. Don’t let them brown too much. step 5 After roasting, rest the bacon on a wire rack to allow the syrup to drain. This ensures the bacon is crisp enough to break into shards. step 6 Cook the shaved…
