DISH.CO.NZ DISH MAGAZINE DISHMAGNZ @DISHMAGAZINE With beautiful produce around, it’s time for one of our favourite issues of the year, when we celebrate the flavours and simplicity of Italian food. While New Zealand is geographically distant from Italy, there is much about the style of Italian cuisine that Kiwis love to embrace – taking fresh, ripe ingredients and treating them simply to let the flavours sing. There’s also the love of a long, lingering meal, enjoyed with family and friends – and while the weather allows it – outdoors, if possible. With this in mind, food editor Claire Aldous has…

Broccoli doesn’t win everyone’s heart but those who are smitten love it for being more than just a year-round plate-filling green vegetable. When lightly cooked broccoli has enough flavour and texture to grace a plate unadorned, though in my mind it is improved with a drizzle of olive oil or a spoonful of melted butter. Broccoli likes spices, herbs and citrus and it likes pungency, so there are endless possibilities. Try it blanched and tossed with a fruity extra virgin olive oil and plenty of garlic. Or use butter instead. Build on these flavours with a little grated nutmeg and black pepper, or flecks of dried chilli, and smother the lot in grated parmesan. Once you perfect this, you may never look beyond it. It’s utterly gorgeous, and even more…

Spicy Beef and Chorizo Ragu and Zoodles Spiralizers are fast becoming a regular kitchen gadget, with ingredients like zucchini and carrots being turned into zoodles or caroodles to replace wheat noodles. I like to fold the uncooked noodles through the hot sauce so they retain a lovely fresh crunch. 2 cured chorizo sausages, roughly chopped 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 onion, finely chopped 400 grams good-quality beef mince 2 teaspoons sweet smoked paprika pinch chilli flakes 2 cloves garlic, crushed 2 tablespoons tomato paste ½ cup red wine 400-gram tin crushed Italian tomatoes ½ cup water 2 teaspoons brown sugar sea salt and black pepper To serve spiralized zucchini noodles (I used 2 zucchini per person) parmesan for shaving handful fresh basil Put the chorizo in a food processor and…

All Day Cafe BY STUART MCKENZIE As we’re probably all aware by now, cafe culture is huge both here and in Australia. We love nothing more to tuck into eggs bene or french toast in the morning or, say, a delicious savoury tart or tasty salad for a midday pick-me-up. This book, by the owner of popular Melbourne cafe, South of Johnston (or Sojo), Stuart McKenzie, aims to recreate all those lovely food memories in your own home. The casual but delicious fare, from breakfast to dinner is split into seasons. From the “Summer” chapter, we’re ready to tuck into Moroccan Fried Chicken with a Date Orange Salad and then try our hand at a cheeky Raspberry Friand with Clotted Cream for afters. As autumn ramps up, the cravings are…

Emiko Davies knows a thing or two about the distinctiveness of food cultures around the world; she has lived in several different places herself. Born in Canberra into a diplomatic family, Emiko spent her formative years in China – with holidays in Japan, where her mother was born, before heading off to study in Rhode Island in the US, and later, Florence in Italy. There, she met her Tuscan husband, Marco, a sommelier, and the couple have a 4-year-old daughter, Mariu. A few years ago they shifted for six months to Porto Ercole on la Costa d’Argento, Tuscany’s Silver Coast. The unique and lesser-known cuisine of this area prompted Emiko to write her second cookbook (Florentine was published last year). She named her book Acquacotta after one of the most…

Quinoa Pizza with Shaved Pumpkin, Mozzarella and Cherry Tomatoes (gf) I also make this base into individual-sized portions and serve it unadorned to accompany curries and soups. ¼ cup white quinoa, rinsed and drained ½ cup water ¾ cup quinoa flour ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika 1 teaspoon sea salt freshly ground pepper ½ teaspoon baking powder 1 large egg, size 7 ¼ cup milk Topping 300 grams butternut pumpkin, peeled and seeded 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 cloves garlic, crushed ¼ cup mascarpone ¼ cup tomato relish (I used Maison Therese Chilli Tomato) 1 ball fresh mozzarella in whey, well drained 8 cherry tomatoes, halved parmesan, for grating Preheat the oven to 180°C fan bake.

Dark Chocolate and Cointreau Panna Cotta (gf) While gelatine is the traditional setting agent, I also love using agar-agar to make these gorgeous desserts. 500ml cream 1 teaspoon vanilla paste 3 tablespoons caster sugar ¼ teaspoon agar-agar 50 grams dark chocolate, chopped 1 tablespoon Cointreau To serve mascarpone Grilled Apricots, recipe below chopped pistachios Heat 450ml of the cream, vanilla and sugar over a low heat until hot but not boiling, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Put the agar-agar in a bowl and gradually whisk in the remaining cream to make a smooth paste Whisk this into the hot cream and slowly bring to the boil, whisking constantly. Simmer gently for 1 minute, stirring constantly then take off the heat and whisk in the chocolate until smooth and well combined.…

Somewhere, among rows upon rows of grapevines in the Barossa Valley, there’s a robust plant with my name on it. Well, beside it, more accurately – on a plaque. Which means it’s possible that one day as I tuck into a glass of Jacob’s Creek Shiraz, I could be drinking my namesake. Or it could be the fruit from a vine named after any number of visitors who have travelled to this historic winemaking spot. We’re at the original homestead of William Jacob, after whom that now-famous creek was named. It’s extremely hot – the kind of weather that results in luscious South Australian wines, known the world over. And as the sun bears down, ripening those little purple globes, 40 of us from 13 different countries are donning our…

Always follow one set of measures in a recipe. Do not mix them up. Dish uses: A fan-forced oven unless otherwise specified Large eggs (No.7) Level spoons and cup measurements Liquids are always measured in a jug and dry ingredients in measuring cups.

In hindsight, it seems almost inevitable that Kelly Gibney would end up writing and photographing a cookbook centred around wholefoods. The food bug bit her early: “I would play cooking shows as a kid, and my sister would be my assistant,” she says. “I would make macaroni cheese or stuffed potatoes – I’ve always loved food. And I’ve always had a huge appetite.” Then, throughout her teenage years, she was vegan and at that time the food options for this lifestyle weren’t as plentiful as they are today. “There wasn’t coconut yoghurt or all these incredible things you have now. It was falafels and hashbrowns. So you had to learn. My girlfriends and I cooked a lot.” After art school, where she studied photography, and a four-year stint in Melbourne,…

NOT SURE IF YOUR RIESLING WILL TASTE SWEET OR DRY? Check the back label – many will carry the International Riesling Scale which will tell you where it sits. Failing that, check the alcohol content – if it’s lower than 12% the wine will taste sweeter. Anyone in the wine trade will tell you if they had a dollar for every time wine industry folk lamented that people don’t drink enough riesling, they’d be slithering around like Smaug the dragon on his hoard of gold inside Lonely Mountain (or some other “I’m ridiculously rich” simile). Oddly, the grape that’s considered one of the world’s most noble, still struggles to gain traction on mainstream taste buds. We’re drinking more chardonnay, sauvignon blanc and pinot gris than ever, yet in the five…

GIN SLINGERS With more new spirits brands popping up each month than you can shake a swizzle stick at, it’s nice to know which ones sit on the quality side of the fence. Simon Redpath and his team at Karven Spirits have been doing a superb job of crafting pure, smooth spirits sourced from a still, fashioned from an old glasshouse furnace, located in a demolished glasshouse on their old Riverhead farm. All the botanicals for their awardwinning gin; manuka honeyinfused, barrel-rested Starka Vodka; and now a bianco-style vermouth (made with a blend of North Island grapes), are picked fresh from the gardens around the distillery and from pockets around the Puhoi district. “We are a New Zealand botanically led brand that focus on natural organic ingredients (where possible) of…

It takes 14 minutes to walk from the Spanish Steps to the Pantheon, longer if there’s a delay. Which, on this foggy November day, there is. At Caffé Greco, one of Europe’s oldest cafes, a fresh batch of cannoli, the Sicilian confection of buttery pastry and rich ricotta, has just been pulled from the oven. I join the queue that snakes down Rome’s Via Condotti, unwilling to pass up an opportunity to follow in the footsteps of intellectuals such as Goethe and Gogol who sipped strong, dark espresso and carb-loaded on delicious pastries here. It might make me late for my date with the nearly 2000-year-old church with the hole in its roof, but gosh it’s worth it Few people on the planet care as much about what they eat…
