Dish Issue 80 October/November 2018의 목차

Spring is often the time to take stock of our lives and commit to a ‘reset’ – to refreshing and revitalising everything: from what we eat and cook, how we exercise to what time we go to bed. At Dish we believe there is no prescriptive or right way to do this, rather the best way is with delicious food that celebrates the new season’s flavours. In Bake Free (page 70) Dish Food Editor Claire Aldous busts some myths around gluten-free baking and proves how delicious allergy-friendly goodies can be. In Claire’s hands the humble omelette gets a makeover (page 96) and she showcases the versatility of chicken in everything from soup to sandwiches (page 48). If you’re not already a big fan of fermented food then Kelly Gibney’s recipes…

Why not celebrate the arrival of the new season with a spring clean of arguably the most important space in the house? Fridge clean-outs can be devilish things – mountains of produce catapulted into the bin, dirty jars swiftly dumped into the recycling and containers of leftovers hurtled out of sight. I urge you to take a fresh approach to your fridge – make Sunday a regular “fridge pie/pizza/soup” day to use up leftovers and make an effort to freeze odds and ends of items like yoghurt and milk in ice trays to throw into smoothies in the morning. TO EAT: Sad celery A character all too familiar for many, sad Mr Celery doesn’t have a lot going for him at first glance. But give him a second and third…

“Naturally you care about where your food is grown” You’ll be familiar with Dole’s top-quality bananas – but were you aware we’re a socially conscious bunch too? We know our consumers are increasingly savvy about environmental issues and sustainable practices, so naturally you care about where your food is grown. Which is why at Dole New Zealand we’re proud that all of our pineapples, Ecuadorian bananas and Bobby bananas from the Philippines bear the Rainforest Alliance Certified seal. What does this mean? Well, it shows we’re not only serious about providing you with top-quality produce, but we’re equally committed to securing healthy conditions for the people who grow it. With deforestation in the Amazon happening at a rate of 80 trees every four seconds, sustainable goods have never been more…

Tikka Chicken Drumsticks with Crunchy Seeded Topping The drumsticks need to be cooked on a lower heat to prevent the spicy crust burning before the chicken is fully cooked through. The yoghurt needs to be started one day ahead and the chicken is also best left in the marinade overnight. 1 tablespoon lime juice¼ cup tikka masala spice paste½ cup coconut cream¼ cup roasted cashew nuts12 chicken drumsticks TO SERVE Saffron Yoghurt, see recipe belowCrunchy Seeded Topping, see recipe below coriander for garnish Preheat the oven to 160°C fan bake. Process all the ingredients, except the chicken, in a food processor until smooth. Tip into a bowl. Slash the drumsticks a couple of times then rub the paste all over, pushing it into the slashes.

Crunchy Miso Fish Tacos with Kimchi Mayo Kimchi is a traditional fermented Korean side dish made largely with cabbage. Its big, bold flavour is an excellent way to spice up condiments like the mayonnaise in these fish tacos. Miso (also a fermented product) is the base of the marinade for the fish. I absolutely adore this dish – the flavours are surprising and incredibly delicious. FILLING 2 garlic cloves, crushed1 tablespoon finely grated ginger¼ cup red miso paste1 tablespoon light olive oil4 tablespoons warm water1 tablespoon brown sugar1 teaspoon sesame oil¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper½ teaspoon hot smoked paprika600 grams firm white fish, cut into 4cm chunks¾ cup tapioca flour (can also use regular flour) KIMCHI MAYO ½ cup kimchi, finely chopped¾ cup good quality mayonnaise12 soft corn tortillas (can also…

Marlborough moves to safeguard its sav, Māori winemakers join forces, and a low-alcohol red that’s just what the doctor ordered – YVONNE LORKIN rounds up the latest from the world of drinks. TUKU FOR TOMORROW Tuku, the first Māori winemakers’ collective, was launched in July. “It’s a collective of like-minded people who think we can achieve more with our businesses and our chosen careers working together instead of individually,” said Tuku chairman Steve Bird. The group was formed after members realised it would be more cost-effective to collaborate when showcasing wines, both overseas and locally, and that they could share ideas. It’s made up of te Pā Family Vineyards, Tiki Wine & Vineyards, Bird Wines, Kuru Kuru Wines and Ostler Wine, family companies that all whakapapa back to specific waka:…

Most people like carrots and beans, but mention broccoli and eyebrows often shoot up. What is it that turns people off broccoli? I think it’s the pong – that sulphury odour broccoli emits when it’s no longer fresh, or when it’s overcooked, kept covered after cooking, (Pawh! That’s a bad one), or slowly reheated. Broccoli is chilled in icy water immediately after harvesting to lower its core temperature and prevent it wilting and discolouring. When buying broccoli it is your job to give it the same love; get it into the fridge as soon as possible, but be aware that it is ethylene-sensitive; this means other items in your fridge producing ethylene can affect its freshness, so best to cook it as soon as you can. Lemon adds a nice…

“A fabulous night that showcased our iconic wines with a wonderful group of people, all perfectly matched to a delicious menu,” is how Caroline Brown, public relations manager for Brown Brothers, described the Dine With Dish event that also included Taylors Wines at Auckland’s popular Euro Bar & Restaurant. The six-course Garden and Paddock to Plate menu was designed and executed by Euro and Nourish Group executive chef Gareth Stewart, with each of the dishes matched with a special selection of wines from the two Australian wineries. “I was excited to work with Dish again and have the opportunity to showcase the humble vegetable in each course,” Gareth said. The evening kicked off with Jerusalem artichoke “cheekily stuffed with Te Mana lamb tartare, topped with artichoke purée and finished with…

It’s 9 o’clock on a miserably wet, Sunday night. Fortysomething weary travellers are parked up on the tarmac at Auckland International Airport, restlessly waiting for a flight that’s now delayed six hours. Crammed on a muggy shuttle with a handful of equally disgruntled, pint-sized passengers – a tropical-strength cocktail, white sandy beaches and tepid, turquoise waters couldn’t feel further away. Fast-forward to Fiji, the glittering crossroads of the South Pacific – a mere three hours by plane from Auckland. The island paradise draws hordes of travellers every year and enjoys an influx of sun-seeking families come school holiday season, thanks not only to its proximity but also to its kid-friendly reputation, endless activities and balmy temperatures. DESTINATION DINING It’s no secret that Fiji ticks a whole lot of boxes, but…

Notes for cooks To ensure successful results in cooking, we recommend you invest in accurate measuring tools – measuring cups and spoons and a measuring jug are essential, and electronic scales are particularly useful as they weigh accurately in both imperial and metric. Always follow one set of measures in a recipe. Do not mix them up. WE USE: Large eggs (No 7). Level spoons and cup measurements. Liquids are always measured in a jug and dry ingredients in measuring cups. NB: One tablespoon is 15ml (the Australian tablespoon is 20ml). Food name equivalents We all use cookbooks and magazines from around the world. These are some of the more common ingredients which have differing names. baking paper parchment paper/silicone paper beetroot beets cannellini beans white kidney beans capsicum bell…

2016 O:TU MARLBOROUGH SINGLE VINEYARD SAUVIGNON BLANC 2016 WITH WEST COAST WHITEBAIT FRITTER “The power of the whitebait, softness of the egg and exuberance of the lemon, fennel and chilli combine wonderfully with the liveliness of the fruit and subtle texture within the Sauvignon Blanc.” 2016 O:TU RESERVE HAWKE’S BAY SYRAH 2016 WITH DRY RED CURRY OF HAPUKA “Our Vietnamese-style curry utilises the delicate flesh of the hapuka to moderate the intensity of the spice. This is mimicked in the wine, where gorgeous red fruits and luscious tannin regulate the intensity of pepperiness.”…

My family’s Jamaican, and this jerk spice rub is the combined work of two of my aunties, Wendy and Sonia. For me, the flavours conjure up memories of the Notting Hill Carnival – sunshine, reggae music and the smoky heat of food cooked over charcoal. Traditionally jerk spices are used with pork or chicken – I’ve used poussin (baby chickens) here, for the tenderness of the meat and because there’s something nice about getting a whole bird to yourself. You’ll need to begin this recipe the day before, to allow time to marinate the poussin. I love the word “succotash”, it reminds me of Daffy Duck. Usually a succotash contains corn with the beans; here it’s a celebration of delicious spring greens. Jerk-spiced spatchcock poussin with spring vegetable succotash 4…

What is it? It’s a cross betweeen broccoli, or Calabrese broccoli, and Chinese sprouting broccoli. Why eat it? It’s pricier than broccoli, but there’s no waste. Plus it’s less dense so you’re less likely to overcook it, releasing that awful whiff. Can I grow it? Yes, it’s easy. You can buy ‘tender stems’ broccoli, which produces multiple shoots; they’re gorgeous, sweet and crunchy.…
