EDITOR’S LETTER

Wow, just over five years ago I joined this wonderful title to take the helm, and what a magnificent ride it’s been. And while I have only been with dish for a quarter of its life, in that time we have taken enormous strides forward. I have had the pleasure of working with some immensely talented people, most significantly our very own food editor Claire Aldous, who is now so much more than a colleague, she is a friend. Together, we relish our jobs of bringing you, issue after issue, Aotearoa’s most loved food title. And so, it seems fitting that we have prepared a birthday extravaganza of content and recipes, so that you can join us in our celebration. We kick off by asking six friends of dish 20 quick-fire…

PLATED PERFECTION

Other inspirations were “hazy, gloomy ethereal artworks and films. Those inspirations in the hands of designers Kirsty Fletcher and Giles Lawson, directors of Melbourne’s The Rexroth Mannasmann Collective, are anything but gloomy. Kirsty says most finishes in the kitchen were chosen by the property owners for their mutability in relation to light sources and other, adjacent colours. “The whole house was about creating moody atmospheric spaces and we initially struggled to find a paint colour for the kitchen that had some life to it and wasn’t overwhelmed by other, adjacent dark surfaces.” The original plan for the high, steeply angled kitchen ceiling was to paint it black, but the angles and expanse of the space meant getting a good finish was tricky. Instead the owners opted for Resene Innocence. Not only did it work…

Claire Aldous Food Editor @clairealdous Q Where have you eaten out recently and enjoyed? A On a recent trip to Sydney we ate at the Promenade Bondi Beach, which is in the original pavilion right on the edge of the beach. Perfect for people-watching and sipping on a cocktail or wine while trying to decide what to order off their Italianish menu covering off fresh seafood, pizza, seasonal salads and one of the best char-grilled steaks I’ve ever had. Q Tell us about something you’ve cooked this month. A We love chicken thighs and I recently baked some in a sauce of nduja, tomato paste, diced fresh lemon, garlic and maple syrup. It was super delicious with the tart/sweet flavours and went well with a big bowl of twice cooked, crispy roasted potatoes. Q What recipe are…

1 Claire Aldous, Food Editor Maison Vauron, Newmarket: It’s long been paradise for lovers of authentic French food and the delicatessen stocks the largest selection of French cheeses, charcuterie and delicacies in New Zealand along with their unique wine cellar at the top of the stairs. A favourite pastime is sitting in the café listening to the French-speaking customers while indulging in one of my favourite dishes, Saucisson de Canard – their homemade duck sausage with Agria potato pavé, a red wine sauce and perfectly poached eggs! In summer, a black coffee and fruit pastry while sitting on the sidewalk is heaven. mvauron.co.nz 2 Monique Bulman, Publisher Services Manager The Muriwai Deli, Muriwai: Located in the 100-year-old Muriwai lodge, it serves as a bakery in the morning and bar some evenings.

WINE FOR ANY OCCASION

PROSECCO Prosecco hails from the northeast of Italy and is made from Glera grapes. Pop open an aroma of granny smith apples and raisins, and on the palate it’s slightly sweet and frothy, with flavours of apple sauce and white grapes, ending with a crisp lime finish. Prosecco is made by fermenting the base wine in pressurised stainless-steel tanks, which is quicker and more cost-efficient than the traditional bottle fermentation used for Champagne. This process creates a fruity, easy-drinking sparkling wine. Prosecco is perfect for any occasion: brunch, lunch, or as a refreshing pre-dinner drink. Just chill, pop, and pour! PLATTER MATCH: Serve with a board of mild cheese, such as edam, gouda, havarti or camembert, served with roasted almonds, peanuts, cashews and quince paste. MAIN DISH: Pair with pan-fried snapper, gurnard or…

Bouillabaisse (Bouillabaisse) A generously flavoured fisherman soup from the town of Marseille, bouillabaisse makes the most of the local catch. It was originally a pauper’s broth, and the crayfish suggested here is not obligatory; it just shows that you can make a fancy dish out of it, fit for a dinner party. The selection of fish, crustaceans, and shellfish may vary, but it’s good to achieve a balance between robust rock fish and delicate varieties (always be careful not to overcook the latter). It is usually served as a main dish with toast and rouille, a kind of garlicky red pepper mayonnaise.

As a cruise ‘first-timer’ this adventure was full of new experiences. From the moment I stepped on board the Avalon Waterways ship “Avalon Tapestry II”, it was clear that at least half the guests onboard were repeat customers, but for me it was all brand new. So, what is it like to fly halfway around the world to Paris and take to the river with 95 (up to 150) guests plus crew? It is a journey of discovery – apt given the name of this particular cruise was ‘Active and Discovery on the Seine’ – and one where, as the days slip by, friendships are made, new sights seen, information learned, and a great deal of fun and laughter enjoyed.

CRAFTING GREAT GIN isn’t easy. There’s nowhere to hide should things go wrong. But when they go right, a great gin can be a remarkable experience. Three years ago, our first gin panel attracted 70 local entries, and we thought that was a monster effort. Could there really be 70 New Zealand gins? Our next call-out had judges sniffing and sipping their way through 108 entries blind and under competition conditions. One. Hundred. And. Eight! And there were more that, due to late arrival, didn’t make the judging table. Wow. How incredible is it that these many styles of gin are being crafted in Aotearoa with many already winning prestigious awards worldwide? The history of gin dates to the mid-15th century in Holland, where they experimented with distilling herbs, spices and…

TAP DANCING Petone has got lots of stuff. It has a Settlers Museum, a shelly beach to stroll on, yummy water flowing from Te Puna Wai Ora (the spring of life) on the corner of Buick and Jackson Streets and now, it has a groovy new but ‘derelict’ tap room by those responsible for Abandoned Brewing. With walls tattooed with graffiti, covertly finessed by Wellington street artist, Pork, Abandoned is housed in a former factory where beloved Petone deli, Scheckter’s, took pride of place in speciality food grocer, Ontrays. While Abandoned Brewery also has a footprint with its taproom in Porirua, owner and founder Tim Ward had always wanted Abandoned to get back to its roots, where it first originated on the other side of the Haywards. “We see this as a kind…

When dish Editor Sarah Tuck suggested I write a piece musing on the most significant changes we’ve seen in the drinks industry since 2004, I did what any self-respecting procrastinator would do and parked it until right before the deadline. Pinpointing drinks trend markers for the last 20 years should be an easy gig. Surely, the starting point would be when wine and beer became available in supermarkets, and the drinking age was lowered to 18, right? Wrong. Supermarkets in New Zealand have been able to sell wine since 1990 (34 years ago) and beer since 1999, which, incidentally, was also when the drinking age was lowered to 18. That was 25 years ago. How about RTDs? That juggernaut of a drinking trend has only been around for 20 years,…

The Caker’s Almond Butter and Raspberry Cake

The Caker’s Almond Butter and Raspberry Cake For me, this is the ultimate celebration cake because it’s simply my favourite cake, and it’s the one I’ve made myself for my birthday the most over the last 10 years.

It’s also a real crowd-pleaser, which is important when it comes to sharing a celebration cake. Topped with a blanket of fresh raspberries and a few fresh flowers, this is all it needs to look chic and decadent. Here I’ve shared the recipe for a cake that will serve 12, so you can easily multiply the quantities to make it however big you like. The cake in the photo is the…
