Cooking on the Bone order quantity
  +   -
 
NZ$ 49.99 each
Paperback
Author: Jennifer McLagan
Poultry, meat, game and fish all taste better when cooked on the bone but too often today flavour is sacrificed for speed and convenience. A whole roast chicken always beats a boneless chicken breast for flavour, as does a whole baked fish rather than a fillet. So in this, her first cookbook, and certain to become the essential reference guide, Jennifer McLagan teaches home cooks the secrets of bones.
Each chapter includes recipes for stocks, soups, ribs, legs, shins and tails, as well as detailed diagrams of the various cuts for front, middle and back ends. There is a wealth of recipes to discover: from the familiar rack of lamb, roast chicken and spare ribs to new classics such as Osso Bucco with Fennel and Blood Orange Sauce and Seven Hour Leg of Lamb with Cumin, Turnips and Green Olives.

Cuisine Nicoise order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 49.99 each
Paperback
Author: Jaques Medecin
Nice has been part of France only since 1860 - so it is not surprising that its cuisine has no particular affinity with the traditions of the French cuisine.

The Niçois cook believes in simplicity, not disguise, eschews rich sauces, nourishes a penchant for fish, fruit and vegetables and appreciates the importance of careful, subtle seasoning.

Jacques Médecin - mayor of Nice and a formidable cook in his own right - offers an infectiously enthusiastic guide to the cookery of his city. As well as explaining how to make genuine salade niçoise (that most betrayed of Niçois dishes), he lures the reader into the wonderful enticing world of stockfish, tians, panisses, socca, rabbit with fruit in aspic, stewed pork with capers and gherkins, ganses and Christmas bread.

Indian Bible order quantity

Paperback
Author: Penguin Books Australia
Fragrant & wholesome dishes from India

Indian cuisine is probably best known for its hot curries, but it is in fact amazingly varied. Dishes range from mildly spiced to fiery, creamy to fried or grilled, sour to sweet – but always with a carefully selected blend of aromatic spices and herbs.

A typical Indian meal is likely to consist of several main dishes, plus a range of extras: pakoras or samosas, rice or bread, salads, yoghurt dishes, chutneys and pickles. While dishes may include meat, seafood or poultry, we can thank India's large vegetarian population for the many delicious options based on lentils, seasonal vegetables and paneer.

Indian Bible contains more than 130 easy, authentic recipes. There are curries of every kind, as well as plenty of other meat, seafood and vegetable dishes. You'll also find snacks and soups, rice and bread, desserts, drinks and accompaniments. This is nourishing, satisfying food, designed for ... more
