Hot Tips

Goose fat and roast potatoes

Rough up the edges of parboiled potatoes by tossing them around the colander (like you would bounce a tennis ball on a racket) this helps create a crunchy exterior. Add them to the roasting dish with a couple of tablespoons of duck or goose fat, rolling in the fat and season generously.

Glossary

Basil

Basil (basilico) is an Italian herb used to flavour sauces, salads and added to pizza after cooking.

James Squire was Australia's first brewer. Soon after his arrival in Australia as a convict he stole a quantity of herbs known as horehound - the closest thing to hops he could find to brew the colony's first beer. Folklore has it the judge ordered 150 lashes... and 2 barrels of ale.
