Hot Tips
Rosella champagne
A native rosella flower (now commonly sold in jars) can be slotted inside a champagne glass, and then the champagne is poured over the top. This uniquely Australian addition not only looks great, but the sweet syrup enhances the flavour of the beverage.

Casserole Dishes
Used extensively in French cooking, they should be heavy based with a lid that is also ovenproof.
