As the northern hemisphere slips excitedly into Spring those down under are
coming to the end of their summer. Time I think to have a look a the New Zealand and Australian food blog scene to see
what they are up to -
Tomatom seems to be having a ball blogging
across Vietnam while
Chocolate in Context seems to be
enjoying to the full the renaissance of chocolate in Melbourne. "currently awash in new flavors, new techniques,
and the general acceptance of chili as a hot chocolate flavoring".
More chocolate over at Esurientes
with a delicious looking
Chocolate Cherry
Cake. An Easter flavour at Cook Almost Anything Once with some delightful looking
Hot Cross Buns. Certainly
look a little better than mine (to be in a post later today)! Some interesting looking
Yoghurt and Pistachio
cakes, with recipe, at A Few of My Favourite Things. Can't say I have seen fresh pistachios around these here parts
though.
Savoury rules over at The Laughing Gastronome with
Pork Rilletts. Not something I have ever
thought of making is rillets but these sound easy to make so I might just give it a go. Finally Bron is having fun with
potato gnocchi which are, again, something I have never been tempted to make.
