Anthony Rose: Burgundy can offer an array both of delicious and charming reds'
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 04 Feb 2012
If you stick to buying your wine in supermarkets, chances are you haven't yet tripped over a great Burgundy. Burgundy is not something supermarkets tend to excel at. Its small-scale, artisan products can be pricey, infuriatingly inconsistent and difficult to pin down, but the idea that you have to be on a city slicker's bonus to afford it is wide of the mark.
Duck bitoks
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 04 Feb 2012
Bitoks are a kind of Russian patty-cum-meatball and are served with sour cream. The minced meat from a duck leg is perfect for this; ask your butcher to do this or mince it yourself.

FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 04 Feb 2012
Soft polenta is perfect with meaty dishes with a sauce. Vincotto is a condiment you can find in good Italian delis and is produced in the Apulia region in southern Italy, made by simmering local wine until it's thick and syrupy. You could use wine or port instead.
Divine duck: Mark Hix cooks with the most succulent of birds
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 04 Feb 2012
Now that the feathered game season is behind us, it's time to make good use of other tasty birds that we have access to all the year round. The standard of British duck farming has improved immensely over the years and gone are the days when ducks were only available as fatty, skinny specimens.
Dairy Crest sales up but milk price hits profits
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 03 Feb 2012
The cheese-maker Dairy Crest's like-for-like sales rose 2 per cent in the first three quarters of the year, despite a "challenging business environment". But the company warned that profits at its dairies business are being hit by the higher costs of buying milk and lower bulk cream values, which fell by 15.2 per cent last month to £1,230 a tonne.
Taste la difference! The Cordon Bleu culinary school has a lavish new London flagship
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 03 Feb 2012
Early on in Julia Child's autobiography, My Life in France, the California-born chef recalls a significant encounter in 1950, one that would change her life – and American cooking – for ever. "Out of curiosity, I dropped by L'Ecole du Cordon Bleu, Paris's famous cooking school," she writes. "There, professional chefs taught traditional French cooking to serious students from all over the world. After attending a demonstration one afternoon, I was hooked. The next class began in October. I signed myself up for a six-week intensive course, and smacked my lips in anticipation of the great day."

Petra Barran: 'I ate dog in the midst of a magic-mushroom situation'
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 29 Jan 2012
My earliest food memory...My third birthday party: I was obsessed with cheese, so my mum got three wheels and stacked them on top of each other to make a cake. I've got the biggest sweet tooth, so it's weird to think, at that age, that I was so keen on a non-cake cake.
Ginger-fried rice with egg pancake
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 29 Jan 2012
The secret with this rice is not to skimp on the ginger and garlic. You could just stir the eggs through but I think the little omelette ribbons are a nice touch. Add some leftover roast chicken and you've got dinner.
Enter the Dragon: Bill Granger marks Chinese New Year with a healthy but deliciously indulgent feast
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 29 Jan 2012
By the end of January we all need something to look forward to and the aromatic flavours of Chinese food are a welcome change, whether you've been comfort eating, dieting or both. Chinese New Year celebrations have been taking place all week and reach a peak with today's events, though perhaps we're more aware of this in our home than some, as our girls mark it at school; also, our eldest daughter was born during the previous Year of the Dragon, in 2000.
The Roux dynasty: Too many cooks? Mais non!
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 29 Jan 2012
We were all meant to be feeling the recession by now. And public sector workers, the nation's youth and high-street retailers certainly are. But the restaurant trade, usually the most sensitive bellwether of hard times, is proving remarkably resilient.
Buoyant Starbucks gets set to open franchise stores in UK
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 27 Jan 2012
The coffee giant Starbucks has revealed it will open its first franchise stores in the UK later this year, following one of its best December trading periods.
Warm up winter veg: Summery spices and a little imagination will transform your seasonal roots
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 27 Jan 2012
Some people talk about eating with the seasons as if it's an endurance test, with the winter months existing only to test our devotion to the yield of our pleasant pastures. It isn't true that the summer months provide all the best produce, but winter vegetables are perennially, and undeservedly, out of favour.
Culinary crossroads: Afghan cuisine blends its neighbours' flavours but has a charm of its own
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 27 Jan 2012
Often, the best meals take us completely by surprise. It was 2009 and election season in Afghanistan. I was among a group of reporters weaving through the Hindu Kush to see President Hamid Karzai stump for another term. After six hours on the road, our convoy lurched to a halt outside a run-down building at the junction of two dirt tracks. "Lunch," barked one of our gruff military escorts, and out we piled.
Dinner in a movie: Cinemagoers can get now get a three-course supper brought to their seats
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 27 Jan 2012
For years a trip to the cinema has been marked by the synthetic buttery smell of popcorn, for which cinema-goers queue for in the hundreds. But in an increasing number of places, the aroma of more upmarket fare is wafting in, while guests enjoy a personal touch by ordering from their seats.

Lamingtons
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 22 Jan 2012
Lamingtons are traditionally made with day-old leftover sponge cake. If the cake is too fresh, the lamingtons can crumble when you ice them.
Passion-fruit pavlova
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 22 Jan 2012
The Queen's chefs gave me a tip when we made this: to fold a little passion-fruit juice into the cream to flavour it.
What, no barbie? Celebrate Australia Day with Bill Granger's afternoon tea of Oz specials
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 22 Jan 2012
I was invited to Buckingham Palace recently to help the Royal Chef prepare for a reception ahead of the Queen's visit to Australia. My brief was quintessential Australian dishes, and I would probably have been deprived of my citizenship if I'd made anything other than pavlova for dessert; it's virtually our national dish (although New Zealanders might disagree!). Lamingtons also made the grade on the night – perfectly bite-sized chocolately and coconutty mouthfuls, instead of the doorstops that I remember fondly from the local baker.
José Pizarro: 'People ate anything they could get their hands on under Franco'
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 22 Jan 2012
My earliest food memory...Seeing my mum and grandmother cooking – although growing up as a boy in rural Spain at that time, you weren't supposed to be in the kitchen. If there's one thing that evokes childhood for me, it's partridge. My grandmother would cook it at Christmas, and I still remember the smell of the burning feathers.
Macadamia Anzac biscuits
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 22 Jan 2012
These biscuits were sent to the troops by their wives during the First World War as they have a long shelf life, but they are also delicious with a good tea or coffee.
Take root: Fresh ginger is perfect for creating healthy, refreshing dishes
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 21 Jan 2012
A lot of people are put off by the thought of ginger – maybe it's the powdered stuff that gives it a bad reputation. But fresh root ginger is quite another story and I always keep a piece in my fridge – it comes in useful for all sorts of things, from making a healing and refreshing tea to creating a fragrant Asian broth. Occasionally, you also see the fresh pink ginger in Asian supermarkets – this is very young ginger, before the skin forms, which is very tender and not too overpowering. This is the stuff that often gets pickled for serving with sushi and sashimi. Then there is crystallised ginger and preserved ginger in syrup, which have their uses in puddings and sweets.
Brandy snaps
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 21 Jan 2012
These are perfect with ice-cream. Start by making a circular template from an old plastic container (an ice-cream box, for instance). It needs to be about the size of a cereal bowl – it's handy if you leave a thumb-sized piece at the end to hold on to. Cut out a hole in the centre to about 1cm within the edge, and you have a template over which to spread the mix.
Chocolate ginger shards
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 21 Jan 2012
This a simple way to make after-dinner chocolates – and easier than truffles, too.
Gingered rhubarb compote
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 21 Jan 2012
Early season UK forced rhubarb has an affinity with ginger – with added sugar or honey you get an almost sweet and savoury flavour which in a compote like this makes a great accompaniment to ice-creams and sorbets, or simply with a spoonful of mascarpone or cream and a brandy snap biscuit (see overleaf).
Polpettine con Ricotta by Manuela Darling-Gansser
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 20 Jan 2012
800g minced lamb 300g fresh ricotta 50g freshly grated parmesan 100g unsalted butter 75ml good-quality virgin olive oil 1 large Spanish onion, finely chopped 3 cloves garlic, crushed 2 teaspoons ground cumin 1 teaspoon ground coriander 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 2 sprigs fresh rosemary, stalks discarded and leaves chopped Half a bunch flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped 100g pine nuts 60g fresh breadcrumbs 2 organic eggs Salt and ground black pepper
Your new secret ingredient: Rapeseed oil is set to overtake olive oil as the chefs' favourite
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 20 Jan 2012
It was originally grown to lubricate steam engines and even when culinary strains were developed and found to have outstanding health benefits, it was said the name would kill it stone-dead. But rapeseed oil has survived both its chequered industrial heritage and its monicker to become the latest must-have in the pantry.
Pork ragu with herb pangrattato
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 15 Jan 2012
The addition of cheese to this meltingly tender pork makes this pasta too rich, but the addition of pan-fried breadcrumbs, or poor man's Parmesan, gives this dish its savoury texture boost.
Crumbs of comfort: Bill Granger reveals how stale bread can be used in a range of delicious dishes
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 15 Jan 2012
The past 20 years have seen a revolution in bread. When I was growing up, the lighter and fluffier the bread, the better. While I still have time for a deliciously crisp baguette with butter and jambon, these days my heart lies with chewy, dense sourdough loaves.
Claire Ptak: I love sauerkraut; I think it's the elixir of life'
FEEDSPORTAL Sun, 15 Jan 2012
My earliest food memory...My first memory of consuming food is of eating wild blackberries where I grew up in northern California. But my first food-related memory is when a friend and I took all my mum's herbs and spices, put them into our sandbox and made mud pies. My mum was not that happy.
Fillet of beef with cavolo nero
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 14 Jan 2012
There are lots of winter leaves out there apart from our native cabbages and greens. Swiss chard is a great leaf, although it's often quite off-putting for the size of its stalks which shouldn't be thrown away, but just chopped and cooked separately from the leaves. It also comes in different colours and is sometimes sold as rainbow chard. Black cabbage or cavolo nero is another great winter leaf, but takes a fair bit of cooking.
Baked sweet potatoes with honey, chilli and rosemary
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 14 Jan 2012
After too many roast potatoes at Christmas you may well be up for something a little different – sweet potatoes are just the thing. They are great with grilled and roast meat or fish. Vegetarians will probably be happy to tuck into them just as they are.
Roasted radicchio with bacon and pangritata
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 14 Jan 2012
Radicchio is one of those winter salad leaves that goes in and out of vogue but personally I'm a fan, especially when it's grilled or roasted. The flavour changes once cooked and it makes a perfect starter or side dish.
Romanesco with taleggio and capers
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 14 Jan 2012
Now this is a weird-looking cauliflower, or is it a broccoli? No wonder romanesco's sometimes referred to as broccoflower.
The Delaunay, 55 Aldwych, London, WC2
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 14 Jan 2012
Simply walking into the Delaunay makes you feel you've found the perfect restaurant. Sited on the corner of Aldwych and Drury Lane, it hums with elegance. The rubicund doorman tips his top hat, a startlingly pretty Roedean-head-girl takes your coat and you enter a wide, welcoming, marble-floored space. To your right, a vast bar is lit up like a cathedral high altar; to your left is a line of tables for posers, chatterers, couples nursing cocktails. Riding on castors is a glass-topped trolley full of teatime cakes – millefeuille, Black Forest gâteau, sachertorte – in case someone fancies a sugar rush at 9pm. Beyond the grey pillars, you make out the dark, indefinably sexy interior where the serious eating goes on. Mein Gott, you think, das ist wunderbar.
Veggie might: Mark Hix explores a brave new world of delicious vegetables
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 14 Jan 2012
At this time of year, if we're honest, we're getting a bit bored of root vegetables and cabbage. But stay open-minded; there are lots of other interesting vegetables on the market that are as delicious as they are healthy. Beware of appearances, though. Some of the prettiest exotic and imported fruit and veg are best left on the shelf – you'll find they're disappointingly lacking in flavour. Others, though, have a fantastic taste yet for some reason aren't grown in the UK – they deserve a place in our kitchens.
Anthony Rose: 'Something is happening: it's called the tapas bar revolution'
FEEDSPORTAL Sat, 14 Jan 2012
I was propping up the bar at José's eponymous tapas bar in London's Bermondsey when before you can say Rozinante, the barman offered me two red wines to taste, a bobal and a mencia. Not rioja, please note, but two relatively obscure yet delicious Spanish reds each with their own distinctive personality. I couldn't resist a glass of Gramona, a cava that's so refreshing it almost single-handedly redefines Spanish sparkling wine.
Meet the real Neapolitan: How one Naples pizza chain is sticking firmly to tradition
FEEDSPORTAL Fri, 13 Jan 2012
The dish that has been called "almost certainly the most widely eaten food on the planet" originated in Naples, though Neapolitans would be aghast at the pizza toppings such as chicken tikka, ham and pineapple, and chicken pesto that have taken root in this country. Back in the home of the pizza, people keep it simple. Most go for the Marinara, topped with tomatoes, garlic, oregano and olive oil (with the option of a few anchovy fillets) or the Margherita, topped with tomatoes, mozzarella, basil and olive oil.
Wine styles of the rich and famous: The Wiltshire 'wine mine' that houses the finest vintages
