  • The Right BBQ - The perfect way to cook your week-ends away!  By : Best Deals
    The best chefs know how to provide for large groups, and the first image that comes to mind for them is the barbeque. That means they know how to feed parties of fifty people or more: with giant cuts of beef and pork, whole grilled salmon, a ton of chicken, and if that doesn’t suffice, more beef. The best barbeque chefs are also smart. They’ll manage to keep their house immaculate without the nasty after-odors of cooking (and barbeque, as wondrous as it may taste, is akin to a greasy-spoon diner). In order to cook like a caterer, then, a chef can custom-build a kitchen to be a social room by moving the real cooking equipment outside.

  • Is the wine vintage important?  By : Ian Love
    Is vintage really important in this day and age? When winemakers can use technology to create good, yes, as good products in undistinguished years, does vintage matter? No, it really doesn’t.

Grapes subjected to this treatment adopt the same level of quality of the best year vintages. Some would argue that vintage wines are superior in quality, but the only benefit to old vintages as opposed to modern methods is sentimentality.

  • Matching Food and Wine  By : Ian Love
    There are two basic approaches to food and wine matching – like-with-like and contrasts. The like-with-like approach is all about striking harmony between flavours and textures of the food and wine. A useful trick is to think of food and wine combinations in terms of “weight”. Classify a dish as light, medium or full bodied, then team it with its wine counterpart. A lemon tart with a Riesling or Semillon Chardonnay will deliver tangy citrus flavours to the palate, while a full bodied Australian Shiraz would team beautifully with roasted lamb or beef. Making the ideal partnership also depends not just on the food itself, but how it’s prepared. When matching like with like light lemony sauces on fish or chicken calls for the gentle citrus flavours of Riesling, Semillon Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay, while spicy, peppery Grenache Shiraz would be perfect to accompany a subtly curried dish or peppery stew.

  • Matching Wine With Food  By : Ian Love
    There are a few important things to consider, if you like combining wine with your food. Always combine sweet wine with food that is on the sweeter side, acidic wine with salty food, red wine goes best with red meat and white wine is a fine accompaniment with white meat. It is believed that you must drink the wine produced in that country to accompany the food that is locally prepared. Aussies are known for their barbeques, and hence any red wine produced in their own country would be ideal. Like the Merlot brand of wine would be perfect to make that meal taste every so divine. Or that ever so perfect Aussie Shiraz, to go well with roast beef or char-grilled tuna. Your barbeque wine has to be strong enough to stand against the strong odors and flavors of a barbequed meal, without losing its identity. It has to be able to hold its own.
