  • Domaine de L'Arlot bread

    This superb bread recipe comes from Domaine de l’Arlot in Burgundy (France) where it is made every day by the lady of the house, Madame de Smet. Madame, as you might imagine, entertains a lot of visitors to the highly acclaimed Domaine and needs food preparation to be as easy as pouring great wine. 

    Joan Lawrence of Aurum Wines in Central Otago, whose son Brook worked at Domaine de l’Arlot for a time and returned home clutching the recipe, is the source.

  • Roulade w' ocean trout, tomato & rocket

    Looks glamorous but a roulade is surprisingly easy to make

    If you can make a good béchamel sauce and beat egg whites, it is a breeze. A roulade is basically a flat soufflé rolled up with tasty ingredients. So, while you’ve learned how to make a roulade you’ll also be able to produce a first class soufflé. The procedure is identical; only the method of cooking varies.
