d so hard i had to wring my wet clothes out when i got home and that was after sitting in the car for an hour because the weather wreaked havoc on the traffic harrumph tangelo and cinnamon sorbet yum but today the sun has come out and it seems like the long weekend might even be fine ish which means it might be more appropriate to tell you about the three ways with frozen treats column i wrote two weeks ago here it is for your reading pleasure bonus points if you can identify the model in the photo have a great weekend everyone may the sun shine on you wherever you are labels diy good things guilty pleasures icecream pudding recipes summer wellington posted by unknown at 19 56 2 comments thursday january 19 2017 three ways with picnic food there s a long weekend on the horizon and though the weather is unlikely to be playing ball i m still hopeful that there will be enough sunshine for a picnic photo ross giblin fairfax media this week s three ways with has a trio of picnic friendly recipes for you to try if all else fails eat them while sitting on a picnic blanket in the lounge add lashings of ginger beer and some spy catching for a frisson of famous five style fun happy weekend labels baking eggs family picnic summer wellington posted by unknown at 20 54 2 comments wednesday january 18 2017 bone broths of contention news that popsicles made from bone broth are summer s coolest new treat has made me feel decidedly hot under the collar if you re slow to catch on a sydney cafe has started marketing brothsicles made from frozen beef broth coconut milk and raspberries cacao or mango mmmm mmmm want one i guess it s no business of mine if people want to go around sucking on frozen beef broth tszuj ed up with raw cacao and raspberries what i really object to is this wide eyed wonder about bone broth in general if you believe everything you read this magic elixir can cure cancer make your nails grow longer and improve your sex life there are many reports about its supposed beauty benefits too but i found reading these breathless stories only deepened my frown lines what everyone seems to have forgotten if indeed they ever knew in the first place is that bone broth is essentially good old fashioned stock dressed up in the emperor s new clothes don t start me i m not sure where this fervour came from but now it s hard to find a newly published cookbook or wellness blog that isn t overflowing with evangelical praise for the kind of thing that metaphorical thrifty grandmothers have been making for decades whereas bone broth is so cool they make ice blocks out of it there is nothing fashionable about stock no one except ordinary boring old cooks ever gets excited about a good stock s potential and they re unlikely to be wondering if it s better for your skin than botox ordinary boring old cooks love stock because it adds depth and flavour to whatever you ve put it in ordinary boring old cooks know that a proper slow simmered stock gives a certain je ne sais quoi to a soup stew or sauce that s why i spent several hours yesterday wrestling a giant ham bone into my largest stockpot i added a couple of onions a few sticks of celery and several carrots then filled the whole thing to the brim with water i covered the pot and let it simmer away for about three hours while i did a whole lot of uncool things like washing and work and gardening at the end the house smelled like ham not entirely sure if this is a good thing i d boosted my bone health by doing some weight bearing lifting in the garden and i m sure the smug satisfaction of doing such a thrifty kitchen task had given me an enviable glow best of all i now have three litres of stock in the freezer to use in the winter perhaps i should turn it into a kind of granita and sell it at a pop up down in the village ham bone granita want some in the meantime if you want a truly delicious frozen treat i wholeheartedly recommend the dr feelgood range of icepops these are without question the most delicious ice creams i ve come across this summer the fact that they re bone broth free could have something to do with that posted by unknown at 16 50 7 comments wednesday january 11 2017 in bloom ricotta stuffed nasturtiums today s three ways with column is all about foraged foods with a particular focus on what you can forage within the perimeter of your garden unless you re lucky enough to be a marine forager image ross giblin fairfax media find out how to make these plus a pesto to use up all those pesky weeds here posted by unknown at 16 45 no comments monday january 09 2017 resolutions chocolate smoothies and books how are those new year resolutions going fallen off the wagon yet evidence suggests that most people do especially if their resolutions are all about depriving themselves of the things they love far better i think to have a positive goal in mind than kick off a new year with a focus on deprivation the best new year resolution i ve seen or heard is from alessandra zecchini who has vowed to eat chocolate and try new things i m planning to adopt that one along with growing more vegetables planting a lime tree and buying some more wineglasses we had a smashing good time over the festive period small goals maybe but still valid ones when i look back to this time last year it turns out that i achieved all the things i planned to do and ran a marathon despite feeling like i never got around to doing very much so perhaps the real resolution is to expect less of yourself and be pleasantly surprised by the results in the meantime i m trying to maintain a positive frame of mind about returning to my day job tomorrow gulp how am i going to cope without a slab of christmas cake for morning tea and an snooze after lunch back to work smoothie here s my recipe for a quick summer breakfast that a feels like a treat and b will keep you going until lunchtime this is a good way to use up your stash of frozen bananas but the rapidly ripening ones in the fruit bowl will also work well i prefer almond milk in smoothies but use whatever you like i also think the banana makes it sweet enough but add a

06 2016 chunky white choc orange and cranberry slice i read something last week about how invisible prisons jobs societal pressures parenting caring for older relatives meant that modern women are shackled with more responsibilities than their mothers and grandmothers i don t know if that s true personally if that s the price i have to pay for being able to vote drive own property and be generally free to do what i like i m fine with it but last week i did find myself wishing i did a bit less there s nothing like racing home after work on the night of the school production and remembering en route that you were supposed to bake something for the cake stall to give you conniptions is there now i know i could have ignored the cake stall request or i could have been more organised and done it a few days in advance but i didn t do either of those things instead i whipped up this slab of deliciousness in 20 minutes while concurrently making boiled eggs for dinner and getting the child in and out of the bath we then made it to the show on time and all the lovely mothers it s always mothers isn t it who are so good they even run the cakestall cooed over the slice and wanted the recipe in that moment i felt a little bit less like a failure and more like a contributing member of society even if my child was appearing in the show with a whopper of a black eye but that s another story chunky white choc orange and cranberry slice there are a zillion versions of this slice and the world probably doesn t need another one but if you have weeks where the wheels are coming off and yet you still need to bake this will save your bacon or bakin or something anyway this version is better than all the others because it s big and chunky and therefore more satisfying to eat it s also slightly less sweet than some versions if you re very very short of time you may like to know that it s possible to pre crush the packet of biscuits with the full tin of condensed milk while you re stopped at the lights also if you don t have quite enough biscuits add a little more coconut or use less butter if you re reading this while running to the shops a 200g packet of dried cranberries will give you enough for the base and the topping while a 250g block of whittaker s white chocolate will fulfill all your chocolate needs 100g butter 1 2 a tin about 3 4 cup condensed milk 300g plain sweet biscuits bashed to large crumbs keep a few big pieces in there for texture 1 cup desiccated coconut 125g white chocolate roughly chopped zest of an orange 1 cup dried cranberries 125g white chocolate roughly chopped for the icing 125g white chocolate 50g butter 1 cup icing sugar juice of an orange use the one you zested above 1 2 cup dried cranberries line a 20 x 25cm tin or thereabouts with baking paper leaving enough overhanging the sides that you can use to pull it out later melt the butter and condensed milk together over low heat in a large pot let cool briefly then tip in the biscuits coconut most of the orange zest cranberries and chocolate stir to mix then tip into the prepared tin press down the overhanging paper will help here to smooth the top put in the freezer use the same pot to make the icing melt the butter and white chocolate over very very low heat sift in the icing sugar and stir well then squeeze in a little orange juice at a time until it forms a thick spreadable mixture pour over the biscuit base then sprinkle the cranberries and reserved orange zest on top return to the freezer for 5 10 minutes before slicing and racing out the door if your life is more leisurely let the icing set in the fridge before slicing store in an airtight container in the fridge labels baking chocolate family good things new zealand party pudding recipes

i don t think they ever really took off a shame really it s always sad when little cakes never grow up to reach their full potential perhaps they ll make a comeback if slip dresses over white t shirts like we wore in the late 90s can make a resurgence this summer then surely there s hope for the whoopie pie i m hoping i can get ahead of the pack on this one and i might have made the thing to do it spicy gingerbread whoopie pies with creamy apple filling this is a recipe with three stages but it s not hard just make the apple compote the day before so it has time to chill in the fridge the pies
