NZ$ 65.00 each
Hardback
Author: Al Brown
Published by: Random House New Zealand Ltd
Al Brown is the acclaimed Wellington chef and owner of Logan Brown - one of Wellington's top restaurants. He's also one of the stars of Hunger for the Wild and author of the successful cookbook of the same name.

Brownie is a passionate man - he has loved fishing since he was a little nipper growing up and going fishing with his dad in the holidays, and he still loves nothing better than getting out there and going fishing with mates or his kids - nearly as much as he loves cooking. In this book he brings both of these great passions together, giving us 90 exceptional fish recipes.

Some of these recipes are very simple, and they are all approchable and cookable. They underscore Al's philosophy that good food is about freshness of produce - and then cooking it and seasoning it correctly. It's crucial that the flavours work well together, that the components are all in harmony and that it's all served generously. ... more

David Burton's New Zealand Food & Cookery order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 65.00 each
Paperback
Author: David Burton
Published by: David Bateman Ltd
Based in Wellington, David Burton is one of New Zealand's most influential and respected food writers, having earned his reputation over the last two decades as a discerning, if at times controversial, food and restaurant critic. His regular articles for Cuisine magazine and reviews for the Dominion Post are awaited with anticipation by diners, restaurateurs and chefs alike. When David wrote the award-winning 200 Years of New Zealand Food and Cookery (published in 1982 and regarded by many as the 'bible' of New Zealand's culinary industry), his claims that a unique New Zealand cuisine existed were met with hoots of derision. But David asserts that 'Kwisine Kiwiana', as he calls it, was and still is alive and kicking and evolving. Comprehensive in its coverage, this new book focuses on food and recipes of our nation. An introductory section covers Maori and traditional colonial foods, including a fascinating history of dining out in New ... more

Tea : A Potted History of Tea in New Zealand order quantity
  +   -
NZ$ 35.00 each
Paperback
Author: Susette Goldsmith
Published by: Reed Publishing (NZ) Ltd
Tea takes a wide-ranging and fast moving survey of the influences of tea and associated social traditions in New Zealand from frontier times to the present day. Tea drinking customs in China, Japan, England, Scotland, Holland and Italy provide useful context, but the focus is on the development of a ‘tea culture’ in New Zealand. The material is arranged thematically and begins with an examination of the ‘tea tree’ of Mãori, Captain Cook and whalers, and tea in early New Zealand settlements. It romps through tea gardens and heritage tea rooms, takes tea with the Queen and the Temperance movement, reveals tea as a murder weapon, a subject for Parliamentary scandal and a party theme for chimpanzees.

Tea-leaf reading, tea growing and railway refreshments all come under scrutiny along with the country’s fondness for tea paraphernalia including that invaluable New Zealand invention – the thermette. Linking all are historic ... more
