Christmas Tree Grazing Board
Lately, I have been experimenting in my kitchen at home and I’ve come up with two festive grazing boards - or Christmas Sharing Platters - that I need to share with you. The first is shaped like a Christmas Tree “I am sharing how to make it in this blog, part 1 of my Festive Grazing Boards for the Holidays) and the other is a beautiful Christmas Wreath (stay tuned for part 2!). Both are perfect for holiday parties, get-togethers or even as a centrepiece on Christmas day.
Meet Alex Crisp: MasterChef Star and Fellow Dane
Let me introduce you to my friend, Alex Crisp - though Alex hardly needs an introduction, as Alex was a contestant on this year’s season of MasterChef Australia! Recently, Alex and I sat down for a good old chat about her foodie journey, her love of Danish traditions and how she brings a touch of hygge into her home as well as to her cooking.
Slow Cooked Ribeye with Nordic Spice Rub
This Slow Cooked Ribeye with Nordic Spice Rub is something else! Created by my good friend Karen, who happens to be a very talented chef and is travelling around Australia. While being on the road, Karen’s been embracing the art of slow living and in the spirit of slowing down, she told me she wanted to create a recipe that was as much about enjoying the art of slow cooking, as it was about reaping the rewards and enjoying a good meal. And when I say ‘good meal’ - slow cooked ribeye is extraordinary!
