Simon and I both take Christmas preparation Very Seriously.

S1 Ep 100PIEDMONTESE PEPPERS 🫑

Simon and I share a love of food and I find it particularly enjoyable when he gets genuinely excited about a recipe, which, to be honest, is most of the time! (Except, I think, that time I talked about hot dogs.) Anyway, today I think he sensed that I was out of juice. My mojo was in a slump. And I was skeptical about this whole "Pyrmont Peppers" thing - - until he talked me around. You can hear me change my mind in real time! Anyway, all beside the point. The point is: this way to eat capsicum is a classic and it uses all the ingredients that are in season right now and it's one of Simon's favourite recipes ever.Want more food tips?

Finding an excuse to say "tradie's handbag" (- which is slang for "supermarket bbq chicken") is kinda becoming the newest 5MinFoodFix easter egg.] Want more food tips?

I once paid $35 for a Mac n Cheese in a fancy restaurant and it was actually really good. But Simon's right - simplicity is essential for a good Mac n Cheese.

Simon and I have in common that we will always have a crack at a new food experience, including making ice-cream from scratch. But making ice-cream is actually bullshit. If you've ever used an ice-cream maker, you'll know: it sucks. It actually sucks. It's the opposite of fun.

Some foods are so precious and fine that overcooking is a real risk - for instance, snow peas, sugar snap peas and even cauliflower.

Have you ever had that yummy, dark-purple, sweet bean in an Asian dessert? Those are Adzuki beans!

HOWEVER, with wonderful, locally grown adzuki beans now commonly available, it's actually kinda easy! And these fill your house with an amazing perfume while they cook. Particularly good for people with allergies to wheat and dairy, this is an authentic Japanese sweet that when cooked is called 'anko' - that you can enjoy using pretty much 2 ingredients.

Is it normal to be this obsessed with food? We contemplate our obsessive contemplation while gazing at the crouton the way Melbournians gaze up at that stained glass ceiling at the NGV. Heavenly choirs did sing by the way, and we shared croutons while sharing the best way to cook them.1. Make a mixture of 1/2 cup olive oil and dried herbs, bit of salt, garlic.2. Use a pastry brush to brush the mixture over pieces of good-quality (stale is ok) bread.3. Cut the bread up into cubes.4. Roast in a preheated 180C oven for 20 minutes, tossing them around.5.

S1 Ep 61The secret to the SANDWICH. 🥪

Simon has edited a bunch of books about making really GOOD sandwiches. Bad sandwiches are like happy families - boring and common. Good sandwiches? Well let's write a goddamn novel about these, baby! There are some key elements to that delicious and perfect sandwich. Bread obviously. But I don't want to write about it here. I want you to hear our hosts wax lyrical about "HERO ingredients" - temperature (!!), a sandwich being like a bed, and the importance of being as generous with the condiments as our hosts are with the LOLs.
