Indholdsfortegnelse for Issue 100 Dec 2021 /Jan 2022 i Dish

Welcome to the 100th issue of dish, including one recipe from every issue ever published. A few provided the nub of an idea for a new recipe and some had a wee update to bring them into 2021 – however most are exactly as they appeared in their original state. I am not going to do a lot of directing to different sections of the magazine here; rather, I encourage you to meander your way through the pages, packed with recipes for sharing – from nibbles with drinks, to sensational Christmas mains, spectacular sides, stunning desserts, amazing baking, banging barbecue and laid-back bites to enjoy with family and friends. In these strange times of vaccination targets and certificates, traffic lights and restrictions, it is a pleasure to have something to…

Sarah Tuck, Editor Fishsmith, Herne Bay, Auckland: I hadn’t eaten fish and chips for about 10 years (I know, right?), but during Level 4 I developed a hankering for a big ole paper-wrapped feed. While I could have made Claire’s outrageously good Best-ever Fresh Catch Beer-battered Fish and Chips (page 204), I wasn’t up for making three different options to accommodate both me and my two darling sons, who are in my bubble. I went full-on old-school with a piece of battered fish and a potato fritter with lashings of tartare sauce, while my eldest opted for the spice-rubbed fish tacos with coleslaw and ponzu mayo and my youngest, the panko-crumbed fillet of fish burger with cheddar cheese, McClure’s pickles and house sauce. Oh my God. We sat in a…

Cheddar, Smoked Paprika and Sage Scones These light-as-air scones are fragrant with smoked paprika, sharp cheese and sage.

Ah yes, Issue #42, 2012. I remember it well. We’d decided it was time to highlight the best wines, beers and ciders in the land. We’d put the word out and assemble a crack team of the best palates in the business to judge. We’d book out the boardroom, hire some glasses, and crank up the staffroom dishwasher for clean-up. How hard could it be? Cut to six MWs and winemakers crammed into a tiny meeting room, ploughing through 182 pinot noirs, using dozens upon dozens of glasses, stressing out the volunteers and causing the poor old dishwasher to seize up. Still, we found 10 gold medal winners and our Tasting Panels were born! We’ve since been lucky to work with the amazing Janet Blackman and Cameron Douglas MS from…

Notes for cooks To ensure successful results in cooking, we recommend you invest in accurate measuring tools – measuring cups and spoons and a measuring jug are essential and electronic scales are particularly useful as they weigh accurately in both imperial and metric. Always follow one set of measures in a recipe. Do not mix them up. DISH USES: Large eggs (size 7). Level spoons and cup measurements. Liquids are always measured in a jug and dry ingredients in measuring cups. NB: One tablespoon is 15ml (the Australian tablespoon is 20ml).

Nobody was more surprised than me to suddenly find myself with a food magazine,” says Catherine Bell, dish founding editor. When she began the magazine in 2004, she owned the Epicurean Workshop, a famed Auckland cooking school and cookware shop, and had dreamed of starting a food title for years – but believed it was pie in the sky. “I had seen that there was a gap in the market,” she says. “The only food magazine at that time was Cuisine. Then I met John [Baker] and Julian [Andrews] and discovered they were thinking of starting their own publishing company. It all just came together. Magazine publishing was completely new to me, so it was sensible to join forces with two seasoned magazine publishers.” Catherine immediately asked Claire Aldous, who…

Maddie Ballard Deputy Editor @maddieballard27 Maddie has always wanted to write about food but has spent a lot of time doing other things, including studying poetry, teaching German, working as a librarian and reporting on London’s recycling infrastructure. Now, she’s landed a dream job in food media and will probably never do anything except edit and eat noodles again. If she’s not baking a cake or listening to any and every podcast featuring Samin Nosrat, she’s probably sewing a new piece of clothing, one of her favourite hobbies. She doesn’t like talking about herself, which is why this is in the third person. Conor Fox Art Director @conorfox When she’s not working her design magic on our pages, Conor – dedicated foodie that she is – can probably be found…

SARAH TUCK Editor Editor extraordinaire Sarah sets the editorial vision and tone for dish, oversees everything from design to digital strategy, creates recipes for every issue and is somehow always full of beans. She tells us about her remarkable journey since taking the helm in 2019. How long have you worked for dish? Sarah: I started at the end of May 2019. I’d been doing freelance recipe development, styling and photography for dish, Cuisine, Stuff and a few other places for a few years before that, and I loved the creative side of freelancing – but my background is a bit more corporate and I missed using that part of me in my work. Also, working freelance was lonely! My kids had left home and my ex had also left,…
