What a difference 12 months can make. This time in 2022 we were all struggling with ridiculous vegie prices as a result of the floods in southern Queensland earlier in the year. But this year we've had amazing, mild growing conditions and prices of vegetables have plummeted. Beans, broccoli, cabbage, capsicums, carrots, celery and cucumbers have all been less than half the price they were last year. Now, in a world where everyone is looking to make that family budget stretch a bit more, my best shopping tip is to look at our amazing vegies, as there is so much value to be found across our stores. And as spring begins taking hold, I'm starting to look at my barbecue more and more. Spring lamb cutlets, scotch fillet or dry-aged…

AUSTRALIAN ORGANIC AWARENESS MONTH HOW CERTIFIED ORGANIC HELPS THE PLANET Certified organic farms have been shown to produce up to 40% less carbon emissions than non-organic in multiple long-term trials. Rising temperatures caused by climate change are making already-dry regions drier and bringing about more extreme flooding. Certified organic farming mitigates the effects of global warming because of its ability to enhance carbon and water storage in soil. GIVING THE SOIL A HELPING HAND Soil is the biggest natural mainland carbon sink and is extremely important both for food security and for climate mitigation. Techniques such as inter-cropping, cover cropping, pasture cropping and optimal livestock management (continuous pasture coverage) on the land can help certified organic producers to increase soil health and fertility. This also has the benefit of taking…

Hello all, and welcome to this latest issue. We hope you enjoy it. And now when I read about Cathy's Nonna's risotto below, I'm reminded of my own mother's very simple recipe, which the family called Nonna's pasta. Try as we might, we still cannot capture the absolutely mouth-watering flavour she cooked with such ease. We think it's because she had more butter courage than us! She took a little oil, with downright mountains of butter, melted it all in a pot and gently cooked in onions and a clove of garlic, with tomato paste to taste. She seasoned just a little. And that was it! And damn it Nonna, you're legendary, because we just cannot get your flavour. We think you kept a cook's secret so you could quietly…

1 BEST TO BUY IN SEASON When fruits, vegetables and herbs are in season, they're usually more abundantly available and therefore cheaper. There's a reason why root vegetables, hearty leafy greens and citrus are in season during the winter months, and salad greens come into their crowning glory in the summer months. They are exactly what our body nutritionally needs at that particular time of the year. Foods grown and consumed during their appropriate seasons are more nutritionally dense, gaining benefit from a broader crosssection of phytochemicals and nutrients, and generally having a better flavour. Visit your local Harris Farm Markets to discover a fantastic selection of fresh, locally sourced certified organic products. This experience not only helps reduce food miles, but also offers a stimulating and educational opportunity for…

Recently I had the pleasure of two of my boys cooking dinner for me. I gave myself a silent pat on the back – must be a sign of a good mum if your kids love cooking like you do! It made me think about family traditions and family recipes. So I dug into the kitchen cupboards trying to find my Nonna's recipes and, with delight, I found an old photostat copy of her handwritten recipe book. ‘Buon Appetito', Essie Rossi's Recipes. Memories came flooding back better than a photograph album. I found myself laughing, then crying, then happy. I could smell the food, hear the laughter and feel the love. Thank you Nonna, for this gift. I was discussing the recipe one day with my old friend, the wonderful…

Meet Provenir, whose wonderful vision was to create a mobile abattoir to ensure there was ‘no live transport’ in the supply chain of beef to table. And it is now Australia's first mobile processing unit eliminating the stress on livestock associated with live transport to meat processors. The process essentially is reversed, taking the abattoir to the farm, and processing the cattle at home. This also inherently improves the grass-fed beef for the end consumer as less-stressed cattle ensure a tender and better-tasting meat. Good for the farmers The benefits for the farmers are extra special too. Provenir's mobile abattoir offers them very important control of their livestock until the very end. As caring farmers they know they have provided their cattle a good life and are there with them…
