Taste Byron Bay Food Forum

I’ve always been throughly fascinated by foods ability to bring people together, and have run out of fingers to count the times I’ve been wandering around this great big beautiful planet of ours, met and made life long friends purely through a shared love of food, shared around a big table with laughter and good times.

Soooooo I thought it might be fun to start a Taste Byron Bay Food Forum, in short a shared space on the www for us all to connect.  A space for you to ask me any foodie questions, recipe ideas or just you know …… a little space for us to all share our love of fabulous food!  Oh and if you see a question on the Food Forum that you’d like to chime in and answer please feel free to share your foodie knowledge and love.

I’d also absolutely loooooooove to hear your recipe ideas, and for you to share your family favourite recipes that have been passed down to you through the generations OR perhaps share some new family favourites that you have created.

I can’t wait to hear all about your recipes and shared family food memories.

My love of fresh seasonal produce shared and enjoyed around a big table with family and friends started as a young girl for me, and it's a love that has stayed with me my whole life. I am inspired to write recipes that are produce driven, recipes that enhance and showcase fresh local seasonal produce, created to be shared with family and friends. After all great food should be celebrated!

    Hi Terase

    I Just wanted to ask you about cooking steak to perfection – have you got any tips or tricks to avoid over/under cooking steak? Also does turning steak frequently during cooking give better results or not?

    Thanks in advance!

    Michael.

      Hi Michael

      Oh we get asked this question a lot. The ticket to success for cooking great steaks is relatively simple:

      * buy your meat from a quality butcher – preferably one that buys whole carcasses and breaks them down in house
      * “aged” meat will have more flavour / taste better
      * my favourite cut of beef as a steak is Rib-Eye on the bone – lots of flavour and the bone helps to keep the cooking temperature even throughout the cooking process
      * always ensure the meat is at room temperature before cooking i.e. take the meat out of the fridge about 20-30mins before you intend to cook it (leave in a cool area in your kitchen and covered)
      * heat up your BBQ or fry pan (make sure the BBQ is clean before you heat it up and that you use a good fry pan with a solid base to ensure even cooking)
      * once the pan / BBQ is hot add a little oil (I normally use Macadamia nut oil or coconut oil because they have a higher flash point) add a little oil and swirl the oil in the pan to ensure even coverage – season one side of the steak and place the steak in seasoned side down – allow the steak to get a good colour before turning – season the top side before turning – it is important to allow the steak to get a good colour as it seals in the juices and also adds to the flavour and eating enjoyment
      * remove the steak from the pan before it gets to you preferred cooking i.e. medium rare etc – you want to allow the steak to ‘rest’ for a minimum of 5-10 mins – before either returning the steak to a clean hot fry pan to finish cooking to your likely
      * You can also finish with a little butter in the pan and with a spoon, spoon the melted butter over the steak to add some more flavour and a lovely gloss to the steak
      * I normally also allow the steak to rest again before serving

      I am a bit old school with my cooking of steak, by that I mean that I don’t turn the steak multiple times. I know that some people like to cook the meat on a lower heat and turn several times during the cooking process. I understand the logic, but for me I like cooking on a high heat and getting a lovely caramelisation.

      I hope you found some helpful tips in the above.

      Let me know how you get on.
