Photo Friday-Bacon and Eggs

by Peter G February 25, 2011 Personal

First off I’d like to say a very big thank you to everyone who sent me emails, left comments and tweeted about the interview I did for Learn Food Photography. It was a great privilege and honour to be able to express my thoughts and processes about how I tackle food photography. I hope I

Pan de Leche

by Peter G October 27, 2010 Recipes

Do you ever wake up in the morning and find your thoughts are immediately consumed with food? I know I do! Usually it’s a bowl of muesli or porridge for breakfast but lately I’ve been springing out of bed and baking up a storm. Nothing too elaborate mind you! Considering my body clock is all over the place, early mornings for me can be anywhere from 4-6 a.m. It was [...]

Crumpets For Breakfast

by Peter G September 3, 2009 Recipes

I find myself becoming more and more of a breakfast person as I get older. Don’t get me wrong, I always eat something in the morning but these days I make a little extra effort to fuel my body for the days activities. Funnily enough, I can’t stay loyal to one brand of cereal long enough to really have a favourite but I do enjoy a hearty oatmeal in the [...]

Weekend Treat

by Peter G August 7, 2009 Recipes

Does everyone enjoy a big weekend brunch or breakfast? When I have the time, I know I do! Sydney is abuzz with cafes offering all day breakfasts over the weekend. You’ll often see people queuing up just to eat at the “latest” place, making sure their lattes match their latest fashion accessories. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy the cafe culture in Sydney but sometimes you just want to treat [...]

Frittata

by Peter G May 13, 2009 Recipes

The wonderful, kind and gorgeous Nuria from Spanish Recipes is holding an event titled “BlOg YOur Omelet”. She’s asking for people to submit their favourite recipes with eggs and this is my entry for it. I have decided to offer my version of “frittata“. Well, it’s not really a frittata in the real sense…more like an “eggy” pancake. It doesn’t have the height and thickness of those wonderful frittatas the [...]

Blueberry Pikelets

by Peter G January 17, 2009 Recipes

When I woke up this morning I was in the mood for pancakes. Drizzled with a load of maple syrup and lashings of creamed butter. Then I remembered I was trying to be “good”. I played around with the concept and decided to make pikelets. Pikelets are plumper than pancakes, made using a thick batter. I used wholemeal flour and a little Greek yogurt amongst other things. I was in [...]

Tangelos

by Peter G August 18, 2008 Recipes

I take my citrus seriously. Seriously! My latest farmers market haul included the usual winter goodies of oranges, lemons and tangelos. It had been ages since I had eaten tangelos and I really wanted to share my experience with them with you. They’re a cross between an orange and a grapefruit, full of juicy goodness. They look like an orange, shaped like a grapefruit but taste like a tangerine. Very [...]

Pretzels

by Peter G May 18, 2008 Recipes

Soft, chewy and oh so good! Continuing in my “breads of the world” series, LOL…I think that has a nice ring to it, I present the pretzel. I’m talking about the big, soft chewy kind. Not those crunchy miniscule bar snacks you might enjoy at he local pub with a beer. I fell in love with this bread the first time I visited Germany. I was mesmerised by the aroma, [...]

Tropical Fruit Cups

by Peter G May 2, 2008 Recipes

One, two or three! What do you do when you have leftover ingredients from the Joust? And a fridge full of unused fruit? You make fruit salad! Or as “modern” publications call them….Fruit Cups. It’s funny how the food language gets transformed with each generation. Seriously though, its a good way to increase your fruit intake. And we all know how important it is to eat fruit everyday. It [...]

Biteclub Does Breakfast

by Peter G October 6, 2007 Bite Club

Freshly Toasted Muesli Its been a while between a few posts and I thought I would do some “catch up” entries. I recently had the pleasure of attending a Biteclub held in the morning. Breakfast/brunch was on the agenda and our good hosts Tony and Michael had gone to the trouble of putting on an amazing feast. Better than any hotel buffet I’ve ever seen!!! And trust me, I’ve sat [...]
