ALFRESHCO A History with Recipes released for outdoor fun




'ALFRESHCO foreshore flavour' follows and expands on previous books; 'THROUGH THE HEADS to Balmoral, Sydney' and MOSMAN MEANDERS & foreshore flavours'.

Outdoor eating, whether a backyard BBQ, an elegant alfresco supper or a picnic at the beach, is about the pleasure of sharing food with friends.

I explore the process of adapting and developing through our First Fleet legacy of portable industrialised food, the early influences on food and tastes, the introduction and inspiration of world cuisines and the birth of the modern food industry.



WITHOUT GREAT PRODUCE THERE CAN'T BE GREAT FOOD. 
Caprese Skewers P 90

Simple finger food ideal for alfresco / picnics, this salad includes traditional ingredients ie 180g baby bocconcini, 8 cherry or grape tomatoes and 1 cup fresh basil. 
Simply toss in a dressing of 2 tbsp. red wine vinegar, 1 tsp sugar or honey, and 2-3 tbsp olive oil, seasalt and freshly ground pepper then thread on skewers.
