23.01.2022 JUST A REMINDER.... The Sydney Fish Markets is where your fish monger shops! _ 20 minutes from Bondi Junction will take you directly to the freshest fish and seafood, on the east coast of Australia!! _ Shopping tips when buying the freshest fish:... - Buy whole fish and have it filleted and skinned - Make sure its eyes are clear and not milky - the fish scales should be firm and not flick off easily - the skin should be glossy and sticky - the bones can be kept for fish stock, and placed in the freezer for another time. _ @sydneyfishmarket @miacucina_ _ #fishmarkets #buyfresh #markets #SydneyFoodTours #FoodTours #Sydney #SydneyFoodie #foodtourssydney #SydneyFoodShare #SydneyLocal #SydneyFood #SydneyEats #SydneyLife #SydneyCity #SydneyBound #SydneyAustralia #visitNSW #seeSydney #Sydney_Sider #ILoveSydney #nsw #teambuilding #corporate #mymiacucina @dailytelegraph @goodfoodmonth @miacucina_ @visitsydney @tourismnsw @culturetripfood @broadsheet_syd @airbnb #fcba @sbsfood See more

20.01.2022 ADAM WITH BREAM. . ARCHIBALD PRIZE 2020 . Yoshio Honjo’s subject is celebrity chef, TV presenter, author and winner of 2010 MasterChef Australia Adam Liaw. Honjo says: ‘The episode of Adam’s win was the most watched (non-sport) television event in Australian history. However, it was after MasterChef that I learnt of his passion for Japanese food, culture and history, something we both share a love for. I appreciate that Adam has shone a light on Japanese food in Australia.... . Honjo has painted Adam as Ebisu, one of Japanese mythology’s Seven Lucky Gods. ‘Ebisu is the god of prosperity, plenitude and abundance of crops and food. He is the patron of fishermen and is often pictured with a large fish. The figure of Ebisu is often seen in Japanese restaurants and household kitchens. I’ve painted Adam with a bream. . ‘Adam was enthusiastic about me using handmade Japanese washi paper and mud ink originating from the Japanese countryside. Using traditional materials reflects our shared enthusiasm for the Japanese artisan.’ . Honjo was born in Shiga, Japan in 1979 and moved to Australia in 2005. A self-taught artist, he is also a professional tattooist. This is his first time in the Archibald Prize. . @artgalleryofnsw @miacucina_ @yoshiohonjo @adamliaw . #artgallerynsw #archibaldprize #foodandart #yoshiohonjo #adamliaw #mymiacucina #sydney @tourismnsw @destination_nsw @visitnsw @miacucina_ See more

18.01.2022 MISSING MEXICO.... Limones Rellenos De Cocada are candied limes filled with sweet shredded coconut. _ The taste of the Limones Rellenos De Cocada is a little exotic, they have a intense lime flavor but without the tartness limes usually come with, and they are really sweet. They are basically candied lime skins filled with sugary shredded coconut. _ Yes, of course we had to bring them home and we still dream about them, years later. ... _ Modelled by @ketubahbyshoshi wearing a local embroided cotton dress. _ Mexico City @miacucina_ _ @fortunakalach @michkalach #ilovemexico #mexicocityfood #DF #foodporn #foodblogger #chicana #blogging #comiendo #enchiladas #enchiladassuizas #instafoodie #instagram #mezcal #foodies #travel #foodtours #mexicofood #mymiacucina #comidamexicana #travelblogger #turistando #ilovemexicocity #mexicotrip #visitmexico @mexico_mx @visitmexico @timeoutmexico @lefooding #limecoconut #candiedcoconutlimes See more

18.01.2022 CELEBRATING 25 YEARS IN BUSINESS today and we ponder how Mia Cucina has evolved over the years. . This business has grown and taken many different directions and developed over the years.From food styling in industry for magazines, cookbooks and TV commercials during the day and lecturing at colleges at night. Creating a boutique cooking school that was a huge success, with over 300 clients, providing basic cooking skills, sharing our favourite recipes and inspiring a gener...ation of cooks. . The early years as a teenager was spent working in retail sales at Accoutrement where wages were $5 per hour, selling imported French cookware, Mexican home wares and delicious sweet treats, exquisite French knives and spices. At night, I would assist the top Sydney chefs like Damien Pignolet, Mogens Bay Esbensen, and Stephanie Alexander, demonstrating recipes, serving food, and on the cash register selling goods, closing up the shop and crashing into bed, before heading back to school the following morning. . Formally trained as a Home Economist back in the day, as there wasn’t much else to study if you had a passion for food. With a strong work ethic, I have always believed in giving back to our community, supporting many local charities with my knowledge and skills. . Exploring Sydney’s diverse suburbs, taking my four children out on adventures each weekend, we discovered the alleyways of Haymarket, the back streets and cheeses of Italian Haberfield, the spices in Lebanese Lakemba, Little India, and Turkish Auburn. It was more than just the food, I was educating my kids on the wider community, sharing my knowledge of this diverse city we live in. Offering Corporate and Private Food Tours, promoting diverse Sydney was the epilogue to these adventures, educating our broader community, showcasing our amazing city. . Happiness is finding the right balance creating food, sharing recipes, giving back to the community and inspiring others. . 25 years in business @miacucina_ . . . . . . . . #markets #SydneyFoodTours #FoodTours #Sydney #SydneyFoodie #foodtourssydney #SydneyLocal #SydneyFood #SydneyEats #SydneyCity #SydneyBound #SydneyAustralia #visitNSW

13.01.2022 LEFTOVERS. If you know us, then you know we never waste food. With the remaining cooked Middle Eastern, Hummus Ma Lahma, spicy beef mince served on Hummus, we added some pomegranate molasses to the mince, found some wonton wrappers in the freezer and made our Bobba’s famous kreplach. _ Kreplach (from Yiddish: and Hebrew: ) are small dumplings filled with ground meat, mashed potatoes or another filling, usually boiled and served in chicken soup, though they ma...y also be served fried.[1] They are similar to Polish uszka, Russian pelmeni, Italian ravioli or tortellini, German Maultaschen, and Chinese jiaozi and wonton. The dough is traditionally made of flour, water and eggs, kneaded and rolled out thin. Some modern-day cooks use frozen dough sheets or wonton wrappers. (Wikipedia). _ Served at Whiskey o’clock, what a better way to have celebrated Father’s Day with the family. - Mia Cucina HQ @miacucina_ _ @gramadon @ketubahbyshoshi @bebe______meme @issiport @AsherPort @dhelf30 @dhbuild_ @rajasammusic #nowaste #repurpose #eateverything #planahead #recycle #heirloomrecipe #BobbaSophie See more

06.01.2022 SIR JOHN SULMAN PRIZE 2020 Finalist, John Honeywill. . Ambrosia, 2020 oil on linen 122 x 122 cm... $18,500 . I paint the quiet visual conversations between everyday objects; paintings that explore presence and stillness in the genre of the still life a genre that links the intimate world with the public. I am often drawn to a subject because of the beauty I find in it; sometimes it is its quality of ‘otherness’ how the subject creates other possibilities in the ways it is viewed and felt. With Ambrosia, it’s both. .

06.01.2022 DO YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE between Lebanese and Turkish baklava? _ Lebanese baklava is traditionally made with walnuts and sometimes even with orange blossom water and often honey is used in the syrup. Turkish Baklava on the other hand, is traditionally made with pistachios (fistikli baklava) or walnuts (cevizli baklava), drizzled with a sugar syrup, once out of the oven. _ These hand made Turkish baklava are packed full of chopped pistachio nuts and decorated with pistachi...o dust. _ What’s missing did we hear you ask?

02.01.2022 WEEKENDS ARE FOR EXPERIMENTING!! _ Baby boomers and Gen X, remember those days of growing Alf Alfa sprouts in the kitchen? That wondrous achievement of adding fresh sprouts to your salad? Back in the 70’s ours had 4 trays that stack on top of each other, where you water the top and it dripped throughout and collected in the base at the bottom. Well Gen Z are bringing it back! _ We are still researching the best apparatus that is eco friendly, looks good in the kitchen, holds ...in the odour and doesn’t take up too much bench space. _ Do you have any suggestions?
