Discovering modern Australian Cuisine: Neil Perry talks to Roberta Muir
|
|
A cornerstone of modern Australian cooking, chef and cookbook author Neil Perry has been of culinary importance to the region for over four decades. This June he won the Icon award at The World’s 50 Best Restaurant Awards.
In celebration of two of Neil’s books joining the existing pair on ckbk, making that a very delicious quartet, Roberta Muir’s new profile of the great chef puts his work and his books in context. With her discussion of Neil’s restaurants, from the era defining Rockpool onwards, Roberta documents his experience in, and influence on, Australia’s food scene. She looks at where each of his books sits in his career, and which of his impressive pantheon of iconic dishes mark each period and venue.

An early pioneer of direct sourcing from fishermen and other suppliers, and blending Asian techniques and flavours into Australian dishes, Neil Perry’s food is very modern. Without doubt he forged the way for what are now widespread practices.
His dishes, old and new, reflect how we want to eat now.

‘Strawberries are the most emotive of fruits, bright or deep red, conical or oval, they embody summers past and the possibility of summer, unfolding now, in one neat bite.’ Antonia Lloyd

TV producer and food writer Antonia Lloyd is passionate about strawberries, as evocatively described in her latest feature for ckbk.

The radish means different things within different global cuisines, but all of the many varieties are cruciferous plants related to the turnip and horseradish. At this time of year in England or France you would picture a small crisp pearly white globe, dipped in pink. In France you would serve them with cold butter and perhaps some flakes of sea salt.
