My Secret Kitchen, Spring range with a real twist
My Secret Kitchen’s Phil Moran says they like to push the tastebud boundaries. Trying familiar foods with a bit of a twist is what they believe people will do in 2011.
Three new products have been launched by My Secret Kitchen to test their theory.
Lemon and Bergamot Shortbread mix – Having your afternoon tea all in one as this mixes bergamot the flavour found in Earl Grey with lemon. The shortbread is great by itself but with a touch of imagination there are many other uses say chief creator, Clare Moran. It could be used as a base for lemon meringue cheesecake of a crumble topping for white peaches or poached pears. For a subtle twist you can add orange zest, basil or rosemary.
Artichoke Pesto – The familiar pesto with a Tuscan hills twist by adding the flavours of garlic, thyme, lemon and the subtle flavour of artichokes. Top bruschetta or crostini with this great spread or mix the pesto with warm pasta or even chilled for a tasty barbecue pasta salad. For a touch of elegance a spoonful of the pesto to accompany pan-fried chicken breast with white wine, cream and asparagus tips.
Chocaberry Cheese Ball Mix combines with cream cheese to create tastefully tart mouthfuls of creamy white chocolate and raspberry indulgence. This inspires the possibility of outrageously impressive dessert cheese balls or, when also mixed with cream, an incredibly quick-and-easy cheesecake filling. Alternatively, just sandwich it between a couple of biscuits and enjoy a slice of fantasy food heaven.
