Paul Mercurio

Dancer, choreographer, actor and television


personality Paul Mercurio has always loved food.
After many appearances cooking on a variety
of Australian TV shows, Paul landed his own
food-based program, Mercurios Menu. More
than sixty episodes later, he has developed well
over 200 original recipes for his show. This is his
second cookbook.
Paul is passionate about all things beer and
has been brewing his own since 1988. He has
hosted the Australian International Beer Awards,
the Perth Beer Awards and the New Zealand
International Beer Awards, at which he has also
been a beer judge.
Paul is not a trained chef but, he says,
just a bloke who likes to cook. He is attracted
to the creativity of the kitchen, great produce,
excellent food, sharing food with family and
friends and of course a good beer to go with it all.

Friends and family will never guess the secret ingredient


in this collection of more than 85 delicious dishes, as
beer awards judge and keen cook Paul Mercurio brings
together his two great passions. The beer in these
recipes is an essential component, not a gimmick. Used
as an ingredient, beer adds all sorts of wonderful
complexity to a dish. There are more than 80 beer
styles in the world, each with its own avours that will
add something special to whatever youre cooking
savoury or sweet, simple or made for entertaining.
Dive in and discover how good dishes such as onion,
stout and goats cheese tart, beer-braised beef osso
bucco or decadent chocolate stout brownies can be.
As Paul says: If theres liquid in a recipe, it might
as well be beer.

Cooking with Beer

A book for anyone who likes good food


not just the who like beer.

Cooking is all about being creative,


nourishing the soul as well as the body and
sharing the joy with family and friends.

Pauls enthusiasm for food shines through


in Mercurios Menu, which features the best
recipes from both seasons of the popular
TV series and includes such favourites as
Bangalow sweet pork roast, beer-marinated
prawns on crisp asparagus spears and a ricotta
cherry cheesecake that will make you swoon.

If you think beer is good for drinking but cant


imagine cooking with it, this book will make you
think again. There are dozens of beer styles, from
light and fruity to rich and malty. Beer picks up
the avours of the ingredients its brewed with
and develops complexity during the brewing
process. The results are layered, endlessly
varied and suited to all types of food, both as an
accompaniment and an essential ingredient.
In Cooking with Beer, beer enthusiast and
passionate home cook Paul Mercurio presents
87 of his favourite recipes. For beer novices Paul
explains the various types of beer, and suggests
suitable styles and brands for each recipe.
Once youve tried Pauls delicious and
innovative recipes, youll never look at beer the
same way again.

Biota
James Viles
This is habitat-inspired food using local
produce to create honest, pure dishes, each
one telling a story of how that dish became.
Underpinning James Viles food is a celebration
of the balance of animal and plant life. His food
brings together ingredients, textures and flavours
that exist alongside each other in nature, work
together and complement each other. There
are 60recipes, with accompanying stories,
that reflect on the notion of biota, the animals
and plant life of a particular region, and the
philosophy of using what is at hand. The recipes
are home-cook friendly and, while James Viles
may be redefining regional Australian cuisine,
the notion of biota is relevant everywhere.
The message is simple: listen to the local
environment, learn from Mother Nature and
take your inspiration and intuition from the
very place that surrounds you.

Easy Mediterranean
Sue Quinn
Could this be the worlds healthiest way to
eat? The dishes are tried-and-tested, delicious
and easy to prepare and share, and in recent
years the Mediterranean diet has also been
scientifically shown to have immense health
benefits. Abundant in fresh produce and
legumes, and making great use of poultry and
fish over red meat, Mediterranean-style eating
has been proven to reduce the risk of heart
disease, diabetes and stroke. While cookery
writers such as Anna Del Conte, Claudia Roden
and Yotam Ottolenghi have each explored the
traditional cuisines of their individual homelands,
Easy Mediterranean pulls together the best
of the whole region. Sue Quinn combines the
flavours and ingredients of the vibrant countries
that hug the Mediterranean Sea to create fresh
and contemporary dishes for every day. Crucially,
these recipes also celebrate a fundamental
feature of the Mediterranean way of life: that
we should all take a relaxed pleasure in enjoying
good food with friends and family.

the vibrant, tradition-steeped way of life of the
western Mediterranean. This is a collection

Supercharged Food: Fast


Your Way to Wellness

Lee Holmes

Lee Holmes

Supercharged Food for Kids will inspire you


to create fresh, wholesome and nutrient-rich
meals that your children will enjoy again and
again, giving them the energy and nourishment
they need to thrive. With advice on how to
avoid added sugar and processed foods, eating
for allergies and intolerances, tips for busy
families and even the lowdown on how to sneak
superfoods into everyday meals, this book is full
of resources to help establish positive eating
habits for kids that they can maintain for the rest
of their lives.

Lee Holmes presents a simple, supportive and


sustainable approach to intermittent fasting (IF),
featuring balanced meals that use nutritious
unrefined wholefoods to boost energy. The IF
diet is based on a 500 calorie (2092 kilojoule)
restriction for women and a 600 calorie (2510
kilojoule) restriction for men. Among its many
benefits, intermittent fasting helps the body shift
from a sugar-burning machine into a fat-burning
machine. Lee demonstrates that fasting can be
even healthier with the right food and ingredient
choices, putting you on the path to achieving
good health, increased vitality and weight loss.

Perfect Imperfect takes as its founding principle


the Japanese concept of wabi-sabi, advocating
the beauty to be found in imperfection,
impermanence and the authentic. Importantly,
this is done without losing sight of the benefits
of living in the 21st century, where designers are
merging digital technology with the handmade
to produce items that combine the best of both
worlds. This inspirational book, with thoughtprovoking text by Karen McCartney and stunning
visuals by Sharyn Cairns and Glen Proebstel, is
a celebration of accident, curation, collection,
hesitation, collaboration, reuse, reimagining and
true originality. Perfect Imperfect explores an
established aesthetic in a new way, as illustrated
by the homes and studios of creatives from
the UK, USA, Europe and Australia. It embraces
current design objects alongside well-worn ones,
and features interior settings that mix comfort,
design and an offbeat beauty.

ABOUT THE AUTHORS:


Karen McCartney has a wealth of experience in
the areas of interior design, art and architecture.
She has written for British Elle Decoration, The
Financial Times and The World of Interiors.

Monique van den Heuvel

Mickey Robertson
Twenty-five years ago, Mickey Robertson and
her husband Larry purchased a collection of
historic but dilapidated Georgian farm buildings
in country NSW, Australia. Thus began an
intensely emotional journey of restoration and
renewal. The natural world and the seasons
are an integral part of Mickeys home and life,
and she explores the links between them in
this richly illustrated book. Glenmore House
exemplifies her philosophy that colour, texture,
representation, sentiment, memory and emotion
each play a role in creating a home. The colours,
textures and vistas of her world-class garden also
play a significant role within each room of the
house. In addition to the ornamental garden that
enfolds her home, Mickey has built a productive
organic/biodynamic kitchen garden, which is
never dormant. In this book she also provides
30 seasonally based recipes inspired by her
abundant and fresh home-grown produce.

Backyard Chickens

Jane Lawson

While Tokyo pulsates like no other city, its true


heart can be easily overlooked. It is found where
the locals live, wander, shop, are entertained, eat
and drink. Tokyo Style Guide offers style-savvy
intrepids a starting point for exploration with a
series of guided walks, a friendly narrative hand
to hold, and a unique insight into Japans culture
and aesthetic. Japanophile Jane Lawson suggests
a loose itinerarywith accompanying mapfor
ten neighbourhood walks.

Keeping a few hens in the backyard used to be


the habit of only those who lived in rural areas
or hippies. Now its mainstream and an attractive
proposition for those even in urban settings.
Fluffy little recycling units that eat weeds, kitchen
scraps and turn them into organic eggswhats
not to love? Chickens are great backyard pets for
young and old, a natural extension for anyone
who has a vegie patch and especially good for
those who like eggs but are concerned about
the welfare of hens in the commercial egg
industry. This book is a perfect reference for
those already keeping chickens in the backyard
or gift for the absolute beginner thinking about
getting a few hens. It offers advice on how to
start, how much commitment is involved, and
how to house, feed andtroubleshoot.

Disobedient Gardens
Michael Cooke and Brigid Arnott
Landscape designer Michael Cooke presents
five of his superbly designed gardens, including
his own, illustrated by the lyrically beautiful
photographs of co-author Brigid Arnott. The
selected gardens encapsulate the characteristics
he considers vital in the making of a truly
beautiful, liveable garden. They have a distinct
voice of their own, reflecting not only the
personality and style of the owners, but also
the longstanding relationship and emotional
connection between the owners and Michael,
who has maintained and developed the gardens
over many years. Significantly, they all feature
elements of wildness combined with a degree of
order. These characteristics lend the gardens great
character, texture and warmththe landscapes
may be magnificent, but they all have an organic
quality, imperfections, a degree of disobedience
that makes them even more fascinating.

away. The Bee Friendly Garden is a guide for all
gardeners great and small to encouraging bees
and other good bugs to your green space. It
includes: a comprehensive guide to bee-friendly
plants, simple changes anyone can make, natural
pest control and companion planting advice.
