The best food is fresh. The best food is straight from the farmer, the paddock, the ocean and its taste is on a whole other level of delicious. So the best and freshest food must be sort after. But it is not as hard as you think.

I was lucky enough to receive some seafood and meat from the suppliers. Vacuum pack to seal in the freshness, I received salmon, barrumundi and sirloin steak. I enjoyed these gifts with friends by creating a smorgasbord of meals (photo above). I made salmon Rillette; steamed the barramundi in a paper bag with thyme and lemon (enpopiote) drizzling with a lemon Beurre Blanc and grilled the sirloin steak serving it with a Dijon sauce accompanied with a roast potato and rocket salad. My guests loved it. The quality was restaurant, the difference being we were eating in the comfort of my backyard on a hot balmy night.

By supporting local famers, eating with the seasons and developing an awareness of food quality (that just has to be good for the soul) this new way of grocery shopping could be a great way to get healthy. And at harvest to home they take that very seriously. With an ongoing partnership with the George Institute www.georgeinstitute.org for Global health, harvest to home are ambassadors for bringing attention to diet and lifestyle induced illnesses such as diabetes, kidney and cardiovascular disease. Even being apart of the 1st cook for a cure campaign in 2011 www.cookforacure.com.au/

By eating good quality produce that is filling and nutritious and needing only to make an order which is delivered to the convenience of your front door (with ice packs if you’re not home) harvest to home could really make a difference to your life and your appreciation of food.
