Organic fruit & vege box
It’s time to take another peek in my kitchen…
I’ve been trying out a few home delivery services for fruit and vege in the last few weeks. This beautiful box was from HomeFresh Organics. So far so good. They’re reasonably-priced and if you put in the order the by 4pm you will receive it the next day. Everything I’ve had so far has been great quality and super tasty.
I ordered the ‘mystery box.’ Ok so that’s not what it’s called but I like to think of it like that. They do have a rough list of what’s in it but I don’t look. I like it to be a surprise then a challenge to use it all up in new ways.
Noosa Lime Co.
In my kitchen is a bottle of ginger and kafir lime cordial from the Noosa Lime Co. courtesy of my mum. I usually get their regular lime cordial but they were all out so mum got me this one to try (I haven’t opened it yet). Thanks mum!
Profiline Pushpan
In my kitchen is a Profilline Pushpan (it was sent to me). I’ve heard good things about these tins and I have to say I rather like it.
Testing out the pushpan
I like the shape that comes out at the top (might have been the cake recipe though) and so far no crumbs and no leakage and it’s easy to clean.
Honey mousse
In my kitchen is a tub of organic honey mousse. It is so light you would think you were eating some sort of froth but with all the sweetness of honey. After a lengthy conversation with the honey man at the markets I learned that making this is not to be tried at home. He had to use a commercial mixer to make it because it needs to be whipped for an hour to get the texture.
Apparently he killed his Kitchenaid when he tried. Oh the horror!
Byron Bay Chili co. spicy salsa
In my kitchen is a jar of spicy salsa from the Byron Bay Chili co. Will asked if we could graduate from mild salsa so when I saw this in IGA at Noosa I had to buy it for him. It’s actually not as hot as we thought but so full of flavour and gutsy.
Beef-stocked freezer from Bonnie Beef
In my kitchen is a freezer drawer full of meat fresh from Bonnie Beef delivered right to my kitchen by the farmers themselves on Sunday. We had the eye fillets on Monday night and they were oh so tasty. It’s really reasonably priced too. If you want to have a connection to your meat and know exactly where it came from (probably even the name of the beast, or at least its dad’s name!) then check out Bonnie Beef.
Butter chicken past from Mudgeeraba Spices
In my kitchen is a butter chicken paste from Mudgeeraba Spices (also from IGA). It’s probably the most authentic paste I’ve come across so far. If only I could find a really good naan recipe we’d be all set for Indian at home.
That wraps up my kitchen tour for this month. What about you? What’s in your kitchen?

Oooh, you guys must be braver than me, I found that Byron Bay Chili Salsa to be a smidge too hot for me!
Oh really?! We only had a tiny bit on burritos the first time not dipping a corn chip in. Will let you know it’s dipping status.
As always, an interesting lineup in your kitchen Claire! The honey mousse sounds really interesting! I wonder if it ever deflates (like if exposed to high temps)?
It hasn’t deflated yet in my hot Brisbane kitchen but I’m not sure really. I guess eventually it would?
I’ve been to that IGA! It’s a good one. I love the look of your mystery box. What gorgeous looking produce. And I wish my freezer was a well stocked as that! xx
Isn’t it great. I can’t believe I’ve only really just discovered IGA. I used to think it was a bit of a dodgy supermarket. Oh the excitement!
Ooo! A well stocked freezer indeed! What a nice treat to have a stockpile like that from such a good quality source. And your fruit looks so pretty too- I do a delivery service like that over the summer and absolutely love it. You’re making me miss the warm weather! Lovely kitchen Claire
I was so happy to find Bonnie Beef Emilie. Having things delivered is wonderful. Lazy yes but I think it’s a little bit exciting!
I love the loose bottom cake pan. I have two of them- but they are shallower than yours- and I don’t think the tops look like your cake, either!
The honey fluff looks wonderful- I have whipped honey but never into a fluff- and I don’t think I want to risk my mixer!
Your kitchen is warm and inviting and filled with so many wonderful things, thanks for sharing!
They’re great aren’t they? So easy to get the cake out. No definitely don’t risk the mixer! Thanks for visiting Heidi!
It looks like you have a very well stocked kitchen this month, Claire. That honey mousse looks wonderful – I’ve never seen anything like that before. Killing a KitchenAid is a high price to pay though.
I wouldn’t be trying it in my mixer that’s for sure!
From experience, most recipes turn out that shape in the push pan – that’s just one of the reasons why it’s so excellent! Did you squeal when it worked when you used the can to push it up? I totally did. It works water tight for cheesecakes too. You will love it
I’ve made three already it’s great isn’t it?! I may have…
Your freezer is definitely well stocked! My daughter asked me tonight when we were having steak for dinner. Wah? And man, that honey mousse looks good!
Must have a craving! The honey was seriously good.
Lots of good things in your kitchen, as always Claire. The cake tin sounds like a good investment!
I think it is Lizzy!
Hi Claire. I just bought one of those pans. I have been looking for one for ages. Its a bonus that it has the silicone seal. Everything else looks good too. You certainly have a well stocked kitchen.
They’re good aren’t they?!
Claire, what interesting things in your kitchen this month! Love the look of that cake tin! The honey looks amazing too! And there’s something very comforting about having a freezer well stocked with really good meat, isn’t there?

There is indeed Celia. I feel as though I could feed a crowd without leaving the house.
