Winter of Food

Your favourite foodie magazine is back with a twist!

Cooking is one of the many pleasures to look forward to in the wintertime, along with cosy sweaters, fuzzy socks, and of course, the hearty meal you get to enjoy after you’ve finished in the kitchen. Munching on comfort food seems more appealing than any other time of year, whether it be for a candle-lit family dinner, couch-friendly date night, or rugged up at an alfresco event with friends. One thing they all have in common? The need to rustle up a hearty meal (or two!).

In this edition of Stockland’s Winter of Food magazine, we’re all about hearty, homecooked meals that are ideal for families and food lovers alike.

We’re excited to offer more interactive content than ever before! This edition is jam-packed with QR codes that unlock bonus recipes, downloadable shopping lists, educational videos, and more.

Like always, we’re eager to share Miguel Maestre’s latest and greatest recipes with you. His mac and cheese ratatouille bake, chocolate brownie, and crème brûleé are sure to turn a cold day into a cosy (and flavourful) one.

Without further ado, let’s dig into the wonderful world of winter feasting. Buen provecho!

Welcome to my favourite foodie magazine, where we’ll embrace the flavours of the cosiest season! It’s true that winter brings out my inner culinary artist, allowing me to create meals that are not only delicious but also capture the essence of winter. It’s a time when we change all our cooking to the pursuit of comfort and we warm our hearts and tastebuds with more slow cooking.

There’s something special about the kitchen becoming a sanctuary, a place where I can pour my heart and soul into creating dishes that warm both the body and the mind. The secret to winter cooking is capturing the season’s most delicious veggies and taking advantage of their nutritious and sweet flavours when roasted. I’m excited to share a new collection of recipes like my bubbling mac and cheese ratatouille bake, best enjoyed straight out of the oven – it’s the perfect combination of gooey cheese and vibrant vegetables. I’ve also revealed a decadent chocolate brownie recipe. The rich cocoa will melt in your mouth and the aroma will fill your home with pure chocolatey bliss. Drawing the magazine to a close is my classic crème brûlèe recipe. The silky-smooth custard hiding beneath a decadent caramelised sugar crust makes it a dessert you’ll be craving throughout the season.

The flavours and aromas of winter warming food are truly magical, which is why I’m excited to invite you to join me as we explore the warmth, flavour, and love that Winter of Food has to offer.

Winter is a special season that needs a little more cooking and a lot more of my favourite ingredient… love!
