How to choose wine & champagne
When buying mussels or clams, make sure they're closed, and discard any shells that haven't opened once cooked. Shrimps, langoustines and prawns are best bought with the head and shell on, as that keeps them fresher. Try this easy starter idea.
Mussels with parsley & wine recipe
To cook the ultimate steak, make sure the frying pan is searing hot, and don't add more than 2 steaks to the pan at once. Allow the steaks to rest for 3-5 minutes before serving. Our succulent main course is the perfect choice.
Cooking with chocolate
When melting chocolate, place it in a bowl over a pan of
simmering water. Make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water,
otherwise the chocolate will burn.Try a delicious dessert
