Delicious February 2010 review

This month's Delicious has a beautiful cover - light, summery and tasty looking.  It came with a calico library book bag (between A4 and A3 size with short handles) with an ice cream cone printed on the front of the bag, which was a nice suprise.  Though the magazine has been around for a while this is the first All-Australian issue - usually there are a smattering of Jamie Oliver/Rick Stein/Gordon Ramsay recipes.  
Especially helpful in the magazine is the recipe index right near the back of the magazine - this makes it super easy to find a recipe, presuming you can remember the title of the recipe.  The index is helpfully divided up into starters, mains, sides and sweet. There were 58 recipes in this month's mag - 15 starters, 24 mains, 13 sweets and a handful of sides. 

Recipes that I definitely want to make:
  • Brioche french toast
  • Asparagus salad with poached eggs
  • Heirloom tomato tart with goat's cheese
  • Pumpkin lemonade scones
  • Trout with crunchy smashed potatoes
  • Spiced rice salad
A lot of the other recipes sound delicious, but contain ingredients I don't enjoy the taste of  (rosewater, pork chops, smoked eel).
