Make your own - Lobster Paella
Paella is perhaps the most famous of all Spanish dishes; the name Paella refers to the pan in which the dish is cooked, with arroz being the Spanish name for rice. For a long time Paella has been seen in Britain as a poor version of the Italian Risotto, kept warm and served in long buffets in hotels in Spanish holiday resorts, but Paella is truly a great dish: easy to make, fun to share and great to taste.
Wine-matching wines with food
Learning about wine, its varieties and characteristics, and how to match food to wine. The right combination between food and wine is a source of ultimate bliss for every connoisseur.

Herbs
Summer is the season to experiment with fragrant herbs – whether you pick them from your garden or forage for them in the supermarket. Don’t be afraid to experiment with fresh herbs in large amounts – some recipes can benefit from a decent handful. You’ll also get more significant health benefits – including vitamins, antioxidants and other valuable phytochemicals. Use these herbs to pep up a simple low-fat dish (replacing other less healthy seasonings such as salt) and do yourself good.
