And how would madam like it cooked?
Article Abstract:
Bravado and masculinity incline to eating meat rare and some restaurants are unhelpful to customers who prefer medium and well-done meat. Anne Willan, who runs the La Varenne cookery school gives three different cooking times for beef in her book 'French Cookery School.' Meat and animal products are the most common source of food poisoning and in france, Germany and Austria serious outbreaks have arisen from very rare wild boar and horse meat hamburgers. The EC is considering tighter controls on raw mince.

A Chile summer in the middle of winter
Article Abstract:
British shoppers are used to unseasonal fruit and vegetables being sold but political matters put them off South African produce and New Zealand only supplies apples and kiwi fruit. Chile, which has plenty of sun and natural barriers against pests and disease, is a new supplier in 1992. It has exported to America, where sophisticated consumers have influenced growers. Private companies and co-operatives grow new varieties to please the consumer and to meet quality and safety requirements.

A hot Indian summer
Article Abstract:
Parameswaran's Selection of black peppercorns from south-west India is unique in flavour. It is perfumed, pale brown when ground and very hot and spicy. The pepper berries are harvested when completely ripe, unlike most varieties, which are dried after picking. It is labour-intensive as it has to be harvested at different times. Wynad pepper, which is grown in three plantations on the Wynad plateau in Kerala, is considered a superior product in India.
