Recipes: Wasabi & nori chargrilled corn, and cheeseburger

While it’s hard to deny the start of 2017 has been sadly devoid of sunshine with unseasonably cold weather sweeping the country, I am optimistic there are sunnier days ahead. When those days do arrive these are a few of the recipes I have up my sleeve for when we fire up the barbecue and invite around friends to benefit from a much-needed dose of vitamin E!

John Saker: Why it’s important to give your wine some air

Wine is not good grape juice gone bad, as it’s sometimes described. It’s good grape juice gone half bad. It represents a pause in the journey towards all-out, vinegary badness, a pause brought about by human intervention. Much of that is aimed at keeping oxygen at bay.

Forage North Canterbury brings together a fabulous feed

“Do you want to go diving; as in snorkelling rather than scuba?” Of course, I say; then immediately regret it. The water will be cold, and I hate swimming in cold water, even with a wetsuit on.

Experts clash over economic effects for Stoke of proposed Richmond Countdown

Experts remain deadlocked on what effect a proposed Countdown supermarket at the entrance to Richmond would have on the Stoke town centre.

Despite a hearing and conferences, retail experts for the supermarket proponent, Progressive Enterprises Ltd, cannot agree with the experts for Tasman District Council, Nelson City Council and Tinline Properties Ltd, the owner and operator of Richmond Mall.

TDC policy planner Jacqui Deans says that due to a lack of evidence, she is “unable to conclude that significant economic and social effects for Stoke centre in particular will not flow … and therefore, I am still unable to make an overall recommendation” on a plan change request that would pave the way for the new Countdown.
