Flavour combination challenge
Here's where we share some flavour combinations that we are in love with. A few, like coffee and chocolate, peanut butter and jam, cheese and Vegemite and chocolate and orange are well-known.
However, other flavour combinations are out there. Combinations that may be strange, unusual, non-intuitive... or just plain weird.
Here's some of my personal favourites, some standard and some not:
- Pineapple and mint
- Watermelon and rosewater
- Chocolate and chili
- Rosemary and lemon
- Chicken and bananas
- Popcorn and furikake
- Pork and blackberry
- Chili and lime
I know my mum used to have a thing for mushrooms and dark soy sauce.
A few years ago, Gourmet Traveller published some other, less well-known, but just as mind-blowing fruity flavour combinations:- Grapes and tarragon
- Stonefruits and lavender
- Orange and bay leaf
- Figs and thyme
- Cherries and rosemary
Send in the other flavour combinations that rock your world...
