Without getting into <strong>the</strong><br />

technical details, <strong>the</strong><br />

art of caramelising<br />

<strong>the</strong> natural sugars<br />

in protein and vegetables and<br />

modifying <strong>the</strong> molecular structure<br />

through exposure to heat is simply<br />

why we are all here. Personally, I am<br />

fascinated by <strong>the</strong> change in texture,<br />

To Grill<br />

or to bbQ<br />

that is <strong>the</strong> question<br />

colour, aroma and taste of food as it<br />

transforms and becomes something<br />

else. It’s a little bit of Chemistry, little<br />

Biology and a whole lot of Art!<br />

Of course this Heat can be applied<br />

through various methods using<br />

different tools, and that’s for ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />

day to discuss, but <strong>the</strong> one constant<br />

is a little bit of heat, ei<strong>the</strong>r direct<br />

or indirect goes a long way. Which<br />

brings me to <strong>the</strong> subject!<br />

Living in this part of <strong>the</strong> world, <strong>the</strong><br />

window to get outside and prepare<br />

food on open fire is only about 3-4<br />

months out of <strong>the</strong> year. Sure you can<br />

fire up <strong>the</strong> grill in July or August too,<br />
