Whitebait fritters

One of the things I especially love in Italy is the produce, that's not to denigrate the produce found here in australia, there are just some things we don't get and if we do they are quite pricey and not necessary at their best.

Proper whitebait or bianchetti are one of those things. Sure, you can find things called whitebait at the fishmongers but they look more like sardines. What I'm referring to are those itsy bitsy almost silverfish sized whitebait - you can buy them but they are usually frozen and from New Zealand.

In all my time I've never seen them here (perhaps I've been looking in the wrong places) so imagine my surprise when I found these local whitebait happily sitting on display at the fishmongers.

Breakfast Orange Cake

When I first spotted this recipe by Philippe Mouchel for a "Breakfast Orange Cake" I knew that I was going to make it. Surprisingly, it wasn't because the idea of having a cake for breakfast seems awfully naughty and just the type of thing I'd do. No, the reason was that it would give me the opportunity to immediately use this jar of dried orange peel I'd just bought.
