This feature, written by Thomas Tarurongo Wynne,takes a thought-provoking look at misconceptions of cultural identity in the Cook Islands, particularly in regard to the cultural experiences we present to tourists. Wynne, who moved home to the Cook Islands in 2011, is a counsellor at Araura College on Aitutaki.

I love soups whatever the season, most of all cold in Summer and warm in Autumn and Winter. This is for me a nice way of eating vegetables and stay hydrated but also enjoy a nice meal that will get me full. This recipe was published two years ago but I decided it was time to bring some freshness to some of them whether it is for the pictures or the recipe itself for the delight of our taste buds. For this yummy cream, you'll just need some chestnut mushrooms and basic ingredients you must have in your cupboards and 30 minutes later, you're ready to eat! No need to say more, the recipe is as simple as its ingredients. --> French version: here Cream of chestnut mushroom soup Prep time + cook time : 30 minutes For 2 liters (8 cups) of soup, you will need : - 2 knobs of butter - 2 shallots - 500 g (17,6 oz) fresh chestnut mushrooms (+ a few more for decoration) - 1 liter (4 cups) vegetable stock - 15 to 20 cl (1 cup or less) double cream Heat the butter in a large saucepan, peel and slice the shallots finely then sizzle them on low heat for a few minutes - they mustn't get brown! Meanwhile, gently brush the mushrooms with a clean damp dish towel, put a few aside. Cut the base of the mushrooms then cut them coarsely into pieces. Add the mushrooms to the shallots, let them brown for a few minutes then add the hot broth and leave to cook on medium heat for 15 minutes. Mix with a (hand) blender, add all of some of the double cream and mix again. Pour the cream into bowls or soup plates, cut the base of the remaining mushrooms, slice them and place them on the soup, the raw mushrooms will add some texture to your creamy soup, it's delicious! Yum

While spending our tropical honeymoon on the island of Bora Bora, Mark and I did some heavy research, finding the best restaurants, dishes, and cuisine favorites on the island. Working closely with our hotel concierge, we dinned at a few restaurants that were too spectacular not to share with you! I honestly think we enjoyed the absolute best bites in Bora Bora and I loved every fork-full of it. Whenever Mark and I travel, we love experiencing new cultures through their cuisine. To truly experience a country, you need to eat their food! Each dish tells a story about how that country came

Comment moderniser un grand classique de la cuisine et en faire un plat moderne.

a little taste of the maldives for a sunny weekend morning. i adapted a recipe from one of my favourite asian fusion cookbooks; the six senses. all you need are a couple of small bananas which you mash using a fork, then add 2 teaspoons of castor sugar, 1/4 tsp of baking powder, 2 tablespoons of flour and a dash of vanilla essence. divide the mixture into thirds, then shallow fry using ground nut oil for a couple of minutes on either side until golden ~ voilà!
