Dry roast caraway seeds in a dry pan for 1 or 2 minutes or just until fragrant. Set aside. Heat oil and cook onion until soft and translucent for about 5-7 minutes on medium low heat. Add garlic, chopped carrot, beetroot, roasted whole caraway seeds,  beef stock and bring to the boil. Reduce and simmer about 45 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Allow the soup to cool slightly. Using a stick blender, blend soup until smooth or the preferred consistency. If too thick, add hot water. You can also puree in batches in the blender if you prefer.

Serve with crème fraiche and chopped chives. Can also be served cold.

Recipe: A simple and wholesome Beetroot Soup

It’s all happening in Canberra where premium beef producer Claystone Foods is meeting the market for discerning consumers as well as providing meals for our four-legged friends! Dynamic duo Stace and Mish Allen arm a mix of Angus and Hereford cattle on the Hoskinstown Plains. The pair have equally balanced the conscious breeding of their herd and the sustainable custodianship on the land over many years, creating a working farm that connects the consumer to the country.

The production of premium quality meats appeals to consumers who want to make ethical meat consumption choices and the sourcing of additional free-range, antibiotic and hormone-free meats from fellow regenerative farmers, results in a range of high-quality butchered cuts. Locals and visitors can call by the on-farm multi-award winning butchery or stop by the Capital Farmers Markets on a Saturday. Door-to-door delivery is also offered across the Canberra region and into Sydney. 

But it’s not only us humans who get to enjoy the range from Claystone, our fur babies also get to benefit! As with all good farming practices, Claystone places huge importance on reducing waste; this, coupled with the desire to feed their farm dogs high-nutrition meat from the farm, led to the realisation of diversifying into the pet food market and filling a gap for vet-endorsed, nutritionally-balanced meals. 

And so, Pawstone Pet Meals was born which has led to the launch of an exciting crowdfunding campaign! Activated during April 2024, the opportunity for investment is designed to support the growth of the company both within Australia and internationally and position Claystone Foods as the undisputed market leader for meals with reliable nutrition for the whole family, pets included! 

Expressions of Interest are now open for investors interested in supporting this incredible vision. Learn more about Claystone Foods and Pawstone crowding funding campaign here: www.birchal.com/company/claystone

Tahina (noun) is a paste made from sesame seeds, most familiar to many as the base ingredient for hummus. However, this Middle Eastern creamy paste has countless applications. It is particularly delicious alongside the delectable green or red falafels made by Melbourne-based company and namesake, Tahina Goods. 

As an extension of their incredibly popular Middle Eastern Tahina Bar in Northcote (Melbourne), founders Roy Sassonkin and Natalie Powell have spent years perfecting their falafel and sauce recipes to give customers a taste of their street food flavours at home.

Tahina Goods falafels are produced free from artificial flavours, colours and preservatives with a focus on recipes developed from fresh, healthy ingredients. Packaged beautifully in easy-to-grab take-home packs, the falafels are gluten-free, a breeze to prepare and perfect combined with salads, in wraps or pita pockets or added to a platter.

The herbaceous, aromatic and zesty Green Falafel is a blend of chickpeas, parsley, coriander and mint. Equally appealing, the Red Falafel is a vibrant blend of activated chickpeas, red capsicum and brown onions with smoked paprika, red chillies and cumin. Made by hand, with a combination of locally-grown ingredients and spices from abroad, the falafels are a dynamic variation on the traditional falafel. 

A star accompaniment is the Zhoug sauce. Based on the traditional Yemeni hot sauce, the Tahina Goods version boasts a flavour bomb combination of pickled heirloom Shifka chillies, green chillies, garlic, cumin and extra virgin olive oil with a lavish amount of fresh coriander and parsley, elevating both the flavour and colour.  

A bonus in foodservice preparation that ensures efficiency, Tahina Goods falafels are baked in the oven for 15 minutes, rather than fried in oil, making them even more appealing for busy chefs. The method maintains falafels that are moist on the inside and crispy on the outside, perfect for placing alongside hummus and Zhoug!
