Wine Dining: This Caramelised Onion Tarte Tatin is Quick, Easy and Delicious
- Words by Peppermint
After a long day, many of us enjoy a glass of vino. But in a world with so many choices, which drop do you drink? Is food pairing a thing you should care about? How can you impress your mates with the lingo without looking like a right Michael Scott? Weβd advocate for drinking responsibly β not only in terms of consumption but also in credentials.
Founded in 1849 and based in the beautiful Barossa Valley, Yalumba is a family-run business that has worked with the land for over a century. Allowing Mother Nature to guide its processes and championing vineyard biodiversity, a trademark βless is moreβ approach has solidified the brand as a pioneer in low-intervention winemaking. But, with grape power comes grape responsibility, and last year the team solidified its commitment to betterment with the launch of Yalumba GEN β a collection of 100% Certified Organic by the ACO, sustainably made vegan wines.

Like chips and dip or avocado and toast, every hero needs an equally delicious partner. And because good food and great wine is pretty much a no-brainer, in partnership with our friends at Yalumba, we asked vegan chef and champion of seasonal, plant-based cooking Katie White to write us a recipe thatβll pair perfectly with Yalumba GEN Organic Shiraz β available at independent bottle stores across the country.

Fun, fabrics, florals and fab fashion fits by local sewists β what a way to spend a day!
The @LibertyFabrics Showcase hosted by @2GreenZebras and @Regent_Street_Fabrics in Brisbane/Meanjin was a spectacular event. We learned the history of the iconic Liberty Fabrics from two legends, Mary-Ann Dunkley (Head of Design) and Anna Buruma (Archive Director), browsed stalls bursting with Liberty delights and cheered on our local sewist pals on the runway with the @StyleArc Fashion Parade. A little biased shoutout to our Sewing Manager Laura who graced the catwalk with her gorgeous make (check the bag and shoes!). Well done to all involved. ππΌ
Melbourne/Naarm β itβs your turn this weekend. We canβt wait to see what our Southern friends create for the event.

Wrap dress wardrobe malfunction? Not with the Peppermint Waratah Wrap Dress pattern!β
β
Our number one complaint is wrap dresses flying open in the wind, leaving you clutching a handful of skirt in your paw to avoid a public indecency offence. So we designed the Waratah to make sure this never happens. πͺοΈβ

And yes, you could say we had a lot of fun on this shoot! πβ

Secret pjs all day everyday!
How sweet is this version of our Samford Set pattern - created in collab with Lindsey of @SewToGrow π
From @Claire.Creates.Clothes:
π€π£π’ Colour spot blocking pregnancy friendly set π’π£π€
I wanted some #secretpyjamas that I can wear on the couch when Iβm pregnant and after for breastfeeding, with a top that I can wear out of the house. Welcome the #PeppermintSamfordSet
I made the Samford set top in a size F, one size up from my current bust and itβs the perfect amount of room for my expanding tummy, and will hopefully not be crazy oversized after pregnancy. I used a spotted linen that used to be considered good fabric, blocked with a organic linen sheet that was gifted to me for the sole purpose of being fabric by the lovely @heather_steenholdt
The top came together super quickly and has already had lots of wear - couch, dinner and work βοΈ I even attached the buttons within a week of starting the project, who am I?!
I already had the shorts in the rust linen but never wear them because I donβt like the length or shape at all - they were a pants pattern that I just made shorter. So I cut them to have an inseam of 2.5β and added a 1.5 length ruffle cut at 3β in the contrast spot linen and love them so much more already. Although the shorts will now just be reserved for in house.
Iβve already planned 2 more Samford sets, but will size down to get more post pregnancy wear. And will tackle the pants!
Special thanks to Laura at @peppermintmagazine for sending me the Samford set instructions, you motivated me to put the buttons on before the baby actually arrives! π
