Tips for making the best hamburgers:

 

  1. Use high-quality minced beef with a high fat content (at least 20%) for maximum flavor and juiciness.
  2. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper before forming the patties.
  3. Don’t overwork the meat when forming the patties. This can make the burgers tough.
  4. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty before cooking. This will help the burgers cook evenly and prevent them from puffing up.
  5. Cook the burgers over high heat to sear the outside and create a crust. Then, lower the heat to finish cooking the inside.
  6. Cook the burgers to your desired level of doneness.
  7. Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving, this will help the juices redistribute and make the burger more juicy.
  8. Finally, serve them with your favorite toppings, you can add cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mayo, mustard, or any other toppings you like.
  9. Also, you can always experiment with different seasonings and add-ins like garlic, herbs, Worcestershire sauce, or egg to make your burger unique and delicious.

And of course, the most important part…. sandwich between a soft and fluffy Coupland’s Hamburger Bun which you can just so happen order right here!

whip up the perfect platter – a great way to entertain guests

 

Platters are a great way to entertain guests. Not only are they easy to prepare and serve, there’s always something for everyone on them! With so many different options on how to prepare a platter, understandably it can get a bit overwhelming trying to put together a gram-worthy board! Let us talk you through some of our top tips below.

 

The prep:

Before tackling the food, ensure you have your base sorted. A chopping board or wooden board works great. You want to make sure it’s not too small for your food, but also not so large that you’ll be left with empty spaces. Alternatively, having multiple boards of varying sizes can also work.

 

The food:

The key to platters is variety. Anything goes really, but we recommend selecting your products from a few key categories below to ensure there is a great mix of flavours.

 

  • SWEETS | Break up savoury flavours with some sweet treat items. We love using our Biscuit Bites, Rumballs or Tarts. For something even more fancy, cut up our NEW dessert Brownie into some bite-sized pieces.
  • CHEESE | Depending on how many people you’re serving, 1 –  2 different styles of cheese are a great place to start.
  • DIPS | Think hummus, chunky dips, pesto etc. Check out our delicious Chickpea Hummus Recipe here.
  • CRACKERS & BREAD | We have a great range of crackers that are great for dips, as bases for toppings or enjoying alone.
  • MEAT | Spicy salami, chorizo, ham…. whatever you fancy!
  • FRESH | Grapes, cherry tomatoes, strawberries etc.
  • EXTRAS | Why not add some marinated olives, stuffed bell peppers or nuts?

 

Overall, platters are a great way to entertain your guests – they cater to groups of all sizes and all different tastebuds. If you do create platters featuring any of our products, we’d absolutely love to see! Share them with us on our social pages, links below.

Looking for a way to use up those leftover Hot Cross Buns lying around? Why not try a classic bread & butter pudding with a twist, perfect for elevating this classic Easter treat. This pudding is perfect revitalizing those leftover less than fresh buns you may have.

 

Ingredients:

 

 

Method:
  • Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Grease a baking dish with butter.

  • Mix eggs, milk, cream, caster sugar and vanilla essence together in a bowl. Pour this mixture over the buns and set aside to soak for at 10-20 minutes.
  • Bake in your oven for 30 minutes, ensuring that the top of the buns are golden and the custard has set.
  • To serve, dust with icing sugar and serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.

 

Top Tips:

This pudding is also great for making a day ahead, simply heat up in a slightly warm oven covered with foil.
