Together, water, onions and time, turn water into broth, bland into savoury and thin into thick.

Johannesburg’s caterer-to-the-stars, Vicky Crease has given a traditional South African recipe a decadent new twist. Using another South African classic, Castle Milk Stout as one of the ingredients, Crease calls her creation a ‘Stoutlicious Milk Tart’. “Last year I created a Beeramisu dessert, using Castle Milk Stout in this traditional Italian dessert, and it was a great success. So I had to really think out of the box to try and beat that, and it came to me that Milk Tart is such a South African favourite, that it was possibly something I could put a new spin on,” Crease said. “Who can resist fresh cream, infused with Castle Milk Stout, to create a dessert which is cool for the summer months and also not too heavy as an after-dinner treat.” The caramel shard adds a hint of sweet and salty into the mix - right on trend according to Crease. For those who would like to try it at home, here’s the recipe:  read more
