Award Winning Dips
By Jackie McMillan
Anmarie Dabinet and Steve Ingram left their advertising jobs to begin creating their own line of gourmet dips and savoury pita bits, in the idyllic Pittwater setting of Paradise Beach. Their company, Paradise Beach Purveyors, was recently honoured at the 2008 Dairy Industry Association of Australia Awards with one Gold Award, and four Silver Awards.
Their Lime & Lemongrass Seafood Dip took out the highest accolade. When you consider it contains a generous serve of fresh cooked prawns and quality smoked trout with lemongrass and mild green chilli spice paste, I’m sure you can imagine why the judges got so excited about it! In the silver category are their Tzatziki, Smoked Trout & Chives Dip, Smoked Salmon & Wasabi Dip and Classic Basil Pesto. While it might not have won an award in this competition, I remain a fan of the Caramelised Onion Hommus which is made with balsamic onion confit.
Paradise Beach Purveyors products are available all around Australia. You can also find out more about their range online at: www.paradisebeach.ws
