Mānawatia a Matariki!
The rising of Matariki (a cluster of stars also known as the Pleiades) marks the beginning of the Māori New Year. Happy Māori New Year from the team at NZ Compare!
It is a wonderful time to reflect, to connect with whānau (family), with our taiao (environment), and to celebrate what has passed and what is to come. We hope you have a warm and safe Matariki.
Spice up your winter
When it’s cold outside, there's nothing quite like being inside the cosy warmth of a kitchen infused with the aroma of spices. But did you know that beyond their aromatic allure, these spices harbour a treasure trove of health benefits?
From the fiery kick of chilli to the sweet warmth of cinnamon, each spice brings not only flavour but also a host of nutrients and healing properties to our winter dishes. So, whether you're sipping on mulled wine, indulging in gingerbread, or savouring a hearty stew, every bite promises to not just please your palate but also contribute to your overall wellbeing.
