Totally timeless

The question of what it takes to be timeless makes for a great discussion over any kitchen table. For the Volkswagen Polo design team in their studios, that question and its many answers ultimately led to a new version of a car that doesn’t follow fads or fashions, but has understated elegance and refined style.

Away with fads, it’s time to let all things timeless triumph. And so as a way of marking the arrival of the new Polo, Volkswagen came up with the idea of creating an essential Top 50, a list that celebrates the elusive design and quality of timelessness within fashion, food, design, music and TV shows . For all Good Food readers especially, your exclusive mission is to help in the Vote for the top 10 in Food.

We've identified 20 Timeless food items across 4 key food categories Kitchen cupboard ingredients; Signature dishes; Kitchen must-haves; Iconic desserts. Visit the category page and you can read about each item, including tips and exclusive recipes, then simply vote for your favourite in every category.
