Kids will gobble up these easy popcorn treats. Currants and diced apricots can replace the candy.
A side of salmon varies in size depending on its origins and species. Farmed Atlantic salmon is usually 3 to 3-1/2 lb (1.5 to 1.75 kg), and Pacific salmon varies at fishmongers from 1-1/2 to 3 lb (750 g to 1.5 kg) depending on species. Sockeye is small, while King and Chinook are large.
Jostaberries are a gooseberry-black currant hybrid originating in Europe but now grown in western Canada. In order to duplicate their intense flavour and deep colour, we use the original berries.
Use a heavy pan or rolling pin to crush the candy canes, then shake through a fine sieve to remove the powdery bits. Avoid the food processor because it will crush them to dust. Instead of candy canes, you can cut the dough into a variety of holiday shapes.
Use firm pie apples, such as Northern Spy, Ida red or Golden Delicious, for the best texture.
This quick-to-make meal will really satisfy. Serve with crisp celery sticks and radishes.
