Geoff Jackson of Jackson's Meats in Vancouver likes the salty-sweet combination of soy and brown sugar for his favourite cut – flank steak. “The marinade should taste good as soon as you mix it,” he says.
Developed by up-and-coming Canadian chef Gordon Bailey for Sugar Moon Farm, this dessert will more than satisfy any sweet tooth. Cooking the pecans in maple syrup and brown sugar infuses them with flavour and makes it impossible to eat just one.
Gooey sticky buns are perfect for a crowd on a cosy holiday morning. These may sound like they'd be over-the-top sweet, but they're well balanced. The earthy pumpkin – in both the dough and the filling – reins in all that brown sugar goodness.
Demerara sugar is less refined than regular sugar, so it gives these cookies a rich, creamy, molasses-like flavour with large grains that remain crunchy after cooking. Look for a dark Demerara-style sugar (such as Mr. Goudas, Lantic or Redpath) with other brown sugars in the baking aisle.
This in one of my favourite "go to" recipes when I'm done in by shopping, gardening or if I just don't want to cook that night. It's fast, tasty, and filling! Substituting with Splenda brown sugar makes this very appealing to diabetics or those watching their waist-lines.
Richard Fontaine, chef of Restaurant La Grange de St-Charles in the town of St-Charles-sur-Richelieu, Que., wedded apples with maple in this creamy sugar pie. Granulated maple sugar is widely available in Quebec and sweetens without overpowering the apples. Elsewhere, light brown sugar is a good substitute.
My inspiration for this recipe was from my two year old son who just happens to love butternut squash. Too often as Canadians we make it one way-with brown sugar and butter. I figured it was one of the first foods that the indians introduced to the settlers. what could be more Canadian?
We ocean fish most weekends through the summer months. The thrill of catching a halibut approximately 30 pounds provides the opportunity of making the "perfect halibut cordon blue". To accompany the main is a refreshing salad dish which includes rice, peaches, capsium, celery, onion, saltanos, cashew nuts and dressing. The dressing is olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, fruit chutney and curry.
I love to serve this dish when friends come over for a girls night out, movie night etc. Also, I am asked to bring this dish to every party I go to, everyone just loves it. I have a beautiful pottery dish that works well with this dish, and an other pottery dish that I use for the bread. It is perfect for fall and winter. I use maple syrup instead of brown sugar if it is on hand.
The rich caramel flavour of buttery baked pecans makes these blondies, the brownie's light-coloured cousin, purely irresistible. Be sure to stir the pecans while they're still warm so they don't harden into one big piece.
