Boeuf Bourguignon

Boeuf Bourguignon

Dec 15, 2008

The secret to meltingly tender beef is all in the right cut: a well-marbled cross-rib pot roast. Bourguignon means as prepared in Burgundy, a district synonymous with Pinot Noir wine. So it makes sense to use a Burgundy or New World Pinot Noir both for braising and serving.

Guests will never know how simple this elegant appetizer is to make! The secret is our shortcut ingredient: prepared puff pastry. For the prettiest presentation, use sweet potatoes that are even in width.

Toad in the hole (Sausages in Pudding Batter)

Toad in The Hole (Sausages in Pudding Batter)

Plump pork sausages, crispy Yorkshire pud and a rich onion gravy come together to make this family favourite.

An everlasting favourite of children, this dish is known and loved by most British people as sausages (the toad) cooked in Yorkshire pudding batter (the hole). But it wasn’t always so. In 1861, Mrs. Beeton described a version that used steak and kidney instead of sausages, while other early recipes called for cheap offcuts or leftovers of any kind of meat . The Art of Cookery (1747) even includes a recipe for “pigeon in a hole.” Sausages became integral to toad in the hole during World War I – perhaps as a way to
stop them exploding in the pan when frying – and the dish rapidly became a national hit.

Saffron adds a subtle accent to this deep-dish pie with its luxurious mix of seafood. Expect raves! You can replace the lobster with 12 oz (375 g) bay scallops; just simmer in cooking liquid until opaque, about 3 minutes.

Crispy Salmon on Braised Vegetables and Spinach Mash

Crispy Salmon on Braised Vegetables and Spinach Mash

Aug 5, 2013

There is nothing quite like salmon skin cooked to crispy perfection. I regularly make this for dinner parties and have converted many a fish-skin hater. The secret to the crispness is cooking the fish 90 percent of the way through on the skin side (in a nonstick pan!); the key to maintaining it is serving the fish skin side up so that the moisture from the fish and vegetables doesn't turn it soggy. Don't try to turn the salmon too early; if it's sticking to the pan, it's not ready to turn. – Annabelle Waugh, Food director

Country Pâté

Country Pâté

Nov 7, 2011

Seasoning is key to a good pâté. This recipe may seem to have a lot of salt, pepper and spices, but the flavours mellow as the pâté cures. Serve with Dijon mustard, baguette slices and cornichons for an authentic French experience.

Roast Beef with Mushroom Gravy

Roast Beef with Mushroom Gravy

Apr 4, 2009

Oven roast cuts of beef, such as sirloin tip and inside and outside round, are less expensive than premium cuts and can make fine roasts. However, because they are less marbled with fat, they need help to keep them succulent. Here we use a tasty garlic-and-herb-infused butter to do just that.

Chicken and Biscuits

Chicken and Biscuits

Jul 14, 2005

Chicken stewed with tasty root vegetables has long been a favourite coast to coast. In West Vancouver, Janey Purvis bakes her stewed chicken under a blanket of flaky biscuits. This dish never fails to win raves from family, friends and neighbours. It can be mostly made in advance and kept refrigerated for a day. Then just make the biscuits and bake with the stew.

Mixed Rice Stuffing With Caramelized and Crispy Shallots

Mixed Rice Stuffing With Caramelized and Crispy Shallots

Dec 1, 2014

Rice replaces bread in this hearty gluten-free stuffing. Slowly caramelized shallots add layers of flavour, while a sprinkling of crispy fried shallots delivers a satisfying crunch. The rice mixture is best made the day of, but if you'd like to do some prep work ahead of time, chop the veggies and caramelize the shallots the day before.

Curried Beef Patties

Curried Beef Patties

Jun 2, 2006

The pressures of making dinner after a busy workday and long commute leave little time in the evenings for Gail and Amber to spend together. These patties freeze well, so making them together on the weekend is a great way to share quality time and free up weeknights. To complete the meal, add a green salad and yogurt with fruit for dessert.
