Steel cut oatmeal

Steel cut oatmeal

Jul 24, 2009

This recipe can be adapted to how ever many days you want to eat oatmeal for, as the ratio is 1/4 cup of steel cut oats to 1 cup of water. I make enough for the work week leaving the weekend open. This can be made at night to make your mornings easier. If you need a change add a teaspoon of your favourite spice. I serve it with covered in flax meal and honey, accompanied by a serving of fruit and a cold boiled egg.

Poppy Seed Wreath

Poppy Seed Wreath

Oct 17, 2012

All over eastern Europe, the poppy seed and honey combination is ubiquitous in breads and pastries during the holiday season. The trick to maximizing the unique flavour of the poppy seeds is to boil and then grind them in a food processor. This brings out the oils in the seeds and turns the filling into a paste. This wreath brings that one-of-a-kind filling to the surface to shine. Moving the rolled-up dough can be difficult, so be sure to roll it up and shape it on the pan that will go into the oven.

Rich, Hearty Vegetarian Chocolate Stout Chili

Rich, Hearty Vegetarian Chocolate Stout Chili

May 13, 2009

I chose this dish because it is so rich and satisfying, that even the biggest meat-eaters wouldn't miss the meat. It's hard to find a good vegetarian Chili Recipe, and I believe this is the best out there. It focuses on complex flavors and it screams "Canadian". A big bowl of chili is the ultimate comfort food. I serve this will a dollop of plain yogurt or sour cream on top, and a sprig of fresh cilantro. And of course with one of my Honey Buttermilk Beer Buns (recipe follows) on the side. This is hands-down the best vegetarian chili out there!

The World's Best Steak Sandwich

The World's Best Steak Sandwich

May 12, 2009

The absolute beauty of this meal is that it is what everyone I know loves: rustic, satisfying, easy to make, un-pretentious but so incredibly delicious that every single person I've ever made it for has requested a 'repeat performance' just days later! I think it's the perfect thing to serve for a casual night of entertaining- serve it with some great red wine (may I suggest a lovely Cabernet Sauvingnon?) and some balsamic & honey dressed arugula. This menu is condusive to a chilled out night full of great conversation and laughter with people you love. I definitely created it for the people I love!

Lake Brome Duck Breast with Cranberry and Kumquat Chutney

Lake Brome Duck Breast with Cranberry and Kumquat Chutney

May 13, 2009

Menu:
Lake Brome Duck Breast with Cranberry and Kumquat Chutney
Oven Roasted Nova Scotia Organic Fingerling Potatoes
Organic Nova Scotia Carrots in Maple Syrup Glaze
Salad of Organic Nova Scotia Micro Greens and Sprouts with Honey Balsamic Vinaigrette and Honey Goat Cheese Puffs

Inspiration: The inspiration for this meal comes from the 100 mile challenge featured on Food Network. I am currently involved with a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) farm here in Nova Scotia and am quite passionate about eating Slow Food, which is locally grown. I want to reduce my carbon footprint by using as many ingredients as possible that come from the province where I live in rather than from afar. It is nice to know, not only where your food comes from, but who grew it as well. Our children are quite excited each week to see our food box arrive, and always wonder what our farmer has sent us. Part of what I like about this recipe is that although it appears complicated, it really is quite simple and requires nothing out of the ordinary for most kitchens these days, with the exception of the kumquats. I have also included the recipes for the side dishes I like to serve with this meal. Preparation time includes preparing and cooking the side dishes as well. There are substitutions for the vegetables, for example using new baby potatoes or baby carrots, and substituting a peppery arugula for the micro greens. Food doesn't have to be pretentious or difficult to taste good. This recipe calls for one duck breast for each person, which for some appetites may be alot. The recipe could be stretched to serve 8, if the breasts are on the larger side. Wine Pairing: Jost L'Acadie Blanc Chardonnay (The Flight of the Silver Dart Commemorative) or Domaine de Grand Pre L'Acadie Blanc

Presentation: When presenting this dish, place a spoonful of the chutney in the centre of a warmed plate. Slice the duck thinly crossways and fan half over either side of the chutney. I place the carrots at one end of the plate with a bit of the glaze and the potatoes at the other, and drizzle balsamic glaze on each plate.

Pure MmmMaple, Molasses and Sweet Mustard Glazed Pork Tenderloin

Pure MmmMaple, Molasses and Sweet Mustard Glazed Pork Tenderloin

May 13, 2009

Pure Canadian maple syrup, pure fancy molasses and sweet mustard blend with the flavour of the two-pepper rub on pork tenderloin for an "mmm..." sweet and spicy finish. Casual entertaining proves far more enjoyable if preparation is fairly simple, allowing the cook an opportunity to benefit along with the guests. Pork tenderloin, properly skinned and cleaned, makes the perfect surface for a dry rub. Rubbed with a simple mixture of freshly ground pepper, cayenne and a dash of salt, the tenderloin can be prepared as far ahead as the night before or just before guests arrive. Initially grilled on high for 10 minutes, it is then brushed with a prepared glaze and finished grilling. Once done, it is removed from the heat and tented with foil for approximately 5-10 minutes. To serve, slice pork and fan around a platter. Drizzle remaining glaze over the meat. Serve with garlic mashed potatoes, steamed honey dill carrots and a fresh garden salad on the side. Alternately, plate individually (pictured).

Grilled Sesame Chicken and Radish Skewers with Orange Salad

Grilled Sesame Chicken and Radish Skewers with Orange Salad

Choose similar-size radishes so they cook evenly. Grilling subdues their sharp flavour and gives them a nice tender-crisp texture. Brushing the sweet, sticky glaze onto the skewers before the last minute of cooking keeps it from burning on the barbecue and preserves the sesame flavour.
