Each of these almond shortbreads is studded with a whole clove, a symbol of the Magi's gift of spices to the Christ Child. Kourambiedes are served in the Greek community not only at Christmas, but also christenings, weddings, name days — in fact, at all festive occasions.

Chocolate Truffles for Two

Chocolate Truffles for Two

Jul 14, 2005

This recipe makes six creamy, rich dark chocolate truffles — a perfect accompaniment to a cup of espresso or as a little surprise to wrap and rest on someone's pillow. For a twist, add 2 tsp (10 mL) orange, hazelnut or almond liqueur to the melted chocolate mixture.

Chinese Broccoli Amandine

Chinese Broccoli Amandine

Nov 12, 2009

Chinese broccoli - or Gailan - is slightly more bitter than broccoli but without a strong cabbagey flavour. Look for unblemished stalks with tightly closed flowerheads in a well-stocked chain grocery store or an Asian supermarket. Simple flavours of almond and olive oil make this side dish compatible with just about any main.

Jan 7, 2009

The hint of spice adds just the right amount of flavour to this ever-popular simple dessert. You can add 2 tbsp (25 mL) golden raisins or cranberries, or garnish with a sprinkle of toasted sliced almonds. If you want to serve it cold, just add 1/4 cup (50 mL) more milk.

Peanut Butter Granola

Peanut Butter Granola

May 16, 2006

Although this crunchy cereal isn't a low-calorie version of granola, the heart-healthy monounsaturated fats found in peanut butter and almonds make it a better choice than cereals and cereal bars that contain trans-fatty acids. Dried blueberries and cranberries are loaded with antioxidants, but you can use any dried fruit you have on hand.

Chocolate Pear Frangipane Tartlets with Sugar Crackle

Chocolate Pear Frangipane Tartlets with Sugar Crackle

Dessert

These pretty tartlets are brimming with a rich almond-flavoured filling. You can tell Forelle pears apart from other types because of their small size and pale green and red-spotted skin. Create a pear-shaped design on top of your tartlets by fanning out the sliced pears, skin side facing away from the centre, in a symmetrical fashion.

Flaky turnovers with a tart cherry and rich ricotta filling are a welcome addition to any table. Look for butter puff pastry in the freezer section of your grocery store and thaw in the refrigerator overnight. For an extra layer of crunch, sprinkle 1/4 cup chopped hazelnuts or sliced almonds onto the turnovers before baking.

Firefly Tarts

Firefly Tarts

Jul 3, 2016

Playful and bright, these tarts come to life as fireflies with the help of lime curd–lit bottoms and almond wings. To carefully remove the tart shells from the pan, cover them tightly with a kitchen towel, invert and tap the edge of the pan on the counter to release the shells. Eat any remaining filling right out of the bowl. It's that good!
