Friday Night Squash Fritters with Yoghurt-Feta Sauce

October 14, 2013 by Dale 6 Comments

The squash are coming! The squash are coming! Ok, truth be told, they’ve been coming for awhile. Right out of the CSA gate, I had to contend week after week with summer squash and zucchini in particular. But for the past month, the misnamed “winter” squash have been taking up positions around my kitchen and…

Chocolate Zucchini Cake (Gluten-Free)

September 29, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

As mentioned in my last post, three staples of my CSA shares have seemed both constant in their delivery and therefore a constant challenge to use too. The inspiration of what to do with my last batch of zucchini came through my ruminations in September as I prepared to share a “cherished Canadian recipe.” In…

Minestrone with Chard and Prosciutto

September 28, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

My CSA shares have given me three challenges related to the regularity and volume of certain bounties: zucchini, kale, and chard. The first of these veggies I’ve managed very well; the kale is getting used as well, but with less imagination; the chard, however, has been a harder test. Zucchini is ‘easy’ by comparison because…

Stuffed Spaghetti Squash with Black Bean Ragù

September 23, 2013 by Dale 1 Comment

Plating the Spaghetti Squash

There is nothing complicated about this creation. It takes a bit of chopping and nothing more than a bit more time for cooking. Having said that, I did employ a couple of techniques that are a bit atypical of spaghetti squash which is usually baked, scooped with a fork to create the tell-tale sinews of…

Pickled (Shishito) Peppers …

September 22, 2013 by Dale 16 Comments

Confessions: my name is not Peter and I don’t pick peppers. However, hypothetically, if Dale received a quarter of a peck of Shishito peppers in his CSA share, how many pickled peppers could he make? Well, it turns out the answer isn’t very straight forward because it depends on how you prepare the peppers and…

Roasted Corn Salad

September 19, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

What’s the difference between a salad and a salsa, besides the language? The difference is “sauce” (which is what salsa translates). With the end of summer and the end of fresh corn nearing, I was craving corn to form the basis of salad number four in my five course salad night … and I wasn’t looking…

Grilled Fennel and Orange Salad

September 16, 2013 by Dale 6 Comments

When the fennel showed up in my CSA share last week, I knew what salad number three was going to be in my five course salad night. I also knew I wanted citrus in it as a change of pace, even though the flavour isn’t exactly in season. But because of the season, I wasn’t…

Watermelon Salad

September 13, 2013 by Dale 5 Comments

Those who’ve read my posts for a bit know that my values around food are hugely influenced by eating local and in season. I love the purity and simplicity of certain foods and dishes … which is why I unapologetically posted my own caprese salad a few days ago. When a whole watermelon showed up…

My Grandma’s Hamburger Soup (De/Re-constructed)

September 6, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

There is comfort food … and then there is food that loves. As you will read in my next post (tomorrow’s installment in the Canadian Food Experience Project), this is the most cherished Canadian recipe I know. It is a part of me, part of my family, part of my heart. Recreating this dish, however,…
