Insalata Caprese with Balsamic

September 10, 2013 by Dale 3 Comments

Ahh…  the flavours of the Mediterranean. There is an elemental purity to Mediterranean food which is hard to describe and which can really only be experienced. So elemental is it, that it is a challenge in my experience to fully participate outside of the region itself. You can taste the fire of the sun, the…

Pork Souvlaki

September 9, 2013 by Dale 3 Comments

Souvlaki is one of the easiest meals in my arsenal. It is one of those ‘go-to’ meals I do when I need something quick. Therefore, when I walk through the meat section of a grocery store and I see per-seasoned and skewered souvlaki, I shake my head every time. I have no idea why anyone…

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,…

Grilled Ratatouille

September 2, 2013 by Dale 3 Comments

Ratatouille…. I’ll wager it is one of those dishes that leaves very few on the fence. I’d also wager the distribution of fence dwellers isn’t even. What better challenge, then, than to make a classic dish whose heyday may be past but whose opportunity for a triumphant return remains. I previously remarked that if you…

Grilled Prawns with Lime and Peaches

August 30, 2013 by Dale 3 Comments

Some relationships are meant to be … some will be deep and lasting, intrinsic in their ties. Others will be friendships, casual acquaintances, passerbys even. Tomatoes and basil; peanut butter and chocolate; lobster and butter. These are intrinsic pairings. When the bok choy arrived in my CSA bin, I thought I had in my head…

Thai Salad with Napa Cabbage

August 28, 2013 by Dale 1 Comment

Sweet ♦ Salty ♦ Sour ♦ Spicy ♦ Aromatic Some would define the classic Thai flavours as simply Sweet, Salty, Sour, which they are, but I like to think that it is a quintet that makes for most Thai food, not just a trio. And like any great band, it is harmony of playing together that creates memorable moments….

Caprese Frittata with Mozzafina, Fresh Tomato and Zucchini

August 26, 2013 by Dale 3 Comments

Ah! Sunday morning breakfast. There are few thing in life as noble in their ability to slow time down and create a pace of existence to which we can breathe the day full. The zucchini in my CSA share continue to challenge me and I continue to mount the hill but I’m now starting to…

Moussaka

August 24, 2013 by Dale 6 Comments

Moussaka

Some things in life are inevitable. Put enough eggplants in a person’s CSA share and something Greek like the ubiquitous Moussaka itself is certain to appear eventually! Does Moussaka need an introduction, really? Made well, it is an incredible dish with the richness of a stew and the full satisfaction of summer. And I swear,…

Maple-Lemon Mint Quinoa with Grilled Zucchini and Dried Cranberries

August 22, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

What do we name our creations? It’s not like naming a newborn where you can easily choose a family member or favourite character in a novel. My ability to choose the right name will determine whether you’re reading this right now or have passed it over, dismissing this as another trendy quinoa recipe. Recipes so…

Swiss Chard with Bacon and Cranberries

August 21, 2013 by Dale 2 Comments

When a rainbow of Swiss chard showed up in my CSA Bin this past week, I was in the midst of a bacon and pancetta obsession. In one meal, bacon showed up in three separate dishes (Caesar Salad, Tuscan Chicken, and Risotto) … but not fully sated by just this, bacon then swept into my…
