Lemon Risotto with Tuscan Kale

August 19, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

Sex on a plate. Really, I challenge anyone to find a better way to describe risotto. It’s not a dessert, yet it is one of the most sensuous dishes ever devised. When I seriously started down the path of Italian cooking, there were a few dishes on my bucket list to discover, but risotto wasn’t…

Caesar Salad with Grilled Hearts of Romaine

August 15, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

Sometimes, certain things get into my head and like a catchy song they just linger and play over and over again. Such is the notion of grilling romaine lettuce, and idea that took root a few months ago when I first saw mention of it … and, if you’re anything like me, you’re colourfully saying…

Tuscan Chicken with Olives and Bacon … and Wine

August 14, 2013 by Dale 8 Comments

I cannot take credit for this recipe or the brilliant flavour profile that was created; however, I’m happy to share. All credit goes to Joanne, author of her own blog, NYC Fit Food and Fashion! Her own recipe of Chicken with Olives, Rosemary and Pancetta can be found here. Those that know me, though, know…

Vegetarian Tacos with Grilled Zucchini

August 12, 2013 by Dale 8 Comments

When four more beautiful, firm yellow zucchini showed up in last week’s CSA share, the challenge was on. What else could I do with  them that would not only be delicious but would push my envelop. Inspired by the success of my Grilled Salsa a few weeks ago, I thought, hmm: tacos. I knew from…

Asian Red Plum Salsa

August 12, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

The vegetarian tacos and their sauces were nearing completion. I had already made the Avocado-Chimichurri Sauce and the Black Bean and Corn Salsa. What I wanted now was something with a little sweetness and a bit of a kick … something to complement the Argentine and Mexican flavours I was already combining. And I was…

Black Bean and Corn Salsa

August 11, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

With the promise of vegetarian tacos firmly within my grasp, I knew that the dish was going to need some protein to give it some nourishing “staying power.” What better than black beans? They are my favourite in the legume family — I love their crunch, flavour, and their size. Instead of the doing a…

Avocado-Chimichurri Sauce

August 10, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

When a giant globe of curly-leafed parsley showed up in my CSA share last week, I visibly frowned. I really don’t like the stuff and much prefer the milder and softer flat-leaf aka “Italian” parsley I grow myself. However, I was up for my own CSA Challenge and so I considered what to make with it….

Barbecued Ribs with Root Beer Sauce and Baked Apples

August 9, 2013 by Dale 2 Comments

There are certain things I’ll almost never order in a restaurant: steak, pasta, chicken … and pork ribs. It’s not that I don’t like or even, in the case of ribs, love these foods … it is because I’m appalled at what restauranteurs will charge for fare that I can, in almost all cases, make…

Coleslaw

August 7, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

Few salads scream fresh and summer as well as the perennial summer favourite, coleslaw. While the ingredients in coleslaw — which are hardy and store well — make this a great year-round salad, there is something truly exceptional about making this supremely creamy version when the ingredients are young, fresh and in season. So when…

Baked-Barbecued Apples

August 6, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

Growing up with apple orchards all around me, little in life is more comforting than anything with apples. Taken crisp and fresh off the tree, I’m a thief among the leaves and branches. But baked with sugar and cinnamon, the apples become the thief of all life’s problems. Truly, almost nothing goes better with pork…
