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…

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…

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…

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…

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…

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…
