Fragrant Thai “Massaman” Chicken Curry

May 26, 2014 by Dale 3 Comments

I continually come back to Thai food almost every month. It is a cuisine that has much to offer in each and every season from light salads, grilled satay, comforting soups … and, of course, those curries. What I love, love, love about Thai food is how incredibly fragrant a cuisine it is. I can’t…

My Canadian Love Affair

February 7, 2014 by Dale 6 Comments

Food is an extension of my heart. It is not only a part of my physical being, it is how I celebrate and express love. I’ve been in love with food for a very long time. And, for almost as long, I’ve been an incurable romantic. It seems fitting, then, that my personal passion for…

Pomegranate and Vodka Glazed Chicken Breast

February 6, 2014 by Dale 2 Comments

Cooking for me is passion … and my passion is expressed in my cooking. It is also a very elemental process involving fire, water, and the fruits of the earth. And when I breathe these together, these elements are transformative. I love the story of Persephone; it is a story of love, albeit a complicated…

How to Debone a Chicken Breast … and Leave the Skin On

February 3, 2014 by Dale 4 Comments

The challenge with your ‘everyday’ chicken breast is that, when cooked, it becomes dry. And while any chef will say that the ideal preparation would entail cooking a chicken breast bone-in and skin-on (because the bones add flavour and the skin protects the breast and keeps it moist and juicy), many diners don’t want to…

Indian Butter Chicken

February 1, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

Leftovers never looked so good…. This is my take on the classic Indian butter chicken, a dish that certainly gives other classics like Alfredo a serious run for their money in terms of how to tantalize the mouth with the full-fat richness of butter … and cream. Similar to, but different from, tikka masala or…

Thai Green Curry Chicken with Coconut Shrimp

November 29, 2013 by Dale 1 Comment

Sensuous and aromatic …. Aromatically sensuous. If you have ever questioned or just not understood the importance of aroma in food, this dish will be your moment of epiphany. If you ever wondered why some people react to smells and tastes as if someone was whispering wanton words in their ear, you’ll understand when you…

Homemade Super Dog Food … aka Ben’s Breakfast

September 15, 2013 by Dale 27 Comments

If I have a finger for every love in my life, one is given to food and another one, likely an opposable thumb, is given to Ben, my dog. Together, those two loves have produced this recipe for homemade dog food which I have been feeding to my super/wonder-dog for years. For those new to…

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…
