Duck Magret with Sour-Cherry and Port Sauce …

April 27, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

Serve duck with sour cherry sauce

This creation was me saying happy birthday to Benjamin, my über wonder dog of 18 years. That is to say, I’m not the only one in the family that gets weak in the knees when someone says “duck.” Truly, it’s a wonder that over the years I haven’t been beaned with a softball between the eyes…

White Chili

February 26, 2014 by Dale 4 Comments

While we battle through a late season cold-snap, the calendar says that winter’s strength will soon be behind us. In the meanwhile, the cold weather continues demand slow-cooked comfort foods and I’m happy to comply. Nothing seems to warm as well as those one-pot dishes that cook for hours and warm you from the core…

Triple-Ginger Gingersnaps

January 5, 2014 by Dale 2 Comments

Triple Gingersnaps

Gingersnaps … for ginger fools™. One of my grandmother’s legacies to me is a love everything ginger. Ever since I was a child, I would eat anything ginger that she pressed into my hands: ginger marmalade, candies, crystalized ginger, chocolate covered ginger … and gingersnaps. I ate it all … I adored it all. And…

Pumpkin Pie Latte

December 30, 2013 by Dale 5 Comments

A few things about me…. I love my coffee and almost every day starts the same with a latte. I love all things pumpkin and as much as I generally dislike the coffee and commercialization that is all-things “Starbucks,” I do adore the emergence of their pumpkin spice latte every year. But, in some regards,…

Tagine with Merguez Sausage and Winter Vegetables

February 14, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

You may have noticed that for the past month at least I’ve been pretty much in a “winter” theme.  Something about going cross-country skiing and shovelling snow that screams comfort food — and there are fewer better examples of comfort food than any stew. One of my very favourite stews is tagine, a North African dish so…

Oatmeal Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies (redux)

February 3, 2013 by Dale 9 Comments

If you love moist, tender cookies, here’s a great gluten-free cookie recipe that everyone is sure to love. Trust me – no one will notice the absence of the wheat flour – they’ll just be going, “Mmm, wow, what are these delicious cookies?!” And, yes, that is “banana” in the title of the recipe. What…

Braised Red Cabbage with Apples

January 21, 2013 by Dale 4 Comments

Few cooking techniques are as decidedly “winter” as braising. The method telegraphs a slow, lazy day of cooking — and it proclaims comfort food … and nothing says Sunday dinner better than braised comfort food. If you’re even the slightest bit ‘iffy’ about cabbage, trust me, this will make a convert of you. Anne has dubbed this…
