Fielding Estates – Riesling (2012)

November 18, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

Fielding Riesling (front)

Fielding Estates is one of the first Niagara wineries to which I was introduced and one which I immediately gravitated towards. I first visited it soon after it opened, almost a decade ago, and their wines have been trusted friends ever since. I was first served tastings by Heidi in their start up Quonset ……

Karlo Estates – Lake on the Mountain Riesling (2010)

June 20, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

As popular as Karlo’s rosé (previously reviewed here), I would wager their biggest seller is probably this Riesling, and for good reason. As you will hear when you taste this wine at the winery, this wine is emblematic of Richard Karlo and his reputation for bringing balance and creativity into his wine. With a bit more upfront…

Fennel and Green Apple Slaw

June 18, 2014 by Dale Leave a Comment

If you’re one of those people who hates the common coleslaw that adorns most summer tables because you hate cabbage, here’s a game changer: fennel. Now I know some of you may be shaking your heads and walking away at the word fennel too: “I hate black licorice,” you say. Trust me, the flavour of…

Osso Buco

April 20, 2014 by Dale 3 Comments

There are few dishes in the world that I love as much as osso buco which, purely translated, is “hole in the bone.” I love it for the marriage of all its flavours into a comforting, richness. I love the philosophy of this dish. It is “slow food” done to perfection. While this classic Italian…

Scalloped Fennel-Potatoes au Gratin

March 4, 2014 by Dale 2 Comments

Cooking with a twist … that’s how a lot of my ideas form: take an idea, an ingredient, a ‘classic’ creation and then ask the question “What if …?” As you’ve seen from my previous post, I had prime rib on the brain and one of the comfort foods I love to serve alongside this…

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…

Penne with Fava Bean and Fennel Purée (Pasta)

July 7, 2013 by Dale Leave a Comment

When this week’s CSA bin arrived, the thing I was most looking forward to was the fresh fava beans. This is an example of an idea that got into my head and has stuck 10 or 15 years. Over the years, I had read a number of recipes in my plethora of Italian cookbooks that…
