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 ……

Canary Melon Soup with Mint Coulis

September 28, 2014 by Dale 9 Comments

Add Cilantro to Melon Stock

A soup that will surely delight as much as it surprises. The mystery of this soup continues long after the mystery of my last CSA mystery post. And this is certainly the kind of adventure I envisioned with the series. So when presented with a vibrant yellow melon, the size of a child’s football, during my…

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…

Sweet Ginger-Garlic Chicken Wings

October 24, 2013 by Dale 6 Comments

Ah, the chicken wing. At one time a throw-away piece of chicken, now an exercise in Friday-night indulgence. While I in no way, shape or form claim professional training or knowledge as a cook, I did spend a few years early in my university life as a line-cook in a busy downtown Calgary restaurant: Ed’s…

Thai Salad with Napa Cabbage

August 28, 2013 by Dale 1 Comment

Sweet ♦ Salty ♦ Sour ♦ Spicy ♦ Aromatic Some would define the classic Thai flavours as simply Sweet, Salty, Sour, which they are, but I like to think that it is a quintet that makes for most Thai food, not just a trio. And like any great band, it is harmony of playing together that creates memorable moments….

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.
