A little twist on an old favorite, Rhubarb Ginger Crisp takes my Grandmother’s recipe and adds a layer of Asian flavour; the tartness of rhubarb and the heat of ginger against a brown sugar crumble.
We are lousy with rhubarb, big ripe juicy stalks of it in one long row in sun. Over the weekend we enjoyed the backyard and a few steaks, and I simply could not resist making something fresh from the garden, thus the Rhubarb Ginger Fizz was born.
A quick green side for spring – Asparagus, Snap Pea, New Potato & Fiddlehead Sauteé. Serve warm or cold, a simple medley of spring produce.
The Devil’s Food Salted Caramel Cupcakes we whipped up a week ago for a certain three year old’s birthday. So good we had offers of indentured servitude in exchange for more, here’s the recipe!
Inspired by the delicious crisps of Raincoast fame, a few tasty items from the pantry and I created my very own variety, I give you… Fig Walnut Thyme Crisps. Why not create your own?!
Easter at Chez Gypsy, by Chef B: green salad topped with seared duck breast, truffled potatoes & mushrooms, sometimes it’s the simplest of meals that make the most memorable moments.
A simple pasta soft, unripened cheese, lots of healthy grilled vegetables, a hint of garlic scape and a blast of balsamic reduction. Serve hot or cold, as a starter or a main for lunch or dinner. Grilled Vegetable Pasta with Bocconcini & Balsamic Reduction, as easy as one, two, three… four.
Cookies for breakfast? Relax Mom, they’re vegan, wheat-free, low sugar, low fat, Granola Breakfast Cookies. But nobody needs to know they’re healthy!
Braised Pork Belly, Roasted Beets & Parsnip Mash a late winter’s meal, low and slow and comforting, because slow food is good food. As the last of the winter storms blew though; I dug to the back for the freezer for a succulent price of pork belly to be the star of a cold weather menu. Could be the last of the season, it sure looks like spring, Baby!
In celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, a little taste of Ireland, straight from the rugged western shores and the storied medieval Ashford Castle, Chef Stefan Matz’ Char Grilled Scallops with Bacon and Sweet Potato Lemon Thyme Champ. Comfort and complexity.
An overwhelming desire for the taste of orange and chocolate lead me down the slippery slope of recipe development creating a deep, dark and delicious Chocolate Orange Chiffon Cake that thrilled neighbors and crushed that craving. (The neighbors love it when I bake!)
When I see ingredients I haven’t worked with I often drag them home to see what new delights I can concoct. Welcome home Kumquats, which quickly became Candied Kumquats… a taste of sunshine.
