Panko-Crusted Salmon

On January 11, 2011 · 8 Comments

I love it when I find a quick and easy weeknight staple meal.  Seriously.  I mean who doesn’t like the idea of knowing that if all else fails there is a delicious meal that can be made quickly when you get home from work?  AND it’s good enough to serve to company.  [...]

Every once in a while I like to look at what my most popular posts are. I’m often surprised.  To wrap up 2010 I figured I’d share with you the top 10 most popular recipes posts of the past year.  These aren’t recipes that were posted this year but the most popular posts of the [...]

Coquilles St. Jacques a la Parisienne

On December 6, 2010 · 1 Comment

I recently completed a pretty terrible course at George Brown called Creative Plate Presentations. I thought it would be really cool and help me plate my food better but the instructor that I had was a bit retro for my tastes.  The one good thing about the class is that [...]

Shrimp Scampi with Quick Preserved Lemon and Fennel on Polenta

On October 21, 2010 · 3 Comments

I’m currently taking a not so great cooking class.  The only upside to the class is that when we have our hands-on days our teacher doesn’t make us prepare both recipes in class, we can take our ingredients home and prepare the dish in the comfort of our own homes.  Instead [...]

Thai Grilled/Fried Fish with Coriander-Chili Sauce

On October 10, 2010 · 2 Comments

A few weeks ago while at Costco I bought a package of tilapia.  Now tilapia is not my favourite fish at all but I was making fish tacos (and new I’d be making them often) so I bought a pack.  Of course I now feel responsible for finding other ways [...]

Fish and Chips from Scratch

On September 28, 2010 · 3 Comments


Every once in a while I get consumed with the idea of making a particular dish. It could stem from a particular craving, the desire to not go out to eat or simply undertaking a challenge.  I can’t quite remember what triggered my craving for fish and chips, although I [...]

Mussels Marniere

On September 16, 2010 · 8 Comments

I’ve never really given mussels too much though, especially not making them.  Sure if I go out to a restaurant and there happen to be mussels in my dish I will eat them but I rarely (if ever order mussels).  There’s no real reason whatsoever for that.  I think I just [...]

Pretty Delicious Fish Tacos

On June 14, 2010 · 12 Comments

I love fish tacos.  Problem is, there aren’t that many places to get them in Toronto.  Back when I lived in New York I used to have fish tacos for brunch at Dos Caminos Soho and they were great. Until one day they changed the batter to more of a breading [...]

Moosewood’s Gingered Salmon

On May 16, 2010 · 6 Comments

Despite having an extensive cookbook collection when I’m looking for something new to look I often turn to the interwebs instead of to my good old books. Every once in a while I stray from my usual patterns and peruse through a book I haven’t touched in a while. Recently the [...]

Julia Child’s Gratin of Creamed Salmon

On March 3, 2010 · Leave a Comment

A few months ago I was so pumped to finally buy Julia Child’s Mastering the Art of French Cooking Vol. 1. Something happened shortly after and I didn’t really make any other recipes.  I mean, I always MEANT to open up the book when doing my menu planning but [...]
