A few months ago I was at this great shop in my hood called Culinarium trying to use up a recent Groupon purchase. Culinarium takes the idea of being a “locavore” to another level and only stocks products made/grown in Ontario. For awhile I would buy my bacon there all […]
Last month’s Charcutepalooza Challenge was all about making sausages (sans casings). I decided to make chorizo because I love to get my Mexican cooking on. Of course when I think of Mexican food I think of Rick Bayless so I turned to him for some inspiration.
I kind of […]
For this month’s Charcutepalooza challenge we inch our way closer to making sausage by exploring the world of grinding. And yes, I feel slightly dirty typing the word “grinding” repeatedly (I’m secretly a 13 year-old boy).
Now grinding isn’t new to me. I broke out my grinder a few […]
While I love meat, I try not to eat it all the time. My weekly diet usually involves some meat, some seafood, maybe some poultry and usually a meatless dish, like pasta. My lunches recently usually consist of leftover dinner so I’ve been having much more meat at lunch than I’d […]
Since I always keep a stash of fish fillets in my freezer, I’m always on the lookout for new ways to use them up. When it comes to whitefish I don’t have a go-to recipe since I usually make fish a different way each time. What can I say? I like […]
For years I’ve been a part of this online cookbook buying “club” called The Good Cook. It’s similar to the old Columbia House CD buying program where you get a certain number of books for cheap (in this case 4 for $1 each) and then have to buy a few more […]
One of the cookbooks in my collection that continues to delight me is . Sure, the recipes tend to be kind of labour intensive (do I REALLY need to peel my bell peppers?) but they really work. I really need to invest in Hazan’s classic cookbook, […]
I’m always on the hunt for great Indian recipes. I love Indian food and have dreams of recreating dishes that I enjoy at my usual Indian spots. Sometimes I get things right but oftentimes the results fall short. I’m guessing because I’m too lazy to grind my own spices and such […]
A few months ago I bought the Food Grinder attachment for my KitchenAid Stand Mixer. Ever since I bought it, the grinder has been sitting in its box tucked away into the corner. I bought it because I have visions of making my own sausages. Since we haven’t reached that […]
This month’s Charcutepalooza challenge was all about hot smoking. The apprentice challenge was to hot smoke salmon while the charcuterie challenge was to hot smoke either a pork loin or a pork shoulder.
When I first read smoked salmon I was super excited because I LOVE smoked salmon. After doing […]
