Web Chef Review: Rancourt Winery 2012 Malbec
This bottle of Rancourt Winery 2012 Malbec is an amazing, exciting wine. Malbec is quite a rare grape here in the Niagara Region or in all of Canada for that matter. There are only three producers of a single varietal Malbec wine in Niagara area – using only one type of grape in their wine and in this case, it is Malbec. Malbec is similar to a beaujolais or pinot noir, except it is lighter in color and fruitier. A beautiful...

For the Love of Celery
We don’t often think of Celery as a versatile food, but the tender leaves are lovely used in nearly all savory foods – either fresh or dried. Celery salt is actually powdered, tender celery leaves combined with salt. Celery seeds used for flavor are the seeds of wild celery, which is grown specially for the seeds, which are intense in flavor, and should be sparingly used in bouillon, stocks, pickles, seafood dishes &...

How to Cook Brown Rice with Lentils: Cupboard Cooking
Today is Day 3 of our One Month Grocery Shopping Strike. This is what I made as a side dish for tonight’s dinner using my “cupboard cooking” strategies. This went with my Coconut Crusted Baked Salmon and peas with toasted coconut. The reason I combined the lentils with the brown rice is to make a complete protein. It’s very difficult to get my mother to eat meat of any kind. She just doesn’t feel like it much. So,...
