Roasting strawberries is the perfect way to boost their flavour and sweetness; tossing them in a splash of maple syrup boosts that flavour and sweetness even more! On their own, these roasted strawberries make the perfect snack or topping for vanilla ice cream. Here, they turn a regular muffin into the ultimate breakfast treat....
Blueberries do not need much to make them shine. Here it’s just a subtle bump from orange zest and cardamom to highlight their summertime best, wrapped up in layers of sugared puff pastry and nestled in creamy frangipane. Hazelnuts take the place of the almonds classically used in frangipane, granting an earthiness that underscores the musky sweetness of the berries. (The same weight of almonds can be used for any traditionalists.) The frangipane recipe makes double what is needed; the second ...

Always a storyteller, her letters were full of news about the people she worked for – a retired general, a Great Lakes sea captain and Dr. and Mrs. Lindsay, back in Canada from lifetime careers in the service of the United Church in China. In each of the households, she added to her reperto...
For many springs, we drove to Stratford to attend classes with Neil Baxter at Rundles Restaurant. Making good use of his expertise and the restaurant’s professional facilities, these weekend events were an excellent way to bridge the closing of the chefs’ school in March until the opening of the Shakespeare festival season in May. Along with usually ten other eager students, we would gather in time to prepare Friday night’s supper and leave, happily sated, after an exquisite Sunday lunch....
