Relish Recipes — Appetizers

"When we thought of this weekend recipe, we realized that January 24 is in fact National Peanut Butter Day during 2026, so we figured what better day to have a feature on peanut butter than today? This is a tasty dish that can be used as an appetizer or a main dish, originating from Indonesia but becoming vastly popular in Thailand, it's the perfect addition to a weeknight rotation!"

"Bright limeade meets crisp champagne for a cocktail that’s as refreshing as it is chic. Served in our elegant glassware, it turns every toast into a moment worth savouring. And with an easy mocktail version, everyone can join the cheers."

One of our first guest instructors, Chef Emily Richards made this delicious dip at a class we called 'Hosting A Holiday Open House' back in December 2015. We loved it and thought it's time to pull it out of the archives. Break up a loaf of rye or pumpernickel bread or veggies (if you must) to serve it.

"Dried Figs have a wonderful, sweet taste that makes ricotta cheese sing when combined. Use your favourite red wine to cook the figs in so you can enjoy a sip or two while they simmer away." - Emily Richards, Recipe is Reprinted with Permission.

Pickle lovers, this dip is for you! It’s creamy, tangy, and fresh. It tastes like an easy, grown-up alternative to fried pickles with ranch dressing. Serve it  with your favourite veggies, but it's killer when you add some crinkle cut or kettle-cooked potato chips!
