This sweet potato dish is a wonderful combination of sweet and smoky (from the chipotles). It is a perfect side dish to the traditional Thanksgiving turkey dinner, but is delicious any day of the week.
Sandra Valvassori is one of our favourite cooking instructors here at Relish. She's also the face and writer behind her beautiful blog Sandra Valvassori. We have been making her granola for years now and topping our daily morning yogurt. It's naturally sweetened and full of heart-healthy nuts and seeds. We keep it stored in our favourite Weck Jars. It's the perfect thing to keep on hand and get your morning off to a good start.
This is the perfect salad to make with things from the garden and/or farm market. Grilling the corn enhances the sweetness and the fresh oregano complements the sweetness and lends and earthy flavour to this delightful summer salad.
Eggnog is pretty much synonymous with Christmas. What other time of year do you get to drink something that’s basically custard spiked with alcohol? A good eggnog is made up of just a few simple ingredients – alcohol, sugar, cream and raw eggs. Now if you are skeptical of drinking something with raw eggs, take note that the Centre of Disease Control (CDC) tested copious amounts of homemade eggnog to find that the addition of alcohol basically wiped out the risk of any contamination. And if all this isn’t enough to entice you, December 24th is National Eggnog Day. So go ahead and indulge a little – it’s the holidays.
Black garlic has a highly concentrated taste - licorice meets balsamic meets the absolute essence of garlic. It's a quick way tin inject a huge amount of flavour into a dish. Get everything chopped and ready for this dish before you start, but don't cook it until just before starting - you want the sprouts to be eaten fresh from the pan.
