The holidays are here. It’s official. As I write this, gazing through my office window at the Maritime snow storm blanketing my city, I am very aware that winter is here. Ol’ Saint Nick is just around the corner. For the home cook, chef, and avid eater, the holidays are an especially wonderful time. The…

Spicy Garlic Chili Cauliflower Stir Fry
Vegetarian food. Yes, you are delicious. Over the past while I’ve had a lot of lovely folks asking for more vegetarian or vegan dishes, and I hear y’all loud and clear. Flashback time. I grew up in a family of vegetarians…well, one vegetarian, my Mom. Which in the 90’s was kind of a new and…

Lobster & Christmas, I love you both. For some strange (and delicious) reason, lobster and Christmas just seem to be best friends for a lot of folks.

Baked Eggs in Ricotta Parmesan Creamed Spinach
Eggs, I kinda have a crush on you. It’s no secret. I’m a fan. Big time. So…here’s the scoop on DtheP and eggs. A few years ago, we were going through a kind of ‘food revolution’ in our house (thanks, Jamie Oliver). Basically, we really starting to learn about the food industry and what all…

Whole Smoked Chicken
Whole Smoked Chicken. Ok y’all. Seriously. This might be the best chicken I’ve ever made. Or even eaten (excluding that little bit of chicken heaven I ate along the Seine in Paris a few years ago. Roasted Chicken from the Bastille Market with a bottle of wine – perfection). This, this came close. Sunday dinners, you’ve…

Provolone Pancetta Burgers with Parmesan Herb Crisps
Parmesan, thank you for being so crazy delicious. I recently had the good fortune to hear about Sobey’s Parm Night, an evening to celebrate all things parmigiano reggiano and their 30-month aged parm, straight from the land of deliciousness (viva Italia). On a burger. A Salad. A nice baguette. Or just shamelessly eating straight from…

Cream of Broccoli Mushroom & Old Cheddar Soup
Fall is here. Soup is on. I don’t know about y’all, but when Fall decides to show is red leafy, chilly, delicious face, all I crave is soup. And a big fat piece of crusty bread, dunking away for days. It’s soul satisfying in the very best of ways. You guys having a great week?…
