Chocolate Pecan Pie (with Salted Caramel!)

For my first Thanksgiving in Canada, I wanted to ‘wow’ the family with a homemade pie.

One of my husband’s favourites is Pecan. I decided to test out this recipe by Food 52, and for a ‘test pie’ it came out pretty damn alright.

So I decided to explore the pie in various compositions and moods. When I am able to really explore a subject, I like to create different themes, moods and stories. This is something I teach in my advanced in-person workshops. Contact me for inquiries about upcoming workshops.

Christmas S'mores

North America for me has always been synonymous with making s’mores. I mean, we toast marshmallows in Australia, but NA takes it to a whole other level.

From my time as a camp counsellor making s’mores, I was so excited to make them this summer camping for the first time since moving to Vancouver.

Taking it back to the kitchen in the winter, here is my take on s’mores brownies - Christmas style.
