This is two pictures of the same thing – roughly 10 liters of stock reduced A LOT: The inspiration came from Val (who has a blog named Kale for the Revolution – check it out) who posted a comment back in December; Joel, have you ever tried doing reduced stocks? I tried it this year [...]

We drink a lot of carbonated water (assisted by our Soda Stream) and while we often drink it plain, we also like to make cordials (like this ginger-honey concentrate) to mix it up from time to time.  Today`s recipe uses less than a tablespoon of sugar per 500 ml (2 cups) of flavoured water and [...]

Since Kate left our house (and how we miss her!), I`ve spent a lot of time thinking about gluten.  Kate shared so much information about cooking Gluten-free and it fascinates me – after all, gluten is my favorite food group.  To imagine living without it is very difficult for me; which is why it has [...]
