My second cookbook, Dutch Feast (from Arsenal Pulp Press, 2017) is a finalist for a 2018 Taste Canada Award in the category Regional / Cultural Cookbooks. The award is given to the best cookbook written by a Canadian author (or authors), which best exemplifies the cooking of a specific terroir or region in Canada, or, the cooking of a specific ethnic group (in terms of race, nationality, or religious heritage) in Canada or around the world.

Silence is violence, and though the content here is fluffy food and kid stuff mostly, it feels disingenuous for me to post another meal picture and it’s an omission to not post that #blacklivesmatter. Amplify BIPOC voices, show your white kids what’s happening and continue that conversation beyond today and this week so that it sinks in, and lend your support where you can including giving money to the organizations doing the work. There’s absolutely a group in your area that needs funding. I’m shutting up and listening. Challenge and educate your friends who don’t get it, it’s time.

I don’t need meat but I would eat every crab.

My aesthetic is 1970s mom with a subscription to Good Housekeeping and a minor daytime Chardonnay habit. I made these roses out of carrots, my family should be more impressed.

I mean, why not?

If you can fry your own favourites you can fix your own mood. Marinate eight chicken thighs in yellow American mustard and salt in a freezer bag in the fridge for a few hours. 45 minutes to an hour before cooking, let the chicken rest in its bag on the counter so it comes up to room temperature. Dredge in flour seasoned with salt and pepper, shake it off, then deep fry at 375F for 12 to 15 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp and the internal temperature reads at least 165F. Let rest on a wire rack positioned over a board lined with paper towel for five minutes. Salt again in the meantime. Eat with cold fruit, wavy potato chips, and hot sauce. Do not contemplate the day’s failures. That is what Thursday is for.

@nvanderwoud cooked and then refused to participate in a fun photo shoot to show off. Praise him for his efforts so he does it again but also call him rude please.
