Uni Cream Fettuccine | The ultimate lovechild of our homemade fettuccine pasta and fresh uni and uni cream pasta sauce from @freshideasstarthere. The springy "al dente" texture of hand cranked pasta with the decadent, umami hit of the miso-based uni cream sauce and briny red uni roe was amazing! We garnished with some masago, pecorino romano and home-grown baby basil leaves. 100% would make again!

Seafood Showcase 🦐🦞🐟🐟 | We eat a lot of seafood, so we're always looking for new ways to prepare it! Fresh Ideas Start Here (@freshideasstarthere) has some of the best seafood products in the YVR area, so we thought we'd showcase a couple of them, along with an original creation. Shout out also to @mamangoxosauce for that extra hit of flavor and spice🌶️🦐. Definitely check out both these local businesses to up your cooking and eating game!

🦞🥟🧈🍋Lobster Ravioli in Lemon Brown Butter: a weeknight version of a luxurious classic. Canned lobster isn't the best on its own, but it's absolutely delicious mixed with ricotta, shallots, orange bell pepper and plenty of lemon zest and juice. We tossed these delicate parcels in a brown butter and garnished with home grown basil and walnuts. PSA: Wonton skins are a great shortcut for ravioli as long as you get the cook right!

🦀🥟🌶️🦐Dungeness Crab Dumplings: When I saw these at the store (@freshideasstarthere), I knew I had to try them. They're filled with a spicy, umami dungeness crab filling, so we thought we'd complement it with XO Sauce and Chili Oil (@mamangoxosauce). We boiled them lightly and garnished with home grown cilantro.

🐟Fish Kofta: Great value at $6 per pack of eight (@freshideasstarthere ) and easy to prepare in the air fryer with a light basting of vegetable oil. We served these crispy, juicy morsels with a lemon, dill and shallot yogurt sauce (shout out to Afra on Main St, our local Mediterranean grocer), as well as some fresh vegetables. The mixture of salmon, halibut and ling cod make for great texture and flavor.

We also got some uni pasta sauce and a tray of red uni... stay tuned for that post!

💨🐟Smoked Salmon Terrine | Proof that elegant and delicious food doesn't have to mean fancy ingredients and a hefty grocery bill! First, we roasted some salmon trim we had in the freezer and seasoned it with salt, pepper and hickory liquid smoke. Then, we whipped it up with butter, cream cheese, fresh dill, caramelized shallots, chopped capers and cornichons, along with the zest and juice of a lemon. After lining our mold with cold-smoked salmon (just a supermarket product, nothing fancy!) and thinly sliced cucumber, we refrigerated the mixture in the mold overnight. Serve with toast, crackers or crudités. A beautiful, yet affordable showstopper for your next picnic!

Rabbit Adobo 🐇🇵🇭| One of the most experimental things we've ever made, and it paid off! The robust scent of the rabbit really stood up to the bold flavors of adobo. We used a sweet soy sauce in this recipe to round the dish out and offer a lovely, caramelized finish. On the side, we had a shrimp and asparagus stir fry and garlic cauliflower fried rice. Our twist on a home cooked Filipino supper 🍽️

🐇Bone-in Rabbit
Sweet Soy
Rice Vinegar
Mirin

Bay Leaves
Peppercorn

🍚Garlic Fried Cauliflower Rice (Sinangag):

🇮🇳Tasty Indian Bistro in Delta | Last weekend, we had an amazing patio lunch at Tasty Indian Bistro in Delta. 🍽️We were so, so impressed with the service and atmosphere, but even moreso with the food: bold and vibrant flavors and colors, prepared masterfully and plated with care. Swipe ➡️ and read below to see what we ordered...

🐑Seekh Kabab: beautiful seasoned ground lamb and pork sizzling on an iron plate and served with an herbed sauce. Great value and flavor!

🌮The Tasty Tacos (Paneer): panko-crusted cubes of paneer garnished with a fresh slaw and chimichurri mayo.

🍛Tasty Veg Special: Aloo Gobi, Chana Masala, Shahi 🍛Paneer, served with rice and naan. Such a lovely variety of our favorite vegetarian favorites. The texture of the cauliflower in the Allo Gobi was particularly pleasant.

🍗🥛Tasty Creamy Chicken: Tasty's rendition of "Murgh Methi Malai", a lesser known chicken curry made with dried fenugreek leaves. It is unbelievably fragant and luscious, yet very well balanced.

Thank you @tastyindian for the fulsome dining experience! We'll be back soon...

Loco Moco🌺 | Our twist on this Hawaiian comfort food classic. Purists beware, we made some changes to suit our tastes 😜 The result was a light, vibrant and fragrant version of the dish. My sunny side egg🍳🥚 could have turned out better... I even used a ring mold!
See below for ingredients:

Ground Turkey Burger 🍔: flavored with grated onion, worchesterchire sauce and lots of black pepper.

Turkey Gravy 🦃: Low-sodium gravy mix cooked with caramelized onions, crimini mushrooms, mirin and chunks of real roasted dark meat turkey.

Cauliflower Garlic Fried Rice🍚🧄: Inspired by Filipino 🇵🇭 "sinangag" (Garlic Fried Rice), but I used a blend of white rice and riced cauliflower.

Stir Fried Sweet Peppers and Green Beans 🌶️: Sautéed lightly with Dale's Chili Bomb Garlic Sauce. @dales.foodproducts

Cast Iron Showcase🍳 | Cast iron cookware has definitely expanded our cooking repertoire. We love the heat distribution and retention, which allow us to achieve the desired cook/moisture. We thought we'd show you a few things we love making with our cast iron skillets and cast iron grill pan. Swipe➡️and read below:

🧀🥦Cheesy Broccoli Skillet: our patented way to make vegetables unhealthy. Olive oil, broccoli (cut into spears, not florets!), truffle salt, garlic and herb seasoning, black pepper and big chunks of extra aged cheddar cooked on the stovetop and broiled in the oven to finish. A must-try, easy weekday side.

🐑Stuffed Leg of Lamb Roast: mint, rosemary rub. Goat cheese, black pepper and lemon filling. Tied up, seared in the cast iron pan and finished in the oven.

🐟Pan-seared Sablefish: Screaming hot pan, skin (scored with a knife to prevent curling) side down for a few minutes. Flip over to quickly "kiss the pan" on the other side to finish. Served with miso butter vegetables.

🦐🥒Grilled Cajun Tiger Prawns and Vegetables: Toss prawns and veg in olive oil, lemon, cajun seasoning, salt and a pinch of sugar. High heat is key to getting those gorgeous grill marks and preventing stickage!

Fusion "Taiwanese" Noodle Soup 🍜 | A quick, yet hearty lunch flavored with pan-Asian aromatics, spices and condiments simulating a slow-cooked Taiwanese beef broth. It's always fun to tour around Asia for a concoction that hits all of those umami, sweet and salty notes. Can't forget the handmade noodles ("biang biang style!"), which have the ideal springy texture. We used a lean pork tenderloin instead of beef and added carrots, asparagus, green beans and broccoli. 🇹🇼🇨🇳🇻🇳🇰🇷🇯🇵

Sushi Night: Takeout Edition! @sashimiyashop @takenaka_yvr | Chef's Choice Sashimi | Bluefin Chutoro | Omakase Aburi Sushi | Homemade Goma-Ae

Doing our part to support our favorite sashimi/sushi vendors in Vancouver. Definitely worth the little extra cash for this level of quality and care! Thought we needed some more veggies, so I blanched a big box of spinach for a homemade goma-ae (don't you hate how much spinach cooks down??) 🥬🥬

Chef's Choice Sashimi (Medium) + Bluefin Chutoro:
Albacore Tuna
King Salmon
"Akami" Red tuna
Imported Hamachi
Saba
Ika 🦑
Tako🐙
Bluefin Chutoro 🐟 (bought us a little slab and sliced it at home. UNREAL🤩)

Omakase Aburi Sushi:
Beautifully seasoned sushi rice under a layer of sauce and torched fish topped with ikura, tobiko, wakame and a sweet soy drizzle.

Homemade Goma-ae:
Our quick version uses sesame paste (or organic peanut butter in a pinch), roasted sesame oil, toasted sesame seeds, vinegar, monkfruit sweetener, soy sauce and dashi stock.
