This chocolate babka is, admittedly, a labor of love. However, it is well worth all of the effort and waiting time. The original recipe calls for an optional addition of crumbled brownie or chocolate wafer cookies– a nice addition, but I prefer to err on the side of simplicity, so I simply stick with chopped pecans and or almonds (feel free to use whatever floats your boat). A chocolate with at least 70% cacao mass is recommended for the filling, but you can most definitely get away with something as low as a chocolate with 52%– especially if you prefer a filling that is not too rich. 

The babka calls for a very Middle-Eastern-inspired soak of simple syrup; if you can’t stand by the idea of a denser, moister babka, feel free to only use enough to coat the top of the babka a couple times. The moistness from the syrup makes the babka delectable, even when cold. But if you’re against using so much simple syrup, warming the babka for a few seconds in the microwave is highly recommended (I know it sounds wrong, but trust me – you need to try it).

(about 4.25 g) Granulated sugar

280 g (about 2 ¼ cups) All purpose flour

I like to call this “15 minutes to soup heaven!”

Asian dishes can be quite intimidating as the ingredient list can vary from 20 to 100 ingredients and most of them are not common household items…I mean lemongrass or chili oil? With this soup, the only somewhat unfamiliar ingredient you need to find in the Asian isle is the Red Curry Paste, which is also the star of this dish!

As I cook with the seasons, I recently have been using asparagus and mushrooms but feel free to throw in whatever veggies you like! Traditionally bok choy is a commonly used vegetable but bell peppers, green beans, broccoli or even corn will work out great!

This soup is slightly spicy, creamy, and just straight up delicious!

Impress your guests with this tasty alternative to the traditional pineapple glazed ham (or roast gammon, as some like to call it). When purchasing a bone-in cured ham, look for one that is firm and has rosy pink meat. Use leftover ham bone to flavour soups or stews.

This blend is wonderful in everything from Greek salad to roasted potatoes and vegetables.

The beauty of Greek seasoning is that it is quite smooth and subtle. This makes it perfect for adding to lots of different things:

- Cooked vegetables

It is very handy to have a jar on hand whether you want to create a dish with a distinct Mediterranean flavour, or just want to add another layer of flavour.
