I relate maple to food more than I do drink? No grolsch was drank during the making of this post.

Continuing kc's Canadian theme:



Seared bison striploin with a juniper berry rub. The fat used was ghee.



Flamed off in rye heavy Canadian whiskey. The corn in it gives a hint of sweetness, similar to flaming beef in brandy, while the woodiness of the rye plays up the flavour of an animal that eats woody greens.



Pan fried everything. Salt and vinegar potatoes and sauteed beans. The skin on baby potatoes are parboiled in vinegar water, then pan fried and salted. A decent Chilean Cab Sauv followed by a Canadian pipe wine (port) with some locally made truffles.

Ghee is great for pan frying red meat. Rich flavour and a good smoke point.

Exactly. And the added bonus for something as lean as a bison striploin is the introduction of some delicious fat.

I've only used it to make a specific kind of saffron rice.

I didn't even know that white folks knew what it is.

Swedish meatballs yesterday. Or as we call them: meatballs.

Missed to snap a pic of the full meal. Served with mash, gravy and we substituted the traditional lingonberries for a red currant gelé.

Given the number of balti and curry houses where I come from, it is extremely popular.
