    The preserved/pickled green tomatoes at Cowbell may rival their artichokes!

    It’s good to see that we are doing some back to basics cooking again in Toronto. Too many people have been trying to do fancy cooking without understanding the basics. That has hurt the restaurant scene in Toronto a lot.

    I find in Europe they have a stronger appreciation for mastering basic food preserving methods like pickling and curing. I am cooking in Denmark right now and they are doing some really interesting things there with preserving food.

    If interested, you can see what restaurant life is like in Denmark on my blog haanpc.blogspot.com.

    I love pickled foods , these are all really good , i have tried a few of them , restaurants that make there own fresh items is really good to see, the FOXLEY ON OSSINGTON does a great job, and BLD RESTAURANT on adelaide street makes everything fresh , thats what dining out is supposed to be about a dining experience where we taste what ll the great chefs of toronto make for us.

    during the holidays i enjoyed some exceptional pickled products from a new toronto-based company called bumpercrop. with cheese and charcuterie we tasted red wine pears, pickled celery, and the most fabulous beer onions and peppers. where can we buy bumpercrop products? these were not listed…but should have been!
