Apple Peel Bourbon
The idea for this drink comes from Tara Duggan, who wrote about apple peel-infused bourbon, spiced with a bit of cinnamon and clove, in her cookbook, Root to Stalk. (Get the recipe here: https://food52.com/recipes/31446-apple-peel-bourbon.) It's perfect for strangely hot fall days when Mercury is in retrograde and you want to simultaneously pick apples and sit on a beach somewhere with a cool, fizzy drink. I'm in love with the idea of a cold fall-spiced drink -- it's as good a reason as any to peel a bunch of apples and stock up on ginger beer.

Bourbon Street Sour
My friend gave me this recipe but I tweaked her version by adding Italian Maraschino Cherries (Luxardo is a good brand and it makes a world of difference), some of the Maraschino Cherry juice, and switching the whiskey out for bourbon (because it was what I had at the time)... and let me just tell you, it came out to be the most amazing Sour I have had!!! It has nothing to do with New Orleans but I just thought the name was creative. Great for holiday parties!

Pig Pulled Over
This recipe serves 16, so living on my own it means two weeks of pulled pork sandwich for lunch. But when each subsequent sandwich surpasses the previous, that can hardly pose a problem.The choice of fruit juice is arbitrary, but I like mango because it reduces into the richest glaze. This method of making coleslaw is inspired by the Taiwanese pickling technique of first making a vinegar simple syrup, then pouring the hot syrup over the vegetables and letting it sit for three days. The result is something incredibly flavourful with a gutsy balance of acidity to cut through the pork’s fattiness.

Salmon Gravlax
Dukkah Dusted Lavash Crackers
I came up with the idea for these when I was making pita chips for a large party a few years back. Splitting the pitas and then brushing with olive oil just seemed to take forever. I was asked to make the same appetizer a week later, so when I was in the store looking at the pita and thinking how "pita" described perfectly what it's like making pita chips for 30, I noticed the lavash right next to them. Inspiration struck, I came up with this much easier alternative, and I haven't made a pita chip since. I like using my own dukkah blend, or za'atar made with fresh thyme, or a bit of both. These bake up best on a preheated baking stone in a screaming hot oven, so I typically make these right before or right after making pizza or artisanal bread. If I'm not interrupted and can get a good rhythm going, I can cut and prepare one lavash while another is baking in the oven (2-3 minutes), so a big batch using 6 lavash takes less than a half an hour to prep and bake. I hope you like these. ;o)
