Two recipes adapt in dramatic contrast to create a new personal best. A far east twist on a holiday favorite, Asian Gingerbread Pear Cake is slightly sweet, moist and intense with the bright addition of poached pears for a show-stopping, simple cake; the prefect fit for holiday entertaining.

A Nova Scotia seafood chowder, brimming with chunky bits of sea flesh, it's good old fashioned Maritime fare. When the snow flies there's nothing as satisfying is a big, creamy bowl of chowder. My first chowder came as a result of living…

This week on Food Gypsy promises to be very bad for your diet. Prepare yourselves. Starting with one of the simplest, fastest Blue Cheese Scallion Biscuits I've ever come across, I was thrilled with the results. It's OK, a couple of laps on the mattress will wear these babies off in a hurry.

To be more precise: candied yams, dates & walnuts with yogurt & brandied figs. A happy accident that became dessert and is now a winter favourite. Throughout my 20's and 30's I hosted an Orphan's Dinner on both Thanksgiving and Christmas; a gathering of disenfranchised souls…

Cranberries, nature's way of making sure we in northern climes get our vitamin C in the cold winter months; sharp and tangy and a must on the holiday table. Boozy Cranberry-Orange Sauce is extraordinarily easy (and fast) to make, a dash of Grand Marnier and hint of orange in a lovely jar, makes it a beautiful hostess gift.

Slow simmered over low heat to a tender, sweet finish, these short ribs are loosely based on a Korean stew called 'Galbi Jim'. A shot of coffee adds tannins to breakdown the fibers of the meat and make the sauce rich and dark. Cook them on the stove or pop them in the slow cooker and come home to dinner.

OH MY GOD, you're in town?! Come on over, I have Boeuf Bourguignon in the oven! Best impromptu dinner party line ever, and something I’ve never said in my life, before last night. There was a time when French food was intimidating, a time when a recipe with ten steps would have seen me turn the page. Now a moment or two with Julia Child and a glass of wine to steady the nerves, I’m a braisin' fool.

This time of year I love a warm scone, fresh from the oven. Perfect with a nice hot cup of tea on a late fall day. Lemon scones are among my favorites; adding cranberry and white chocolate. Light, fragrant, not too sweet; perfect for the girls on a Sunday afternoon or as a hostess gift during the holidays.

In this Food Gypsy Wino Wednesday we feature port, wine's big brother. A spicy warm aroma that packs a punch, Mulled Port could level you if you're not careful. What better way to celebrate the holidays than by being blissfully toasted by the fire. Caveat: Port is NOT WINE, this is 19.5% alcohol, and it will kick your ass.

If you’re going to commandeer Halloween candy, there should be some kind of plan for later usage that the whole family can enjoy. Like making cookies! Caramel Mars Bar Cookies are popular with kids of all ages especially when we super-size then and make COLOSSAL COOKIES; cookies that eat like a meal.
