The long-awaited cookbook from the test kitchen of Canada's largest
newspaper.
More than just a collection of recipes, the Toronto Star Cookbook
is a gorgeously photographed cookbook, that tells the story of the
vibrant, eclectic cuisine of Ontario. Here are more than 150 recipes
celebrating the province's chefs, restaurants, home cooks, farmers, food
store owners and more.
The Toronto Star Cookbook is a family-friendly cookbook filled
with recipes for classic comfort food like rice pudding two ways
(diner-style and upscale) apple crisp (made with three varieties of
apple) and grilled cheese (updated with smoked cheese and sriracha
ketchup), and classic Ontario dishes (True North Flatbread, My Mom's
Pan-Fried Pickerel and The Hogtown Sandwich). In reflection of
Toronoto's multicultuarl food scene, it includes dishes from more than
two dozen cultures, including Chinese noodles, Indian dosas, Korean rice
bowls, Mexican soup, Lebanese dips, Ethiopian beans and Vietnamese subs.
Jennifer Bain, the Star's food editor and award-winning Saucy Lady
columnist, personally selected and triple-tested all 150+ recipes. Most
of the recipes were published in the paper since Jennifer took over the
food beat in 2000, but some classics date back as far as 1975. Jennifer
asked the Star's readers to nominate their favourite Star recipes of all
time, and 25 of these Readers' Choice Recipes are included in the book.
