SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB: Indigenous Food Lab by Chef Taylor Parker
DESCRIPTION:Toronto is part of the Dish With One Spoon Covenant. In its very language\, it reminds us that by eating together\, we are connected.  \nThe Depanneur is proud to host the Indigenous Food Lab\, a new monthly residency with Chef Taylor Parker\, the man behind The Dep’s acclaimed and subversive Canada Day Supper Clubs.  It is designed as space to consider the possibilities of an elevated\, communal dining experience rooted in First Nations traditions. It is a laboratory to explore and experiment with a Canadian concept of terroir – the flavour of a place — to rediscover and redefine what Indigenous food means today. \nChef Taylor’s sophisticated tasting menus celebrate local and foraged ingredients\, and a deep connection to First Nations foodways\, to our land and our shared heritage. Each meal showcases a range of wild ingredients native to Ontario. Weather\, timing\, season\, and the caprice of Mother Nature will determine exactly what will be shared with us. Whatever comes to the table\, you can be assured that it will be crafted with remarkable skill and creativity of a veteran fine-dining chef. \n\nRead the profile of Chef Taylor from The Depanneur Cookbook\n  \nWe live in the largest city in Canada\, one of the most ethnically and culinarily diverse cities in the world. One can find almost any dish from almost any cuisine\, with one glaring\, egregious exception: the country we actually live in. Indigenous food is criminally underrepresented in Toronto’s food scene\, without a single Indigenous-owned restaurant for people to patronize. More than ever before\, Canada needs to embrace and celebrate its indigenous culinary heritage\, and I believe the long path towards reconciliation can and should start at the table. \nWhy no menu?\n—–\nTaylor Parker is of the Mohawk Nation\, Bear Clan\, from Six Nations of the Grand River. \nTaylor is a proud father\, chef\, forager\, gardener\, and friend. His extensive knowledge of native North American plants brings rarely seen ingredients and flavours to his dishes\, with the philosophy that food is a conduit to connect people back to the land. Taylor is passionate about bringing like-minded Chefs together to share\, educate\, and collaborate on unique dishes that seek to define modern First Nations North American Cuisine. Taylor is proud to work alongside fellow cooks and friends Phil Magtulis and Matthew Kleinsteuber at The Depanneur dinner series. \nTaylor has spent much of his professional life working in a diverse range of kitchens and catering. He currently runs MT Hospitality focused on unique hunt\, fished and foraged First Nations inspired events and dinners\, and is also the co-owner of For4ged Candle Company in Brantford\, Ontario. @turok_parker \n—–\nEvery weekend The Depanneur invites an amateur or professional guest chef to host a fun\, informal dinner party. @thedepanneur

SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB: Feast of the Parsis by Niloufer Mavalvala
DESCRIPTION:Parsis are a Zoroastrian community descended from Persians who migrated from Persia around 7th century\, with most settling on the west coast of India. Over the past 1300 years\, while it has adopted many Indian culinary ingredients and techniques\, Parsi food has remained a unique regional cuisine that still echos flavours and techniques from ancient Persia. \nNiloufer Mavalvala is the award-winning author of several books on Parsi cooking and our guide this evening she shares a traditional family style meal of traditional Parsi dishes\, along with stories about the food and Parsi culture. This is a unique opportunity to dive into a rare and fascinating culinary tradition and learn about Parsi culture\, traditions\, customs\, and heritage.\n—– \nMalido & Sherry\nWith roots in the Persian plateau\, malido is a kind of sweet snack made by combining finely crumbled bread or whole wheat flour with ghee\, jaggery (raw sugar)\, dried fruits\, and nuts. It is very commonly featured at the holiday table; tonight\, paired with a nip of sherry\, it makes a lovely ‘amuse bouche’ to begin the evening and awaken the senses for the coming meal. \nSali Murghi\nSucculent chicken stewed in a richly spiced gravy sweetened with apricots. Served with sali (crispy potato straws) and crusty bread for soaking up the fabulous sauce! \nDhansak\nPerhaps the most famous Parsi dish — and for good reason! Families take great pride in their version\, and Niloufer’s is no exception. She declares her mother’s ‘the best\, hands down’\, so tonight she recreates these flavours and memories for us. A simmering cauldron of lentils\, lamb and spices is served over rice and a bed of caramelized onions\, accompanied by kachumber\, a refreshing\, finely chopped salad to offset the richness of the meal. Served in the traditional way\, on a banana leaf. \nLagun Nu  (Parsi Wedding Custard)\nA dessert with colonial roots but which has been assimilated and made traditional\, this sweet custard is a staple of Parsi wedding feasts. Created by tweaking an English-style custard towards Persian tastes\, fruits\, nuts and spices are added to deepen the flavour and turn a humble sweet into something layered and complex.\n—– \nNiloufer Mavalvala is an experienced home cook and a multiple “Best In The World” cookbook award-winning author\, who believes her passion has a purpose. Her passion is teaching cooking\, and her purpose is to spread ancient Parsi cuisine far and wide. She enjoys cooking for others\, having been influenced by her family of good home cooks\, particularly her mother and aunt. She was born and raised in Karachi and has lived in several cities\, including Dubai\, London\, and Toronto. Niloufer enjoys welcoming people from other cultures and cuisines because she feels that food connects us all and that breaking bread together is the easiest way to bond. Follow her on Instagram\, Facebook\, and her website\, Niloufer’s Kitchen. nilouferskitchen.com | @nilouferskitchen \n \n—– \nEvery weekend The Depanneur invites a guest chef to host a fun\, family-style dinner party.\n@thedepanneur
