SUMMARY:POP-UP: Deep Dive Dinner hosted by Elenna Mosoff & Danika Zoe
DESCRIPTION:24 strangers\, 1 family style dinner\, 1 local chef = 1 remarkable conversation.\nDeep Dive Dinners are an opportunity to disconnect from the echo chamber of the online world and have a lively\, multi faceted conversation with folks you may not ever meet. \nDeep Dive Dinners are an intimate evening that provide an antidote to the world’s lack of face-to-face connection. \nWithout trying to solve or come to conclusions\, Deep Dive Dinners offers a space where we come together to hear one another in our different world views over dinner. \nTopic: Boundaries — What are yours and where do you need better ones?\n$80 \nBOOK NOW\n—– \nFAQS \nWhat is the food?\nEvery Deep Dive Dinner will have a robust set of appetizers as everyone is arriving\, and will feature a family style meal created with local ingredients by our host chef. There will be a good variety of options\, and we will accommodate all dietary needs. \nCan I see the menu?\nWe will be sharing the menu with all guests one week prior to the event. \nWill there be alcohol?\nYes. This dinner will serve wine with dinner as available. \nCan I record the dinner conversation?\nNo. The space is a closed space. We will ask you to put your cell phone in a big bowl upon entering the space. This is a symbol of everyone’s presence and commitment to being in the Deep Dive. \n—– \nAbout Elenna Mosoff\nExperience Designer\, Life & Leadership Coach\, Camp Counsellor of the Universe \nI believe in the analogue revolution. I believe we are moving farther and farther from who we are meant to be as a result of an increased relationship with technology\, and a shrinking relationship with all things that are alive. I believe in local. I believe that the change the world is longing for happens right in our own backyards. I believe it’s important to know your neighbour and the local coffee barista. I believe in making impact by connecting on a deep and intimate level with ourselves and one another. I believe nature can show us about who we are. I believe that inside each of us\, there is a deep longing to connect\, to belong\, to love and be loved. I believe we are all searching for a return to this place within us. \nI am a Certified Co-Active Coach\, a Facilitator\, a Creator\, and hold an MFA in professional theatre direction. \nelennamosoff.com

SUMMARY:COOKING CLASS: Mastering the Instant Pot by Carole Nelson Brown
DESCRIPTION:Pressure cooking\, by its very nature\, is a faster and healthier way to prepare foods. Nutrients are preserved at much higher rates than other\, conventional cooking methods\, flavours are intensified and\, again\, cooking time can be reduced by up to 70%. Throw in the fact that you are using less energy\, wasting less water and how can you go wrong? \nUnfortunately\, many of us have scary memories of our grandmother’s pressure cooker\, hissing\, spitting and rattling away on the stove like a time bomb\, threatening to blow at any moment. Well\, today we are lucky enough to have access to a new generation of electric pressure cookers that are safe\, easy to use and that can save you hours in the kitchen. \nPopular food blogger\, photographer and stylist Carole Nelson Browne will show you how can use this amazing kitchen time-saver to prepare some of the most popular pressure cooker dishes. You will learn how to cook: \nPotato Leek Soup\nWhite Bean Salad\nChicken Chili Verde and basmati rice\nInstant Pot Gingerbread Bread Pudding \nAll made right in the pot! \nCarole will be using the Instant Pot\, a Canadian pressure cooker that also functions as a rice cooker\, a slow cooker\, a yogurt maker\, steamer and is amazing with all manner of pulses\, grains and dried beans. We will discuss all kinds of tips and tricks\, foods that are well suited to the pressure cooker and foods that are not. \n$60 (+HST) \n—–\nCarole Nelson Brown‘s passions for food and her family —although not necessarily in that order — are legendary. From her love of blogging in The Yum Yum Factor\, including showcasing delicious and unique ethnic and everyday recipes as well as reviewing local restaurants and other exciting edible happenings in Toronto and beyond\, teaching cooking classes\, completing a personal challenge of never repeating the same recipe twice for a full year (which proved easier said than done!) to developing recipes for brands\, Carole has found her niche in the food world by drawing on her vast travel experience and food knowledge for inspiration as well as the daily ups and downs of her life for humour. \nWhen she’s not busy creating magic in her own kitchen\, Carole\, an in-demand makeup artist\, works her magic on celebrities from Kristen Stewart to Bruce Willis. You can check out her makeup portfolio at Carole Nelson Makeup \n—–\nEvery Sunday\, The Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops. \nFind out more about Workshops at The Depanneur

SUMMARY:LUNCH & LEARN: Mexican Street Food with Erika Araujo
DESCRIPTION:Mexican street food goes way beyond tacos\, but we rarely see any of the other amazing delicacies featured on Canadian menus. In this fun\, hands-on workshop Erika Araujo will introduce you to two popular Mexican favourites\, sopes and tlacoyos\, along with recipes for the delicious fillings and salsas that make these dishes shine. \nSopes are a traditional Mexican dish originating in the central and southern parts of Mexico. Like an extra thick tortilla\, this circle of fried corn masa has raised\, pinched sides to help it hold a wide variety of toppings like black beans\, crumbled cheese\, lettuce\, onions\, salsa verde and sour cream. \nTlacoyos are an oval-shaped pre-Hispanic Mexican dish also made from corn masa. Somewhat torpedo-shaped\, they are fatter than tortillas and often stuffed with cooked ground beans\, cheese or other ingredients before being fried or griddled. These tlacoyos will be served with nopales cactus salad and salsa. \nParticipants will learn how to make the masa dough and form the sopes and tlacoyos\, along with the recipes for the refried beans\, green tomatillo & jalapeño salsa and nopales cactus salad. There will be plenty of toppings and garnishes for everyone to customize their own sopes and tlacoyos when the class sits down for a Mexican street food feast!\n—– \n$60 +HST \n—–\nErika Araujo is a trained nurse in Mexico who found her passion for Gastronomy once she migrated to Canada. She completed the Culinary program at Humber College\, and since then she has been tirelessly promoting Mexican culture and cuisine through her brand Ixiim Toronto\, at workshops and culinary events like TacoFest\, Soupalicious and the PanAm Games\, where she was the only Mexican chef featured. \n—–\nEvery Monday\, The Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops. \nLearn more about Workshops at The Depanneur

SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB: La Fin de l'Eté en Roussillon by Chantal Vechambre
DESCRIPTION:France is home to the concept of terroir – the taste of a specific place – the combination of geography and season\, history and culture\, tradition and food that give each region its unique specialties. Chef Chantal Véchambre combines her study of the history of French cuisine with decades of experience in the kitchen to offer us a glimpse into the diverse flavours of France. \nThe Roussillon is a part of the large Languedoc region in south of France\, touching the Mediterranean Sea and bordering Spain. Roussillon shares much history with Catalonia\, the unique and independent Spanish province\, with common roots in the millennia of Greeks\, Romans\, Moors and others who have left their influence there. Their culinary tradition is indeed an ancient one\, with one of the oldest European cookbook\, the Book of Sent Sovi from 1324\, being written here\, a precious trove of medieval recipes. \nThe Roussillon was a longstanding Catalan kingdom centered in Perpignan until the Louis XIV annexed it in 1659\, but the culture\, language\, culinary traditions and ingredients remained largely Catalan for centuries. Red bell peppers\, tomatoes\, olives\, artichokes\, chorizo\, anchovies\, cod\, and garlic\, are essential foundations of this colorful and flavorful cuisine. \nNow part of the present-day département of Pyrénées-Orientales (Eastern Pyrenees)\, within the larger Languedoc-Roussillon region\, it boasts a reputation for many classic white and red wines\, as well as some more unique Vins Doux Naturels (VDN) like the famous Muscat de Rivesaltes \nBon profit! (*«Bon appetit » in Catalan)\n—–\n \nSelection of Tapas \nBrochette Cantaloup \nMelon\, spiced with sesame and thyme \nTortilla\nClassic Spanish omelet with potatoes\, onions and chorizo \nCroquetas\nDelicate blend of Bechamel and chicken\, rolled in bread crumbs and fried \nVol au Vent Catalane\nMini puff pastries filled with anchovies and tomatoes \nChampignons Marinés\nMushrooms marinated in Muscat de Rivesaltes\, with carrots julienne\, artichokes\, onions\, and spiced with cumin\n—– \nMorue à la Catalane\nFrom Portugal to Provence\, through Spain and all Languedoc\, cod is a staple in the South of Europe\, each region adding their local ingredients\, spices and vegetables. “A la Catalane” refers to cod roasted in a crust of flour\, then simmered a rich sauce of tomatoes\, red peppers\, onion\, garlic\, thyme\, bay leaves\, black pepper and olive oil. Served with Camargue rice from the salt marshes of Southern France\, and some toasted bread rubbed with garlic. \nCreme Catalane\nThe most famous of Catalunya’s desserts is a cousin to French creme brûlée — one of Chef Chantal’s specialities — but typically cooked on the stove instead of the oven. Crema catalana uses citrus peel and sometimes cinnamon to flavour the custard\, and the crisp sugar crust is traditionally caramelized using a special small round hot iron made for this purpose.\n—– \n$60 +HST \n—–\nChantal Véchambre\, originally from Paris\, is a chef certified in both French cuisine and Pastry-chocolate. In 2005 she moved to New Brunswick where research in culinary history led her to the Fortress of Louisbourg\, where she developed recipes and culinary workshops inspired by the site’s 18th century recipes\, culminating in an award-winning book: French Taste in Atlantic Canada\, 1604-1758. Now established in Toronto\, Chantal pursues food writing and culinary adventures\, and professional catering through her company My Creme Caramel. \n—–\nEvery weekend The Depanneur invites a guest chef to host a fun\, family-style dinner party. \nLearn more about the Rusholme Park Supper Club

SUMMARY:MASTER CLASS: Sous Weed — Cooking with Cannabis 101 by Carole Nelson Brown
DESCRIPTION:Finally medical and recreational cannabis is legal\, but not everyone wants to smoke… Cannabis-infused edibles offer a more pleasant\, varied and precise way to incorporate the benefits of cannabis into your lifestyle\, but uninspired\, store-bought gummies or brownies provide less control over dosage or quality of ingredients. If you are curious about understanding the world of “medibles” and want to learn how you can make them yourself\, this is the class for you. \nAt the heart of cannabis-infused products is decarboxylation\, a simple process during which cannabis is heated to activate its psychoactive and relaxing effects. Applying heat turns the THCA (the non-psychoactive acid form that is a great anti-inflammatory) into TCH (the fun stuff). This happens naturally when you smoke it but in order to cook with it\, you need to find another way — and that is where sous vide comes in. Sous vide is a method of cooking that involves sealing foods in vacuum sealed\, food-grade plastic and putting it in a temperature controlled water bath. It’s an amazing way to cook a steak\, but it’s also a perfect way to easily and precisely decarboxolate cannabis without the aggressive smell or risks associated with old-fashioned\, oven-based methods. \nIn this 2 hour demo\, Carole Nelson Brown will show you how to discreetly decarb cannabis in your own home\, as well as how to then use it to infuse any cooking oil\, butter\, milk or cream. We will discuss dosing as precisely as possible\, how different strains lend themselves to different infusions\, how to pair flavour profiles with food\, and some tricks to make your infusions more efficient and effective. \nFor this demo Carole will demonstrate infusing coconut oil\, olive oil\, dulce de leche\, and butter\, and you will get to taste some delicious dishes that will showcase some creative recipes to use infused products in your own kitchen. Recipes will printed and be available for participants to take home. \nWhipped Canna Honey Butter – served with warm\, Irish Soda Bread\nPound Cake with Thick\, Fruity Canna Whipped Cream\nGrilled Mediterranean Salad with Haloumi\nSous Vide Poached Shrimp with Infused Spicy Togarashi Garlic Oil \n—– \n$90 + HST \n—– \nNOTE: these recipes have been developed and tested with infused products in mind\, but the samples served in class will NOT be cannabis-infused.\n—–\nCarole Nelson Brown’s passions for food and her family —although not necessarily in that order — are legendary. From her love of blogging in The Yum Yum Factor\, including showcasing delicious and unique ethnic and everyday recipes as well as reviewing local restaurants and other exciting edible happenings in Toronto and beyond\, teaching cooking classes\, completing a personal challenge of never repeating the same recipe twice for a full year (which proved easier said than done!) to developing recipes for brands\, Carole has found her niche in the food world by drawing on her vast travel experience and food knowledge for inspiration as well as the daily ups and downs of her life for humour. \n—– \nThe Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops and pop-up food events \n\n\nFind out more about Workshops at The Depanneur

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Italian Favourites by Riley Stadnik
DESCRIPTION:“I love cheese. There I said it. I also love meat. Said it again. My secrets are out. There is so much potential with these ingredients and they can lead you in so many different directions that all the possibilities excite me to no end. These dishes from start to finish show off the way in which cheese and meat can shine.”\n—Riley Stadnik \nRiley Stadnik has been cooking professionally all through his twenties and has fallen deeply in love with Italian cuisine. Tonight he shares some of his favourite dishes\, showcasing uniquely Italian ingredients.\n—– \nNduja Crostini  $8\n‘Nduja is a distinctive traditional Calabrese salumi\, notable for its soft\, spreadable texture\, intense red colour and potent spiciness. This crostini features ‘nduja with white anchovy\, basil\, focaccia; spicy\, fresh\, and just a hint of umami. \nMushroom Crostini  $8\nMixed mushrooms\, creme fraiche\, parmigiano reggiano\, focaccia. There’s nothing quite like mushroom toast; creamy\, funky\, and sharp all at the same time. (#vegetarian) \nCarbonara  $14\nA classic Roman pasta dish; Guanciale — cured pork jowl (imagine an exquisitely buttery and flavourful bacon) with pecorino romano\, black pepper\, egg yolk. \nCacio E Pepe  $11\n“Cheese and pepper” in several central Italian dialects\, this is another classic dish that simply combines a generous amount of pecorino romano and black pepper to great effect. (#vegetarian) \nCannoli $6\nSweet ricotta\, lemon\, pistachio. There’s nothing like a finding a way to combine sweet and cheese. Crunchy shell\, soft inside. A perfect way to finish the night. \nPrix Fixe $25  (#vegetarian $22)\nCrostini + Carbonara + Cannoli \n—–\nRiley Stadnik has trained in classic and modern Italian cuisine at places like Enoteca Sociale\, Lil Baci\, and others\, all in pursuit of an all-consuming passion for the delicious magic of Italian food. Starting from the dish pit\, he devoted himself to learning everything that has made Italian food world famous from pizza to pasta\, salumi\, cheese\, and more… \nI love to learn and plan never to stop learning everything I can about cooking from anyone I can. Food can be an expression of love and love is always found in good food and I hope to show that to anyone I cook for. \n—–\nEvery week The Depanneur hosts an ‘open mic’ night for culinary talent in TO\, where we invite guest cooks\, amateur or professional\, to come and make their favourite dishes. \nLearn more about our Drop-In Dinners

SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB: Tunisian Seafood Chermoula by Dali Chehimi
DESCRIPTION:Tunisian cuisine features all the hallmarks of delicious North African food: complex spices\, Mediterranean ingredients and a hint of French colonial influence. Tagines\, the flavourful stews that range from Morocco to Egypt\, get their name from the characteristic conical dishes of the same name that they are most often cooked in.\n\n\n \n\n\nDali Chehimi has put together a delightful menu featuring several classic Tunisian dishes\, many rarely seen in Toronto.\n\n\n \n\n\n—–\n\n\nSalade Mechouia with Merguez\n\n\nMechouia is a Tunisian salad of grilled tomato\, garlic\, onion\, sweet and hot peppers\, seasoned with caraway\, capers and olives. It is served with grilled merguez\, North Africa’s popular thin\, spicy lamb sausages\, and fresh baguette.\n\n\n \n\n\nChermoula Seafood Tagine\n\n\nChermoula is a unique blend of herbs and seasonings found across the Maghreb. In Algerian\, Libyan\, Moroccan and Tunisian cooking it is commonly used to flavor fish or seafood. Every family has their own unique variation\, but common ingredients include garlic\, cumin\, coriander\, and lemon juice\, but may also include pickled lemons\, chili peppers\, saffron\, or other herbs. Here delicate cod\, shrimp and calamari are marinated in the chermoula paste\, then cooked with diced tomatoes and chickpeas in the traditional North African tagine style. \n\n\n \n\n\nIt is served alongside a light steamed couscous\, a hearty Moroccan-spiced pumpkin and chickpea stew\, and Dali’s famous homemade spicy harissa.\n\n\n \n\n\nTunisian Sabayon\n\n\nSweet\, orange blossom infused custard with fresh fruit salad garnished with crushed pistachios and almonds\n\n\n—–\n\n\n \n\n\n$60 +HST\n\n\n \n\n\n—–\n\n\nA veteran Toronto restaurateur\, Dali Chehimi’s storied career has seen him working at iconic restaurants such as Sassafraz\, Sarkis and Avec\, as well as catering in Tunisian fare through his pop-up Casbah.\n\n\n \n\n\n—–\n\n\nEvery weekend The Depanneur invites a guest chef to host a fun\, informal BYOB dinner party.\n\n\n \n\n\nLearn more about the Rusholme Park Supper Club

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Jump Up Soup by Greg Couillard
DESCRIPTION:Despite being such an incredible food city\, Toronto does not have much in the way of unique\, signature dishes. I hereby nominate Chef Greg Couillard’s Jump Up Soup as one. For a time this was probably Toronto’s most famous dish\, inspired by the first Caribana Parade in 1967 – a riot of colour\, music and tropical heat that crashed through the stolid grey of downtown Toronto much like Greg’s cooking would do to the restaurant scene in the decades that followed.\n—– \nDoubles $7\nGreg’s take on a favourite street snack in Trinidad & Tobago; doubles are tender dough fritters sandwiched with a savoury chickpea curry jacked with Jamaican pumpkin and red lentils — even better spiked with Greg’s signature hot sauce! \nJump Up Soup  $12\nBased on a traditional Jamaican “pepper pot” soup\, this hearty\, spicy soup features Jamaican pumpkin\, sweet potato\, chayote\, sweet and hot peppers and the complex spices that are Greg’s claim to fame.\nServed with Coconut Rice. #vegan #glutenfree\nAdd jerk chicken thigh +$4 \nTropical Trifle $7\nGreg’s juicy & colourful mix of tropical fruit\, custard\, sponge cake\, whipped cream and a splash of rum is nothing to be trifled with! \nPrix Fixe Menu $25\nDoubles + Jump Up Soup + Trifle  |  add chicken +$4 \n—-\nIt would not be hyperbole to suggest that Greg Couillard is one of the most influential chefs in Toronto’s culinary history. Through groundbreaking restaurants like The Parrot\, Stelle\, Avec\, Sarkis\, The Spice Room and many others\, his prescient embrace of this city’s multicultural flavours and ingredients revolutionized fine dining in Toronto\, and foreshadowed the eclectic\, international menus many now take for granted. \n—–\nEvery week The Depanneur hosts an ‘open mic’ night for culinary talent in TO\, where we invite guest cooks\, amateur or professional\, to come and make their favourite dishes. \nLearn more about our Drop-In Dinners

SUMMARY:TABLE TALK: Chef Francoise Briet on Nutrition and Healing
DESCRIPTION:What is nutrition? We all intuitively know that our health and well-being is intimately connected to what we eat\, but how much do we truly understand about how and why food affects us? Consumers and the food industry alike are eager for simple\, ‘silver bullet’ solutions\, but reality is more complicated. With so much competing\, often conflicting information out there\, it can be challenging to understand how to make the right food choices. Chef Francoise Briet brings three unique perspectives to the intersection of food and health: her technical background as a research scientist in metabolic nutrition\, her culinary expertise as Chef at the French Consulate\, and her own personal journey of healing through diet. \nDinner by Len Senater\nThis meal is inspired by the bounty of the late summer vegetable harvest\, a plant-centric Mediterranean menu from the South of France. \nWatermelon Salad with Feta and Mint • Grilled Vegetable Ratatouille with Basil Gremolata and Crispy Socca (a thin chickpea flour & olive oil polenta popular around Nice)\, garnished with fennel sausage or grilled portobello • Stone fruit compote with coconut custard & aquafaba meringue \n#GF #vegan options available \n—–\nDoors open at 6pm\, talk starts at 7pm\nIncludes dinner and coffee or tea.\n$35 (includes HST) \nBOOK NOW\n—–\nFrancoise Briet is the Chef of the General Consulate of France in Toronto\, and the owner of Malty and Hoppy Delicacy\, a company that uses Ontario craft beer in small-batch artisan jellies\, jams and other delicacies. Before that\, Francoise was a clinical research scientist in the field of metabolic nutrition. Over the past two years\, Francoise personally experienced the impact of trauma and illness\, so she turned to her understanding of metabolic nutrition to help support her recovery. This experience had a transformative impact on her wellbeing\, and has helped her develop a more health-conscious approach to food. \n—–\nThis Table Talk is presented in collaboration with Artery\nEvery space is a stage. Artery lets anyone bring creative experiences to life\, in places you may not expect.\n \n—–\nEvery month The Depanneur invites a local food personality to talk about something that interests them while Dep founder Len Senater cooks dinner for everyone.\nFind out more on Table Talks at The Depanneur

SUMMARY:OFFSITE WORKSHOP: Full-Day Breadmaking Intensive by Leo Baduria
DESCRIPTION:Note that this workshop is NOT at The Depanneur!\nIt will take place at The Paint Box Bistro at 555 Dundas Street East\, M5A 2B7\n—– \nLABOUR DAY — Full-Day Bread Making Workshop! \nJoin artisanal baker Leo Baduria for a full-day\, in-depth exploration of the fundamentals of great bread. You’ll learn how to make your own sourdough starter\, and how to prepare different types of dough\, using various grains and flours. There will be hands-on practice of the techniques to folding\, kneading and shaping dough to make focaccia/fougasse\, baguettes\, boules\, batards and brioches\, including challah braids. \nThe morning focuses on dough-making; first for the focaccia and pizza\, followed by the dough for baguettes\, boules and batards using different types of flour. This is then followed by making the brioche dough\, which takes longer to rise. \nThe afternoon focuses on the shaping and baking of the various breads\, starting with the focaccia and pizza dough. By mid-afternoon the baguette\, boules and batards will be ready to shape. While they are baking\, the brioche dough will be ready for shaping into various types\, such as challah\, loaf\, brioche buns. \nThroughout the day there will be oven-fresh bread to snack on with cheese\, fruits\, and some charcuterie — please feel free to bring any topping you’d like to share! \n$150 +HST \n—–\nLeo Baduria‘s introduction to fine breads started in Montreal where he lived from 1977 to 1988. This beautiful city boasts a large number of fine boulangeries in just about every quartier where one can find a superb baguette for dinner or croissant for breakfast. \nThis growing fascination with French breads led him to try baking his own baguettes via several books on French baking. Over time\, Leo assisted several bakers in Montreal\, France and Italy – learning techniques that he would incorporate in his own baking – and has since given several sold out bread workshops to bread lovers who wanted to learn the artisanal way of making bread. Leo’s approach to baking is one that respects the soul of the living yeasts\, the quality of grains used to make the flour and the enjoyment of the whole baking process from start to finish. \n—–\nEvery week\, The Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops. \nLearn more about Workshops at The Depanneur

SUMMARY:OFFSITE WORKSHOP: Croissants from Scratch by Leo Baduria
DESCRIPTION:Note that this workshop is NOT at The Depanneur!\nIt will take place at The Paint Box Bistro at 555 Dundas Street East\, M5A 2B7\n—–\nMorning  (10am-1pm) & Afternoon (2-5pm) Sessions Available \nJoin artisanal baker Leo Baduria to discover the secrets of one of French pastry’s most magical delights – the flaky\, delicate butter croissant. You will learn the whole process of creating your own croissants\, from the base yeated brioche dough\, to the techniques of butter lamination that creates the croissant’s signature delicate layered texture. This versatile dough can be used to make a variety of pastries like pain au chocolat\, cinnamon swirls\, palmiers and more. There will be delicious fresh croissants to enjoy in class\, and participants will be able to take additional dough to bake at home.\n—– \n$75 +HST \n—–\nLeo Baduria‘s introduction to fine breads started in Montreal where he lived from 1977 to 1988. This beautiful city boasts a large number of fine boulangeries in just about every quartier where one can find a superb baguette for dinner or croissant for breakfast. \nThis growing fascination with French breads led him to try baking his own baguettes via several books on French baking. Over time\, Leo assisted several bakers in Montreal\, France and Italy – learning techniques that he would incorporate in his own baking – and has since given several sold out bread workshops to bread lovers who wanted to learn the artisanal way of making bread. Leo’s approach to baking is one that respects the soul of the living yeasts\, the quality of grains used to make the flour and the enjoyment of the whole baking process from start to finish. \n—–\nEvery week\, The Depanneur invites TO’s best culinary talents to lead fun\, hands-on workshops. \nLearn more about Workshops at The Depanneur

The result is a thick paste used for sauces and spreads\, pickling vegetables or meats\, and mixing with dashi soup stock to serve as miso soup called misoshiru (味噌汁)\, a Japanese culinary staple. \nTypically\, miso is salty\, but its flavor and aroma depend on various factors in the ingredients and fermentation process. Different varieties of miso have been described as salty\, sweet\, earthy\, fruity\, and savory. High in protein and rich in vitamins and minerals\, miso played an important nutritional role in feudal Japan. Miso is still widely used in Japan\, both in traditional and modern cooking\, and has been gaining worldwide interest.\n—– \n$90 +HST \n—–\nCheryl Paswater is a Fermentationist\, Educator\, Health Coach\, Artist\, Beekeeper\, and Writer who after a near-death experience\, turned to holistic medicine for help.

SUMMARY:SUPPER CLUB: To Di World by Winslow Taylor
DESCRIPTION:With Toronto’s Caribana just around the corner — currently the largest cultural event in Canada and the largest outdoor festival in North America — it’s a perfect opportunity to get into the Caribbean Carnival spirit. Inspired by Jamaica’s motto\, “Out of many\, one people”\, award-winning Chef Winslow Taylor has crafted an elegant menu representing some of the many cultures found in Jamaica and across the Caribbean. These dishes are infused with flavours inspired by Afro-Caribbean\, Indo-Caribbean\, Latin American and Creole cuisines — tropical ingredients\, island spices\, a touch of heat and plenty of skill\, care and love.\n—— \nJamaican Rum Punch\nA classic Jamaican cocktail of citrus fruits\, pineapple juice\, strawberry syrup and lime — we’ll provide the base\, feel free to add your own rum! \nCrab and Callalloo Soup\nA slow-cooked soup made with coconut milk and callalloo — a staple leafy green in the islands\, similar to spinach — spiced with scotch bonnet pepper\, pimento seeds and thyme\, and jeweled with nuggets of tender\, sweet crab meat. \nPrawn\, Plantain and Avocado Salad\nCreole-spiced prawns sit atop lightly dressed ripe plantains\, soft avocado\, black beans and juicy tomato. \nBraised Oxtail Stew\nOxtail dishes are found in many countries of the West African diaspora. One could do an oxtail tour of the West Indies and the Americas and never grow tired of the many iterations of oxtails\, an essential dish in Jamaican cuisine. This slow-cooked\, rum-infused version is punctuated by the universal Jamaican provisions: garlic\, onions\, allspice and Scotch bonnet peppers for a luscious and deeply-flavoured gravy. Served with nutmeg-roasted carrots and cassava mash. \nCoconut Rum Rice Pudding Parfait\nCreamy rice pudding with of nutmeg\, cinnamon and coconut rum\, layered into a parfait with sweet ripe mango and topped with toasted coconut.\n—– \n$60 +HST \n—–\nWinslow Taylor is a native of rural Jamaica and the creator of Brawta Caribbean.

SUMMARY:DROP-IN DINNER: Jamaican Flava by Monique Creary
DESCRIPTION:When it comes to Jamaican food\, many people are familiar with jerk chicken and beef patties\, but there is a long list of delicious dishes that you might not have tried before. Jamaican cuisine is an eclectic mix of influences from its Indigenous population\, along with the different cultures who have settled on the island nation throughout history. African\, Spanish\, British\, Indian\, and Chinese are just some of the people who have left their mark on the flavourful cuisine. With inspiration from her Jamaican heritage\, Monique Creary brings some must-try dishes to the menu. \nStamp & Go (Saltfish Fritters ) $6\nYou can call this one of Jamaica’s original “fast foods”. Flaked\, salted cod is fried in a flour batter with tomatoes and scallions.

Served with white rice and a Jamaican Jerk Salad of iceberg lettuce\, tomatoes\, cucumber\, red onions\, a touch of scotch bonnet peppers\, and a sweet-lime vinaigrette. #vegetarian option available \nToto (Coconut Cake)  $5\nIt’s origins go back to the time of plantations on the island\, where slaves would use what they had to make a sweet\, innovative snack. This version is infused with nutmeg\, ginger and allspice. \nPrix Fixe Menu – $25\nSaltfish Fritters + Stew Peas w/ sides + Coconut Cake \n——\nMonique Creary is a self-taught cook who’s love for food started at an early age.
