Join us this Saturday from 11:30 A.M. -3:00 P.M. as we celebrate the launch of the newest sauce creation from our friends Brian & Cori at the House of Q 🔥
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Five Star Competition BBQ Sauce is a really cool balance of flavour… it is tangy and sweet with an awesome texture and it finishes with just a hint of heat. It is very well balanced.
Perfect for glazing grilled chicken, pork or beef. Simmered in sautéed onions or used in hand-made burgers or meatloaf.
Help us spread the word by RSVPing to our event on Facebook and sharing the event on your timeline! We can't wait to share this delicious sauce with you and your friends!
How many times have you gone to bake cookies or a cake & realized you forgot to take your butter out of the refrigerator & it is rock hard? You are probably incredibly impatient, just like us and end up turning to the microwave and accidentally melting it.
Rather than waiting for it to soften, simple grate the butter on your box grater - the same side you would use to grate your cheddar cheese. Spread out the fluffy shards of butter on a plate and they'll soften up even before you have the rest of your ingredients measured out. If you are making biscuits, scones or a pie crust simply add the frozen grated butter to your recipe for amazing results.
Use a set of chopsticks on either side of the potato/zucchini/vegetable/fruit that you're "hasslebacking" as a guard to prevent slicing through. The only part part left is making sure you slice your widths consistently and evenly (you can do it)!
Opened in 2001 and ranked among Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants, Au Pied de Cochon has become a true institution on the Quebec culinary scene. In firm contrast to the culinary trends promoting light and healthy recipes, the chef made his mark with rich and plentiful dishes. His reinvented cuisine made Au Pied de Cochon one of Montreal’s must-go restaurants, as well as a Quebec icon on the international culinary scene.
In 2019, Martin Picard decided to launch his own line of products inspired by his hearty cooking.
Au Pied Du Cochon Mustards:
Martin Picard created these three delicious maple mustards with foodies in mind. All made in Quebec. $9.99
Smoked Maple Baseball Mustard: Rediscover this unparalleled stadium classic! This condiment has everything you love about traditional yellow mustard, but goes beyond with its delicious smoky maple aromas. Simply use this baseball mustard in a hot dog or sandwich to give your lunch a truly unique flavour. Its sweet and smoky aromas also make it an ideal condiment for a nice piece of meat such as roast beef or pork.
Maple Butter Dijon Mustard: Those who love sweet and salty flavours will find exactly what they’re looking for in this condiment combining the bold flavour of Dijon mustard and the velvety sweetness of maple butter. Delicious with salmon!
Old Style Maple Dijon Mustard: Sometimes the classics are just what you're craving. A little sweet with all the classic notes of dijon that you love!
Martin Picard Maple Condensed Milk (300ml):
This maple condensed milk is an essential ingredient in comforting, typically Canadian cuisine. Give it a starring role in traditional dessert recipes – pies, cakes, sucre à la crème, etc. – or as a dip for your favourite fruit. You can even turn it into dulce de leche: simply boil the can for two hours to make a perfectly delectable caramel!
Be creative! This delicious condensed milk can also sweeten milkshakes or enhance an alcoholic drink – imagine a vodka shooter or a creamy margarita. $9.49
Toning it down!
Sometimes, you need to reduce the strength of RAW onions. Especially if you are making salsa or guacamole. Put your chopped onions in a sieve over the sink & pour boiling water over them. Rinse them with cold water & pat them dry. This will reduce their harshness without cooking them.
You may have gotten a little carried away with the heat in your chili and your dish is TOO SPICY. You can adjust the burn by adding some sugar or honey, the sweet actually helps offset the heat. You could also add some potatoes or carrots, or stir in some sour cream/ yogurt, the dairy will help neutralize the spice.
A little heavy handed with the SALT shaker? Try adding a bit of fresh lemon juice. The acidity will lend a bit of tartness & help bring the dish back into balance. You might also try adding some cooked rice or potato, the starch will absorb some of the salt. Add some stock, broth or tomato sauce, it will dilute the dish and you can re-season as necessary
