Second Week of Holiday Gifts for Foodie-file Readers

The recipient of my second holiday cookbook gift is Barbara Di Michele from Montreal, Quebec. Barbara writes that she is a fan of Josee Di Stasio and tells me: “….I love that book. Josee’s recipes are always simple and tasty. I look forward to making new recipes from that book.” I’m so pleased a fan is getting Josee’s book a la distasio. Let us know if you make something from the book and how it turns out.

Recipes from Quebec’s favourite cooking show were featured in Canadian Living‘s November issue. Here’s one of Josee’s recipe for Spice Rub for all of you to take away. She recommends using it on salmon fillets. This is enough rub for four pieces.

In a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle grind: 2 Tbsp coriander seeds, 2 Tbsp mustard seeds. Mix the spices with 1 Tbsp granulated or maple sugar, 2 tsp sea salt and 1.2 tsp cracked black pepper.

OK, so there are still six more chances to take home a cookbook. Next week I will be giving away Bonnie Stern Friday Night Diners by Canadian cookbook icon Bonnie Stern. So don’t forget to sign up to have the foodie-file delivered directly to your e-mail inbox to be eligible for a Holiday gift from me!

I have a stack of other cookbooks that have come my way so keep watching for more holiday gifting over the next few weeks!
