Easy candied orange peel
When December rolls around, you can count on me to first start thinking of what holiday treats I’ll be creating. Shortbread is a given, both sweet and savory. Fruitcake (yes!). Something chocolate, whether that’s a dark flourless cookie or almond roca bars, or – in rare years – chocolate fudge. And candied orange peel. It’s…
Easy Sautéed Kale with Garlic, Lemon and Chili
It’s been a little quiet on Ant & Anise lately. Kind of like a post-holiday rest, only it came at the end of January instead of the beginning. Did you miss us, just a little bit? Awww, thanks. With the holidays clearly over and done with, we’re back into regular routines, more or less. And…
Gluten-Free Granola #1
Bob’s favorite breakfast these days is fresh fruit topped with Greek yogurt and granola. Reasonable, right? Only thing is, it’s a generous helping of all three, piled up high like a mountain.

Chocolate Covered Coconut Snowballs: Gluten & grain free holiday treats

Oat Cardamom Shortbread
Marion Smith, a Scottish friend and neighbour of my grandmother’s, was an expert shortbread maker. Every year she would make multiple batches of her shortbread to package up in tins and mail to faraway friends and family. I loved Marion’s Scottish shortbread. It had the same basic ingredients — butter, sugar, flour — as my…
