Pears are at their peak in early autumn
A lot of people mentally checked out of summer after Labour Day but the real first day of fall is today! Fall happens to be my favourite season so I couldn’t be happier. In many areas, the weather is still very pleasant and the farmers’ markets are still bursting with plenty of late-summer and fall produce. As the weather turns crisp in the weeks ahead, I’m looking forward to enjoying some warm spiced apple cider, putting on some slow-cooked braises, taking walks through the brilliant foliage and getting the fireplace going for the season. To get in the mood, here are a few of my favourite autumn recipes:
Sablefish with Caramelized Fennel and Cherry Tomatoes
Stuffed Pork Tenderloin Wrapped with Prosciutto
Orecchiette with Rapini, Sausage and Crisp Garlic Crumbs
Brussels Sprouts with Bacon and Maple
Pumpkin Cream Puffs with Maple-Caramel Sauce
Pumpkin Pie with Maple-Walnut Praline
