Winter

These winter recipes are the remedy for cold days in Nova Scotia, beginning with my favourite, my Mum’s slow-simmered Dutch oven beef stew. Try a pot of chicken Florentine soup, hamburger stew, or my Dad’s traditional recipe for sausage and sauerkraut. You’ll also find molasses baked beans, pasta dishes, and seasonal baking such as old-fashioned gingerbread cake.
