Besides pumpkin and sesame seeds, this soup’s garnish also contains kasha. These small triangular grains are actually toasted buckwheat groats and have a texture similar to nuts. Kasha gives soups and salads a little crunchy kick and can even help liven up grilled meats.

Sweet and Salty Chocolate Cake with Almond Crisp
This marriage is standard in a lot of cuisines (chicken and waffles!), but recently, the dynamic duo of savoury-sweet has taken on new realms, with chefs pushing the boundaries of dessert (from Le Vin Papillon’s tomato-verbena-olive oil sorbet in Montreal to New York chef Dominique Ansel’s sweet-corn crepes with smoked toffee, lemon, brown sugar and black pepper). Food companies are launching products like vegetable yogurts and we’re noticing a salty twist in traditionally sweet treats. You’ll never look at chocolate cake the same way after tasting our soy-sauce-infused creation, where the salty condiment is found in both the batter and the almond crisp topping. The result is a new flavour dimension: round, rich and deeply satisfying. Sound out of this world? It is.

Households all over the province of Quebec serve sumptuous ragoût de boulettes on December 25 (the literal translation, meatball stew, doesn’t do it justice). To give the old-school recipe a new spin, Ricardo transformed it into a soup. With Christmasy spices, pork meatballs and broth, a new tradition was born. To make it even more festive, they served the soup in a handsome tureen and ladled it out at the table.
