Antipasto literally means “before the meal” and is the first course in a traditional Italian meal.  Small bites of tasty food, usually accompanied with wine meant to stimulate the appetite.

Thanks to Julia Child, the New York Times and Cob’s Bread Bakery………..for a Sunday lunch worth a picture! The Times ran a story this week about one of Julia Child’s favourites – the Tuna Sandwich. She ate such rich food travelling, that when at home…

We buy Ocean’s Albacore Solid White Tuna. It’s circle hook caught, meaning the amount of marine life mistakenly caught is reduced and its subtle flavour is perfect if you aren’t using fresh tuna.

  Lunch is a pretty casual affair for the most part. Tuna is a staple, whether it’s on rice cakes, bread or part of a salad. Here we’ve dressed it up with avocado and olives on a very hot summer day.

  This is so good! We took a class at a local wine store years ago and the guest Chef was Brian Plunkett. The Wasabi Mayo is a must. Buy the best fresh tuna you can find from a fish store. More Wasabi won’t add…
