These days, cooking at home is a top priority for me. Compared to the hectic pace of a restaurant — where cooking on the line requires lightning speed and expert precision — cooking at home is all about taking things slow, putting on a good playlist, and knowing a few sure-fire techniques to make meals quick and easy, especially during those busy weekdays.
Chuck’s Home Cooking features my favourite go-to recipes to cook for my family, whether it’s an easy weeknight dinner, a delicious weekend treat, or a dish to impress on special occasions. One thing is for sure: they’re all on steady rotation in my home and approved by my toughest critics: my kids.
It covers everything I love to make at home, from breakfast to dinner and everything in between. Bread, pasta, salads, soups & stews, fish & seafood, meat & poultry and desserts like everyday is cheat day. Includes (soon-to-be) classic recipes to make all year long, such as Fried Chicken with Hot Pepper Maple Glaze; Seafood Chowder; Meat Pie with Fruit Ketchup; Braised Beef Short Ribs; Sausage and Pepperoni Lasagna; Swordfish Kebobs; and Fish Burgers. Still got room for more? Good, because there is even a whole chapter dedicated to my love of maple syrup with a complete cabane à sucre feast.
