Winter Spiced Old Fashioned

As simple as can be but oh, so beautiful.

Mix:

2oz bourbon or good quality rye over ice in an old fashioned glass

1-2 teaspoons Spiced Simple Syrup (see recipe link)

Stir to chill and lightly dilute. Add a few rose petals or orange slice to garnish, and enjoy.

One of my favourite dishes to date! I’m completely in love with the nasturtiums and how they are thriving in the garden right now, so I layered their beauty and flavour! The gorgeous tomatoes from @parachute_farm had a slow and low olive oil bath, others became tomato water that turned into gelée with a blossom tucked right in. Nasturtium leaves were blitzed into a vibrant green oil, a cultured cashew cheese filled the bouncy blossoms. The cherry on the sundae was a crystal clear, tiny bead of ‘dew’ which was actually a sphere of orange blossom water caught in the nook of the nasturtium leaf. Thanks to the @hudsoncreativehub for inviting me to create the meal for this month’s Chef Creations event, I absolutely loved it! Also a quick and heartfelt thanks to @nanthas_kitchen , Ruby, Eddie, and all the lovely volunteers who made it happen. 💕 #eatflowersbekind #florakitchenette #hudsonquebec #nasturtium

It gives me a thrill to grow flowers- to become an active part of the local ecosystem! Over the last few months I’ve created gardens on my land where there was previously only grass (and who needs grass??!). The birds have decided they like it here (a hummingbird just flew by as I type this!), the bees are here in numbers, and worms abound. The first 2/3rds of summer has been incredible watching the growth and transformation of the space, I’m excited to see what the autumn season brings. #growflowers #eatflowers #eatflowersbekind #florakitchenette #ontario #easthawkesbury #steugene #zinnia
This morning’s edible flower harvest from just my 2 planters at the front of the shop! It’s incredible to see how quickly an abundance of flowers can be grown.

Who doesn’t love a good crunch? Just like with flavours and presentation, texture is a critical aspect of creating a satisfying dish. I wanted a super crunchy base for my carrot lox so I came up with a beet infused, puffed tapioca cracker. The shape irregularity, the pop of colour, and the bubbly texture compliment the other components so well. #carrotlox #edibleflowers #floracocina #catering #floralfood #eatflowersbekind #hudsonquebec #appetizers #eatflowers #plantbased
