British Columbia

The sixth province to join into Confederation, British Columbia is Canada’s westernmost province, sharing a long, island-strewn coastline with the Pacific Ocean. Combine Washington, Oregon, and Montana into one giant state, and it would not equal the size of BC. And yet, half of BC’s population lives in the greater Vancouver area, leaving much of BC open to spectacular, unspoiled scenery. BC’s official motto gives testimony to its wall-to-wall beauty: “Splendor without diminishment.” Along with fresh local seafood (salmon, halibut, mussels), BC has built a unique brand of Pacific Northwest cuisine, inspired by regional game meats like caribou, elk, and moose and foraged foods like wild berries and mushrooms. A large Asian population is also helping shape the cuisine of British Columbia. In North America, only San Francisco has a larger Chinese community. In Vancouver’s backyard, meanwhile, just beyond the rain-catching Coast Mountains, the Okanagan Valley produces some of Canada’s best wines.

Chutney Chicken

Reviewed on Dec. 3, 2008 by Laura
Considering how few ingredients, this was pretty darn good! Cooked up some chicken thighs and breasts. The only thing I wasn't too fond of was the crunchy bits of onion from the onion soup, but other than that, it was great.

One-Dish Beef Stroganoff and Noodles

Reviewed on Dec. 3, 2008 by Laura
Flavor was prett good, but consistency of the sauce needs work. Cooked the onions with the beef and substituted dried parsley for fresh. Substituted sour cream for yogurt. Even after doubling the amount of yogurt called for in the recipe, I still found the sauce to be too thin for my liking. If I make this again, I will cut back on the broth or water.
