CHEF ILONA: MEXICAN STREET CORN PASTA SALAD
Tumblr media
Pastas are an easy way to feed a crowd. Serve it up simply on a platter in family-style fashion, or plated for a lingering estival repast. One of the precious parts of summer dining in Canada is that we can enjoy our meals either indoors or al fresco. Dining al fresco can be as elaborate or as simple as  you like, and is about the experience of unwinding.

Mexican street corn, or “elote” is a staple of the street food scene in Mexico City. The word elote comes from the Nahuatl word for corn, and this dish is thought to have originated with the Aztecs. Elote is grilled corn on the cob covered in melted butter, mayo, chili powder, cotija cheese, and lime.
This recipe is a great place to use the glut of herbs in your summer garden. I think it’s almost impossible to have too many fresh soft herbs. If you have chives or edible flowers in your garden, add in to the mix with reckless abandon.
*********** Noodle size is important to consider for each pasta dish you make. It is often better to have a noodle that is of a similar size the rest of the ingredients in the dish, so you can enjoy a bit of everything in one bite.

Mexican Street Corn Pasta Salad Chef Ilona Daniel Serves 6
 1 lb short pasta noodles (such as ditali, rotini, fiorelli, fusilli, or other as preferred), cooked according to package directions
1 cucumber, sliced in half-way lengthwise, seeded and sliced into half-moons)
½ cup cilantro, roughly chopped
½ - 1 cup mild pickled jalapenos, chopped
½ cup red onion, small dice
1 cup cotija (or feta cheese), crumbled
3 cobs of corn
6 radishes, sliced thinly
3 green onions, sliced thinly on a bias for garnish
Dressing:
1 ½ cups sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup lime juice, freshly squeezed
1-2 Tablespoons Hot Sauce (I prefer a Mexican hot sauce here)
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 Tablespoons cilantro, chopped
 To prepare the dressing, combine all ingredients in a bowl, and stir to combine.
When tossing the noodles and other ingredients with the dressing, reserve ¼ cup to drizzle over the top of the salad as part of the garnish.
 For the salad:
 To enhance the visual appeal of the dish, reserve a little of all the vegetables to arrange over the top of the dressed pasta salad.
 In a large frying pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Add corn to the pan and cook until the corn is slightly browned.
–OR--
Brush corn with oil and season with salt to taste. Grill over medium-high heat for 5-10 minutes, turning throughout, until kernels begin to char. Allow to cool slightly before using a sharp knife to cut kernels from the cobs.
 In a large bowl, toss all the ingredients (except for the vegetables and cheese you’re saving for garnish) with all but ¼ cup of the dressing. Place pasta salad onto a plate and arrange with remaining vegetables and cheese. Drizzle remaining dressing over the top, and if desired, feel free to sprinkle a small amount of chili powder over the surface of the salad for added depth.

Vancouver Island.🌴🌤
Vancouver Island is an island in the northeastern Pacific Ocean and part of the Canadian province of British Columbia. The island is 456 km (283 mi) in length, 100 km (62 mi) in width at its widest point, and 32,100 km2 (12,400 sq mi) in total area, while 31,285 km2 (12,079 sq mi) are of land. The island is the largest by area and the most populous along the west coasts of the Americas. The southern part of Vancouver Island and some of the nearby Gulf Islands are the only parts of British Columbia or Western Canada to lie south of the 49th parallel. This area has one of the warmest climates in Canada, and since the mid-1990s has been mild enough in a few areas to grow Mediterranean crops such as olives and lemons.

CHEF ILONA: HONEY BEER BREAD
Tumblr media
Chef Ilona’s Honey Beer Bread
Makes 1 loaf
Ingredients:
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 Tbsp. sugar
• 1 Tbsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. salt
• 2 Tbsp. Honey
• 1 tall can craft beer like ale or Pilsner
• 4 Tbsp butter, melted
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a loaf pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a wooden spoon, stir the beer and honey into the dry ingredients until just mixed. (I put my honey in the microwave for a few seconds. Mix very lightly, just until make sure all the ingredients had come together and all the dry ingredients were incorporated into beer.)
3. Pour half the melted butter into the loaf pan. Then spoon the batter into the pan and pour the rest of the butter on top of the batter.
