If you know anything about me, it’s probably that I LOVE to support local, and particularly local food. I was absolutely honoured to be asked to go and take part in a new series being put out by TBay In Season! The idea, which is being headed up by the Thunder Bay and Area Food Strategy and Eco-Superior, is to bring more awareness of what food is available locally. Every month, starting with this one, they will be releasing a video featuring a local chef creating a dish using primarily local ingredients. If you head to the TBay In Season website you can find the list of over 120 local ingredients and producers, as well as see the recipe videos as they are launched every month.
The first recipe video was launched today and featured Chef Nikos Mantis of Pinetree Catering and Nomad preparing BBQ Veal Steaks and Bok Choy. You can see my taste test/reaction video below! (Spoiler alert: IT WAS AMAZING!) You can also find the videos on the TBay in Season Instagram and Facebook at @tbayinseason there are links on my Instagram @jay_on_the_bay and you can also find them on OUR Instagram @999thebay
