Birch Syrup
Marinated Sablefish
with Toasted Emmer Wheat and Dashi
Craft beer really lends itself to the seasons, saidwinfield. “Most winesmake sensemost of the year, but those ales—
there’s a certain kind of weather and a feeling you have. Youwant to have a different style of craft beer at that time.”
In this sunny entrée, the chef pairs rich and flavourful wildCanadian sablefish and very seasonal fiddleheads with
Big rock Brewery’s Traditional Ale. Pouring the broth over the balance of the dish, the dashi and birch syrup flavours
highlight the flaky sablefish, while thewheat adds texture and crunch.
