The second challenge for Canada’s top chefs was The Black Box portion of the competition. Well in this case it was a white box, but let’s not be racist. It was an Iron Chef like competition, Chefs had to use 6 mystery ingredients to make 2 dishes in 1 hour.

Thank you so much to everyone who came out and joined me at The Long Table at Salty Tongue Cafe for my first ever public Apple Pie In-A-Jar sampling! The response was overwhelming and thanks for everyone’s support we ended up selling out of Apple Pie In-A-Jars in an hour!

In celebration of February being Apple Month, BC Tree Fruits and I have teamed up for an Apple Pie In-A-Jar sampling at the Salty Tongue Cafe! So what’s an Apple Pie In-A-Jar? Well it’s basically a take on my Canadian Pie In-A-Jar that was on Food Network Canada’s Recipe to Riches!
