Our thanks to Chef Richard Moore of Tofino's Shelter Restaurant for providing this superb recipe for our June newsletter. Shelter Restaurant is a unique restaurant in Tofino offering the basics - food, wine and shelter - at their best! Shelter combines a sophisticated seasonal menu with a relaxed attitude and a panoramic view. Located at 601 Campbell Street, Shelter is open for lunch and dinner, and is a guide team favourite! * If your kitchen skills are similar to Lorrie's and the "sweat all vegetables" confused you, keep reading. "Sweat" in this case, means 'soften but don't colour'. A medium heat, a little oil and (here's the important bit), a pinch of salt to bring out the moisture in the veggies. Cook until translucent or soft. The key is: No Noise. (If you hear sizzling or hissing, turn it down, you're sauteing.) Gentle bubbling is all you need. Bon appetite!
