  A lovely way to prepare asparagus – decadent and delicious and makes the perfect lunch in Spring. What could be better than crusty, toasty bread, cooked asparagus tips, and a creamy sauce?

  This strawberry ice cream is one of the best I have ever tasted – it’s creamy with a rich berry flavour. I paired it with Angel Food Cake as a summer dessert treat.

• Mrs. Willson’s Salad Dressing – early 1900’s

  

  Why make your own salad dressings? Because they are healthier, and simply taste far better than store-bought. This one is delicious, requires just a little bit of cooking, and goes beautifully with a Waldorf Salad, as a dressing for coleslaw, or can stand on it’s own as a veggie dip.

• Creamy Cabbage Salad – 1903

  

  Coleslaw is a summer favourite of mine, and this cabbage salad is sweet and delicate with a light and airy texture. This is great for those looking for a mayo-free alternative, and the lemon gives this a beautiful flavour.
