In mid March 2020, our HOK Canada staff, as with most of the rest of the world, found ourselves suddenly thrust into an unexpected and unprecedented mass work from home situation due to the prevalence of COVID-19. Those first few weeks of uncertainty and unfamiliar chaos brought a sense of urgency to the HOK studio. What were ways we could maintain our cherished social and familial culture while being separated from each other, with only virtual meetings providing any tangible yet fleeting connection? It is little wonder that our minds turned to nourishment as a means of comfort. In our offices in Calgary, Toronto, and Ottawa, our lunchtime (and breakfast, snack, and après work moments) are long treasured traditions of breaking bread together, sharing stories, laughter, friendship, mentoring, and advice. From brown bag lunch gatherings, to wine and cheese learning events, team building sushi making, and holiday breakfast feasts, the HOK family bonds on a daily basis with each other, no matter how frantic our work lives are. The team started to meet for lunch and drinks after work through video calls – not quite as satisfying as in person, but still a means of remaining socially connected. As a memento commemorating such an unusual moment in our legacy, the ‘HOK Cooks’ Recipe compilation was born! This exclusive selection of recipes ranging from favorite breakfasts, appetizers, entrees and desserts to cocktails, includes tried and true, passed down through generations heirlooms, as well as gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan options. We invite you to enjoy these tastes of home from our HOK family to yours.

I have never made jam before, but with all the extra time at home I thought I would try it. I found this recipe at Blue Zone website, and have made it 3 times already - first with raspberries, then strawberries and lastly with blueberries. I honestly think you can make with any fruit. It was great every time. I don’t think I will ever buy store bought jam again. Besides being one of the superseeds full of fiber and protein, chia seeds also absorb liquid and then take on a jelly-like texture. Therefore, they are the perfect hack for an easy, healthy jam compared to the normal jam-making process—which usually requires lots of sugar, pectin, and boiling for thickening. In addition to it being a healthier hack, it is also much easier than preparing traditional jam and only takes about 10 minutes from start to finish. We use honey for this recipe, but feel free to use maple syrup or agave. We recommend not using regular granulated white sugar, as that often makes for a gritty-textured jam. Bon appetit!
INGREDIENTS
RECIPE
• 1 ½ c u ps ra s pb e r r i e s , s t ra w b e r r i e s o r blackberries
In a small saucepan, cook down the berries on medium heat until they break down, about 5 minutes.
• 2 t b s p h o n e y • 2 t b s p c h i a s e e ds
Mash the fruit gently in the saucepan and remove from heat.
Add in honey (or other sweetener), stirring to combine.
Pour in chia seeds and stir gently to combine.
Let set for about 5 minutes to thicken.
Let cool and transfer to a glass container and refrigerate.
Note: This jam will thicken nicely, but it won’t be very sticky like store-bought preserves. If you choose to use a more watery fruit, or if you want a thicker jam, then add some of the white part, or pith, of a lemon peel. The peel has a lot of naturally occurring pectin, but too much of the lemon peel/zest might overpower the other flavors in your jam.

This savory bacon and cheddar loaf is a definite staple in my household. My boys and husband know that it is a special Sunday when they wake up to the delicious smells wafting through the kitchen and reaching into their bedrooms. I often serve this with slow cooked creamy scrambled eggs flecked with chives and a side of whatever ripe fruit I have on hand. Canteloupe and strawberries are especially perfect on the plate. This bread is so tender and dense with goodness it doesn’t need anything on it at all however a smear of salted butter never hurt anyone. This bread comes together fast and can be thrown together the night before for a slow rise overnight so that Sunday morning is a fairly quick final rise and into the oven for breakfast. Enjoy!

Buttery pecans add a mild, nutty crunch to these light-as-can-be pancakes. Paired with the deep, almost smoky flavour of a bourbon molasses butter, it’s like having pecan pie for brunch.

With no added sugar, this flavourful oatmeal is a great way to start the day! I do this in the microwave because I’m pressed for time + lazy, but this can easily be adapted for the stove top. Prepare all the ingredients in a mason jar minus the liquids, and you have a breakfast-to-go that you can bring with you to work! So easy, but delicious and nutritious!

INGREDIENTS
RECIPE
• Coo k i n g o i l
Preheat oil in a deep skillet over medium high heat.

Peel the plantains and slice them into thin pieces.
Fry the pieces until golden brown colour. Drain excess oil on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and serve.
Alternatively, you may bake them in the oven at 350°C for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
Note: • For a very sweet tasting fried plantain, use very ripe plantains. • For medium sweetness, use pale-yellow plantains that still feel firm. • For anunsweetened crunchy taste, use green plantains.

Continue to drizzle a very small amount at a time, whisking constantly. Once you’ve added a little over half of your milk, you’ll find that you have more of a thick sauce or batter, and you can start adding the milk in larger splashes, being sure to keep mixing. Once all of the milk is added, add the salt, garlic, nutmeg, and few grinds of black pepper, and bring the mixture to a lower simmer and cook it, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Assemble and bake: Add the sausage and bechamel to the bowl with the pasta and broccoli rabe. Stir in mozzarella and half of grated parmesan or pecorino until combined. Pour into a lasagna pan, deep 9×13-inch baking dish or 3-quart casserole dish and coat with remaining parmesan or pecorino. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the edges and craggy points are nicely bronzed. Eat warm. Reheat as needed.

Serve your dish warm and feel free to add more parmesan cheese on top.

Otherwise known as Fettuccine with White Clam Sauce, this recipe is quick and so easy.
INGREDIENTS
RECIPE
• 2 d o ze n l i t t l en e ck cla ms (I us e d c a n n e d c l a m s a n d s a ve t he jui ce )
Put the shallots in a small saucepan with the oil and sauté over medium-high heat until
• 1 t b s p c h o ppe d s ha llo t s o r ye llo w onion
translucent.
Add the garlic and sauté until lightly coloured.
• ½ c u p o l i v e o i l • 1 t s p c h o ppe d ga r li c
Add the parsley and hot pepper, stir three or four times, then add the wine. Allow the wine to boil
• 2 t b s p c h o ppe d p a r s le y
until it has evaporated by half, then turn off the heat. (The sauce may be prepared several hours
• ¼ t s p c h o ppe d d r i e d ho t re d p e p p e r
ahead of time up to this point.)
• ¼ c u p w h i t e w i n e • 1 t b s p b u t t e r
Measure out 2/3 cup of clam juices. If there is more, discard it. If there is not enough, add white
• 2 t b s p f re s h P a r me s a n che e s e
wine to make up the balance. Add the liquid to the sauce and boil until it is reduced by half.
• s a l t • fe t t u c c i n e (I li ke t o us e f re s h, but yo u can use dry)
Add the clams, turn them quickly in the hot sauce, and turn off the heat. Add the butter and cheese, mixing thoroughly. Taste and correct for salt. (No salt at all may be required, especially in the summer, whem clams seem to be saltier.)
Add 1½ tsp salt to 4 quarts rapidly boiling water, then drop in the pasta and drain as soon as it is tender but al dente, firm to the bite. (If you are using freshly made pasta, remember that it is done a few seconds after the water returns to a boil.)
The moment the pasta is drained, transfer it to a warm serving bowl, add the sauce (previously reheated if no longer hot), toss thoroughly but rapidly, and serve immediately. Additional grated cheese may be served on the side if desired.
Note: The sauce is also excellent with spaghetti or with garganelli.

This dish is a weekly staple in our house, it is a quick and healthy dinner that takes less than 15 minutes to prepare. Halibut is a very lean, mild and sweet-tasting white fish with a firm texture. The nice thing about this recipe is the versatility in using any light white fish you prefer.
INGREDIENTS
RECIPE

Preheat oven to 400°F.

Place halibut fillets (or another choice of white fish) on a parchment-lined baking sheet a few

• ½ t s p c a y e n n e p e p p e r (o p t i o n a l: s p i cy!)
equally and sprinkle with a little grated parmesan.
• 5 c l o v e s m i n c e d ga r li c • ¾ c u p g ra t e d Pa r me s a n che e s e
In a small bowl mix 4 tbsp of olive oil, cayenne pepper, paprika minced garlic and grated
• f re s h o r d r y pa r s le y fo r ga r n i s h
parmesan until a paste is formed. Spread the parmesan mixture evenly onto the halibut filets.
Place both baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 15 - 20 minutes (about 20 minutes per inch of fish thickness). Bake until halibut (or another choice of white fish) is cooked through and flaky. Optional: For a crispy coating on the fish, lightly coat a pan with a few drops of avocado oil and heat. Sear both sides.
Flake the rice with a fork, plate rice, fish and asparagus and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley if desired.

Fold the whites and the flour together. Add the chocolate mixture one third at a time. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for exactly 15 minutes. The cake will rise a bit, especially around the edges, but will still seem undercooked. As the cake cools it will sink in the centre.
Once the cake is cool, use your fingers to gently press the sides down so the cake is level. Alternatively, use a knife to level the cake. Cool the cake in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
Remove the cake from the pan by turning it upside down onto a cake board/plate. Leave the cake upside down and place back in the fridge to cool completely.

This recipe is from my Finnish cookbook as I was trying out some heritage baking. It is in between a pastry and a cake, and has the texture of a danish. Traditionally, it is to be served at the coffee table; however, it is ideal for dessert.
INGREDIENTS
RECIPE
C rus t :
In a bowl, mix the flour with the salt, baking powder and sugar. Cut in the butter until
• 3 c u ps w h i t e f lo ur
the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Stirring with a fork, add 1/3 cup of the cold milk.
• ½ t s p s a l t
The dough should cling together in a ball (add more milk if necessary).
• 1 t s p b a k i n g p o w d e r • ¼ c u p s u ga r
Roll the dough out on a lightly floured board into a rectangle about 10 inches wide and
• 1 c u p b u t t e r
20 inches long. Make slightly diagonal cuts about 3 inches long and about 1 inch apart
• 1 / 3 - 1 / 2 c up co ld mi lk
from the outside edges toward the center.
Fi lli ng :
Arrange the sliced apples in layers neatly down the centre of the dough, dusting each
• 6 l a r ge coo ki n g a p p le s , p e e le d , co re d , a n d s l i c e d thi n ly cro s s w i s e
layer with some of the cinnamon and sugar.
• 3 t e a s poo n s ci n n a mo n
Fold the cut pieces of dough across the filling, alternating from side to side, so the strip
• 1 - 1 ½ c u p s uga r
has a “braided” look. Seal the ends so the filling does not run out.
C o ffee G la ze:
Place the filled strip on a lightly greased baking sheet and brush the top with milk.
• 2 c u p co n fe ct i o n e r ’s s uga r
Bake in a moderately hot oven (375°F) for about 45 minutes or until the strip is golden
• 2 - 3 t b s p h o t s t ro n g co f fe e
brown and the apples are tender.
Cool and frost with Coffee Glaze (below).
Coffee Glaze: Sift confectioners’ sugar and slowly stir in the hot strong coffee to make a smooth thin glaze.

I bake a lot with my kids and I especially enjoy it because the opportunity to review fractions naturally presents itself every time we bake. This is a family favorite and our own version of the classic Chocolate Chip Cookie. You can store these in an airtight container for a few days, but they will likely be gone before they get packed away.

to temper the egg yolks. The eggs need to be tempered or they will form lumps when heated. Continue to whisk slowly until the mixture is an even colour and consistency, then whisk the egg-yolk mixture back into the remaining milk mixture. Return the pan to the stovetop over medium heat and continue cooking the mixture, stirring often, until it reaches 75°C, 5 to 10 minutes more. Transfer the base into a large heat proof bowl to sit in the prepared ice bath and let cool for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. After cooling the base in the ice bath, add the vanilla and peppermint extracts and stir to combine. Pour the ice cream base through a wire-mesh strainer into a storage container and place in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours, or until completely cool. For best results make the base the night before.
Now you’re ready to make ice cream! Transfer the cooled base to an ice cream maker, add the cookie powder and churn it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Or, if you want, you can keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days before churning. Break the remaining cookies into quarters. Transfer the ice cream to a storage container, folding in the cookie pieces as you do. Serve immediately or harden in your freezer for 8 to 12 hours for a more scoopable ice cream.
Recipe is adapted from Walt’s Dream Pure Sweet Ice Cream base by Ample Hills Creamery.
