The Lobster Series (Part 2): How to Cook a Lobster
This is part of a series on how to buy, cook, eat and make stock from lobster. Yesterday’s piece focused on how to purchase lobster and how to tell the gender; today we talk about the simple task of cooking it. This article assumes knowledge from the previous (the most important part being that we [...]Collected in well preserved Mar 26, 2012 -
WellPreserved Goes Moose Hunting – Day 4 – Video Diary of Dogging Through the Woods
Today`s post will be unlike almost anything we`ve ever posted – let us know if you like this format or prefer words. I decided to shoot a few short videos which may give you a better perspective of what our forests are like and what it`s like to hunt in Ontario. The audio walks you [...]Collected in well preserved Nov 1, 2011 -
WellPreserved Goes Moose Hunting – Day 2 – Football, Technology and an Early Sleep
Sunday started late for me. Schaeffer continued his morning tradition by waking up everyone but me (he seems to have learned that trying to wake me is a fruitless task so he ignores me in the morning and tries to wake everyone else). Since the hunt doesn`t begin until tomorrow, many of us took our [...]Collected in well preserved Oct 30, 2011 -
WellPreserved Goes Moose Hunting – Day 1 – Running in Quicksand
I am certain there`s a million better writers who have lamented about the reasons why time flies when you need it to crawl and why it dithers when you need to find the accelerator but you`re reading this and you`re stuck with me. And I fought time as hard as I could today. Needless to [...]Collected in well preserved Oct 29, 2011 -

Ocean Wise SeaFoodie Contest Comes to a Close
I’m humbled to announce that I have been named ‘Ocean Wise SeaFoodie.’ I hope that the ultimate winner is Ocean Wise and their message of sustainability and our oceans. Here was our final video: There is a certain irony that I’ve spent the last two days lying on the couch and my stomach turns at [...]Collected in well preserved Apr 26, 2011 -
Fish Farming – A great Example of Doing it Right (Kolapore Springs)
It was our friends at Hooked which turned me on to this little video which we shared with out Facebook Group but realized that the rest of you may find it just as powerful. Kolapore Springs is an example of a sustainable fish farm doing things right. By watching the two-minute video below you`ll learn [...]Collected in well preserved Apr 17, 2011 -

My Biggest Argument for Local food is Not Logical…
It`s emotional. I really considered hitting `POST`there (the temptation to beat our shortest post ever was tough to resist) . I`m not sure I can add a lot to the statement above but allow me a chance to try.Collected in well preserved Mar 16, 2011 -
Another UK Cooking Show Review: Nigel Slater’s Simple Suppers
Nigel Slater is proud to be a cook – he clearly states he is no chef. This appears to be his ultimate branding and is the consistent offering in his TV shows, cookbooks and food novels. Even the title of his autobiography avoids much pretense and does not sound like the proclamations of a Chef: [...]Collected in well preserved Dec 3, 2010 -
The best TV show I`ve ever seen about local food…
…isn`t about local food. But it really has taught me a massive amount about local food. The show is sort of a documentary, part reality (in truly the best sense) and part educational. I haven`t seen the entire thing but I can`t reccomend it highly enough.Collected in well preserved Nov 30, 2010 -
74 Days of decomposting in 1.5 minutes (time lapse)
If you`ve been around these parts for a while, you`ll know I`m a sucker for timelapse photography, especially when it is related to food. There`s not much more to say about the following video (click on it to go to the source) that shows a bowl of fruit and vegetables to go from fresh to [...]Collected in well preserved Oct 22, 2010 -
I am a Craft….Parody?
I have shared the following video several times – it still brings shivers to me when I watch it: “I am a Craft Brewer” was commissioned by Greg Kock of Stone Brewery (San Diego, California). He made it as his intro for a keynote speech at the American Craft Brewer’s Association. He came onto stage [...]Collected in well preserved Oct 12, 2010 -

We`re staying on the wine kick for another 2 or 3 days and will move back to regular programming. Not a lot to say today – thought we`d share some of the neates commercials we`ve found that celebrate wine.Collected in well preserved Sep 2, 2010 -
Anthony Bourdain Coming to Toronto
I received an excited Facebook message from friends announcing that Anthony Bourdain was coming to Toronto and that they were planning to go. I hadn’t seen anything about it so I thought I’d share (even with the risk that I may have been the only one not knowing).Collected in well preserved Aug 12, 2010 -
Dogfish Head Fort
When I was a child a fort was something you built before hiding in – if you were lucky you got to sleep in it overnight. I later learned the word had other meanings on other languages – FORTE in music is to play loud and bold and FORTE in French means STRENGTH or STRONG.Collected in well preserved Aug 2, 2010
