Easy candied orange peel

December 23, 2020 By KrisNeely

candied orange peel coated in fine sugar

When December rolls around, you can count on me to first start thinking of what holiday treats I’ll be creating. Shortbread is a given, both sweet and savory. Fruitcake (yes!). Something chocolate, whether that’s a dark flourless cookie or almond roca bars, or – in rare years – chocolate fudge. And candied orange peel. It’s…

Portobello Mushroom Tacos

May 4, 2014 By KrisNeely

It’s no secret I’m having a love-in with tacos lately. If I’m not making them for dinner, I’m dreaming about making a bee line for the local taqueria a few blocks away. Dee-lish. So when I saw Cinco de Mayo falls on a Monday this year, I thought hmmmm…. how about vegetarian tacos (portobello mushroom…

Chewy Chocolate Coconut Macaroons {Gluten Free, Grain Free}

April 25, 2014 By KrisNeely

I’ve made 4 different batches of coconut macaroons in the past 3 weeks. April has been a whirlwind of coconut and eggs for me. Luckily, I’ve had a lot of tasters to help me share the eating part. (Now if only my tasters could help with my chocolate drizzle technique… I’m sure they could, if…

Apple Cheddar Arugula Salad

March 23, 2014 By KrisNeely

I’ve been craving spa-like cuisine this week. We’re finally into spring, yes, but I think it has more to do with indulging a little too much lately with these little pieces of chocolate evil. I’m talking about Kirkland’s milk chocolate covered almonds, our preferred after-dinner nibble. Sometimes I think the only reason I pay my…

Hello there, and welcome to our (mostly) redesigned site. It’s a refreshing, clean look that we love, plus it looks a lot better on mobile devices. A lot better. (I’m even starting to modify a little code, here and there, all the while praying I don’t blow up the whole site as I tinker away….

Chard and White Bean Ragout

February 28, 2014 By KrisNeely

Baby, it’s cold outside. 2014 has been a very cold winter, and I keep hearing we — the collective we in North America — can blame the polar vortex. That sounds nasty, doesn’t it? Like an evil force bent on world, or at least continental, domination. Not even Vancouverites can escape the polar vortex, although its…

Chocolate Truffles for Your Valentine

February 15, 2014 By KrisNeely

Today is Valentine’s Day +1. But it’s not too late to make your valentine smile. It’s a simple equation: good quality chocolate + heavy cream (+ optional flavorings) = heavenly chocolate truffles. Yum. It’s true, a lot of chocolate and candy making is tricky. I’m quite happy to leave the tough stuff to the pros…

About Us

We’re Eve and Kris, an aunt and a niece. We love food. And while we have a lot in common in our approach, we also have our differences. So why not hash it out in a blog? Ant and Anise is a conversation about food in our lives, past and present. We like real food that doesn't take hours to prepare, but has something unexpected about it. It helps if it's pretty, too.
