Chestnuts aren’t just for Christmas, they’re a great addition to vegetarian dishes all year round. Here we using their nutty sweetness with our chestnut mushrooms in a hearty casserole, with red wine and fresh thyme.

The Crepe Shack by Mawa’s Kitchen, on the ice skating rink-side of the new D& E/Four Mountain Sports shop, was literally oozing visitors. When I stopped by, at least a dozen people were sardined into the space—befitting the "shack" moniker at just 295 square feet. A crew of five, including chef-owner Mawa McQueen herself, was busy building crepes still steaming from the hot griddles. McQueen says she served more than 600 crepes that day—no wonder the cooks were almost too worn out to tell me how it went when I returned a few days later.

The montaditos de salmón(citrus-cured salmon) makes your eyes dilate because you’ve never seen a presentation quite like this. A trio of baguette slices, black from squid ink, showcases a fennel pâté, pickled mustard seeds, fresh greens, and salmon — razor-thin and draped out like a delicate ribbon. “I want it to be very beautiful and memorable, so I’m passionate about the flavors on each plate,” he said. “Everything here is 100 percent housemade, and that is something that is really important to me.”

I’ll admit that separating the seeds from the vegetable’s stringy membrane can be messy. The seeds are sticky, the membrane in which they are embedded is sticky, and your hands will get sticky as you do the work. The solution? Pull the seeds out of the pumpkin’s cavity, put them in a large bowl of water, then swish them around. The strands of membrane are much easier to pull off in water. Remove any of the seeds’ residual stickiness by rinsing them once or twice. Now they’re good to go.

Perhaps best known for their crucial rule in a certain sugary-sweet pie, pecans are native to North American and were a staple food for many Native Americans–in fact, the word pecan comes from the word “pacane,” used by the Algonquin tribe to signify a nut that must be cracked by a stone. Commercial production of pecans in America began in the late 1800s, and New Orleans became a hub for this market. Pecans are chock-full of flavonoids, a specific type of antioxidant that may help prevent certain chronic diseases such as diabetes. They are also rich in magnesium, which has anti-inflammatory benefits, and are full of heart-healthy fats and fiber.

There are only a handful of chefs and restaurants in Paris that function this way, according to Omar. “Bertrand [Grébaut of nearby restaurant Septime] and Taku [Dersou of Dersou] are two more,” he says, “and coincidentally most of these are located in the onzième [11th arrondissement].” It’s a friendly, close-knit chef crew who are all a part of a community WhatsApp group. “We work with the same produce because we demand high quality and high standards, but at the end, what shows up on the plate is completely different.”

Chestnuts add a festive feel to this lentil stuffing, with a flavour nod to the East. Season carefully, as the tamari and miso both bring their own saltiness. Tahini is added for extra flavour and nutrients and to thicken the sauce; if it gets a little too thick, just let it down with a splash of water. The chestnut mixture and the kale can both be reheated if you’re speedy at the stove and they’re ready before the squash is cooked.
