MULLED WINE

If you’ve never made mulled wine before, this is a perfect starting point. We’re building a deeply spiced syrup first—this step keeps the alcohol from evaporating and ensures every glass is rich, warming, and packed with flavour. With citrus, vanilla, bay, and a few well-chosen spices, this version is comforting without being overly sweet or cloying.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH CRÈME D’ÉCHALOTES

This recipe is all about nailing the classic sauce à la minute, a reduction of white wine, shallots, and tarragon that’s finished with cream and a touch of butter.
