We know there’s a lot of competition out there, even for food blogs written by couples, but we hope we’re bringing something interesting to the table. We named our blog Supper in Stereo because Hanne and me cooking together becomes a stereophonic mess of talking, arguing, pestering, yelling and finally, self-congratulating. It’s fun. I prep, Hanne organizes and orders me around, we cook, talk, eat, congratulate ourselves again and talk more. For those of you trying to find time for your spouse and family, cook together! Quality time can reap quality food if you work together towards a meal at the end of the day.

Hey Paul!
Great to hear from you. My Mom mentioned your catering company on the phone a week ago and said that I should look you up. You beat me to it!
I’m interested in hearing more about your business. We’re big fans of Indian food. The recipes are usually intensive, so I can’t imagine how you managed to serve 80. I’m impressed! When Hanne and I first moved to Montreal we used to cook with her brother and a friend. Every Monday for four or five months we cooked for an ever growing crowd of hungry friends and moochers. Lots of Mexican and Indian food. Our toughest night we cooked Indian for fifteen. We pulled it off, but the plates didn’t hit the table until after midnight.
It was a formative few months, cooking for appreciative friends and strangers. Not only did we learn our chops but it’s a big reason why we wanted to start up a blog. As friends moved (nobody stays in Montreal for more than three years, it seems) the big feasts ended, but we still cook with a small group of friends and by ourselves. SupperInStereo is now our way to share with family, friends and (again) an ever increasing number of strangers.
It would be great to hear how you pulled off that major feast. Also excited to hear/try some of your recipes.

Hi Carlo and Hanne,
I just copied down your recipe for Chipotle Shrimp to make this coming weekend. I have some really nice chicken stock frozen so I think it will be perfect. I would recommend your trying my recipe for Shrimp Creole. It’s one of my favorite recipes and is even better if you make the sauce the day before. The recipe calls for cooking the shrimp for 20 minutes in the sauce, but my friend Peggy, who is from Charleston, SC, swears that’s a mistake and only cooks hers as long as it take for the shrimp to be done – which is just minutes. That part is up to you. But I like this so much, I eat leftovers heated up for breakfast the next day. By the way, again on Peggy’s recommendation, I don’t devein the shrimp by cutting them down the back. Sometimes I try pulling the vein out of the front (of the headless shrimp) if it’s particularly large, and I can grab it, but most of the time I forget it and leave the vein in. The shrimp are so much prettier not split, and everything I have read says that deveining is just for aesthetic, not health, reasons.

Hullo Hanne and Carlo
I’m sad to tell you that i just finished eating a slice of Domino’s pizza, and it was disgusting! It also is 4:47 in the morning here and i have yet to go to bed. I was wondering if you could send me an email, with the Chai tea again, and if you could help me out Hanne?

Hiya, stumbled on your blog through a search for Edmonton food bloggers. I am a fairly regular food blogger and moved here to Edmonton from Liverpool, England. I was wondering if Edmonton had a food blogging community, you know, people who get together and discuss life, blogging, photography etc?
Would love to know what you guys think :-)
Cheers!

Hi, I’m looking for the Concord Grape Cake recipe that The Real Time Farms Blog referred to – as I have more Concord grapes than I know what to do with.

Just realized; last post here is 2008, post in Real Time Farms is 2010… so if you do find the recipe – GREAT… if not, no worries. Am searching to find different recipes to try.
