INSIDE SCOOP

EASY desserts Sundae best

With a scoop of ice cream, ripe seasonal fruit and a splash of wine or liqueur, you can whip up an impressive dessert in a flash. Here are three ideas for adults-only sundaes:

Vanilla ice cream + Blueberries + Crème de cassis

Lighten up TRENDSPOTTING

Tired of bracingly bitter IPAs? Puckering sours not your thing? Then you’re in luck. Ontario craft brewers are finally focusing their energy and creativity on easy-drinking lagers. Check out some new additions to the beer shelf including the crisp, refreshing Refined Fool Ontario Craft Lager (LCBO 15880, 473 mL, $2.95) from Sarnia or the citrusy, juniper-scented Flying Monkeys Wonderstar Botanical Lager (LCBO 574400, 473 mL, $3.35) from Barrie.

KITCHEN HACK

Shreds up If you have a stand mixer, then you’ve got a sous chef to help you pull chicken in a flash. Remove skin and bones, tear into large pieces, place warm in the bowl with the paddle attach- ment. In under a minute you’ll have shredded meat for salads, sandwiches or tacos. This technique also makes quick work of canned tuna or salmon when you need larger quanti- ties for sandwich fillings.

Lemon sorbet + Sliced strawberries + Moscato
