Questions / CommentsHello, I'm trying to reach Chef, aka Helena Kopelow. If this is you... hi Chef! My name is Scoty Mcray, I took your Artisanal Bread night course several years ago in Kerrisdale. Chef, I want you to know, of all my studies, of all the courses I have taken, cooking and otherwise, that bread class was the best. Thank you, Chef. These days, I make bread once or twice per week. I almost never follow an exact recipe. I start with 1.5cups of water and go from there. Every batch is different, most batches are wonderful, and I think of that bread class every time. Why am I now trying to send you this message? Well, when I was young, my favorite bread was one that my mother bought from some little old ladies once or twice per year. It was so good. Anyway, if you’re still reading, I just made two large loaves of bread that are better than the best bread I remember from my childhood. I added imitation saffron, milk, eggs, butter, raisins, and shredded coconut to regular bread ingredients, and the resultant two large loaves were the best bread I have ever made. Once again, thank you Chef. I just toasted a few slices, and my place now smells like home when I was a little boy. My mama would be impressed. That's all. I'm not sure if this message will reach you, so I will likely phone a food company that came up when I googled you, and leave a similar, albeit shorter, message to be passed along to you. That artisanal bread class was excellent. Keep on baking, scoty

Hello Chef Helena !!

I don't think I can EVER thank you enough for teaching me how to Bake & Cook !!

My 'Baking Powder' biscuits for 2 is a perfect size just for us. No waste, as we eat them later (or the next day) with Jams.

Your 'Boule' recipe makes perfect BUNS for a dinner for 4 (I top with Butter, Rosemary, and Salt ala Ree Drummond)

Kristie & I are great believers in LEFTOVERS (we call them "Best Overs") because flavors get better the next day.

I make a Beef Stew (using a Pot Roast) in my "Insta-Pot" - WITHOUT vegetables or potatoes. (reasons)

We might have stew 2 days in a row. (might)

IF NOT - we use the left over Potatoes for FISH CAKES or fried potatoes for breakfast

Then I make PIE CRUST (2 flour to 1 butter by weight) and make 4" pies and freeze them. (no Potato or vegetables)

If I make Indian Butter Chicken - I do the same thing - 4" pies and freeze them

OR I make a Pizza Dough for the leftover Butter Chicken (delicious)

Kristie made "Curried Chicken & Potato" - the leftovers are in ONE 4" pie (I just ate the other one for lunch)

And here's the kicker - If there is any leftover crust - we make a GALETTE with last year's Frozen Blueberries.

I make a "Manchester Tart" - Sweet pie crust, Raspberry jam spread on the bottom, Bird's custard filling and

shredded semi-sweet coconut on top. (cheap and delicious)

I also use the 'Bird's custard' for Boston Cream Pie (way easier than making their filling) Just add 1 Tbsp more.

I 'cheat' making Paella. FRY some onion, red or yellow pepper then short-grain rice in a saute pan add turmeric

and water. Cover for 15-16 minutes. Meanwhile cook bite size chicken thighs and set aside.

When the rice is almost ready, place 1/2 doz prawns in it, and add the chicken. (as Gordon Ramsay says "DONE")

Thank you again

Thank you for all your help with my recipe. Your spices are so perfect and so tasty. Without them I would be lost. I love the fact that they have NO MSG! I need to get more. So addictive!

I am in your ABC's of cooking class and I have to give a great big thanks to Chef Helena.  She has the best teaching skills and she is so friendly.  I will be taking her new classes this fall.  "Pork on a fork" sounds like fun and so does "Cooking on a dime"  I can't wait

Your spices that you you sell are the best quality and the most flavor.  They are by far the best value too.  Better prices they anything you can get in the stores.  Thank you Chef Helena.  I am a customer for life!!
