We had the pleasure of working with the Saskatchewan Pulse Growers during International Year of the Pulse (2016) to help promote pulses within the province of Saskatchewan. It was a busy year planning and executing 27 events across the province. Highlights included exhibiting at several tradeshows, delivering cooking demonstrations and nutrition talks, judging at the Chef Series at Taste Saskatchewan, showcasing pulse plants at GardenScapes and handing out thousands of brochures and gingersnap cookies!

The weather cooperated with our breakfast and cooking demo at the Saskatoon Farmer's Market. Chef Jeni educated and entertained food writers from across the US, Mexico and even China with information about local ingredients including - of course- the star of the show canola oil!

Coookbook author, chef and culinary educator - George Geary joined us at the CanolaInfo.org exhibit portion of the International Association of Culinary Professionals in Los Angeles, CA. George developed a flavoured popcorn recipewhich we had designed, printed and attached to bags of popcorn for our giveaway. 

We love the International Association of Culinary Professionals conference. This year we organized conference sponsorship for CanolaInfo.org and arranged to feature recipes and spokesperson Nathan Fong at Luncheon. Nathan developed several recipes for CanolaInfo including the Asian Orange Soy Marinated Salmon we featured at the event.
