SEA SALT

In their new book Sea Salt: Recipes from the West Coast
Galley, veteran yacht racer Lorna Malone and her two daughters, chef-in-training Hilary Malone and writer Alison Malone Eathorne, invite readers to set sail on a culinary adventure.
The Malone family, who hail from Nanaimo, have been exploring the coast together aboard their sailboat, Aeriel, for more than 20 years. In their new release from Harbour Publishing, they share their favourite recipes alongside the best spots they've found to drop anchor and gather ingredients on their frequent trips around Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands. They've drizzled barbecued Brie bought from Hilary's Cheese in Cowichan Bay with thyme-infused honey and sprinkled Sea Salt and Caramel Brownies with rock salt from Vancouver Island Salt Co.
All recipes can - and have - been made out on the water in the galley kitchen of a sailboat. But you don't need to know a spinnaker from a mainsail to join in their voyage of discovery.
While these recipes are best served with a sea breeze, they can also be enjoyed on dry land - be it campfire cookout, backyard barbecue or poolside brunch.
