By Patrick Hearn, as told to Devon ScoblePatrick Hearn and Kent Rumpel live in Saskatoon's Riversdale neighbourhood and co-own the Park Cafe and Diner, which has been credited with revitalizing the once-rundown area. One of their most popular weekend dishes is panfried pickerel, something Patrick remembers eating on fishing trips with his dad in northwestern Ontario. While it was Kent who tweaked and perfected the recipe for the diner's customers, the dish is still made in Patrick's grandmother's cast-iron pan.Between the ages of seven and 17, I lived in a small mining town in northwestern Ontario. My mum had taken a millwright maintenance course for mechanical at the mine; she was one of the first women in Canada to be a millwright maintenance mechanic - all while raising seven children! So my dad did all the cooking throughout the week, then on weekends, my mum would do all the baking and all the stuff for our lunches.My mum was pretty creative as a cook, often using cheaper cuts of meat to make stuff go farther. She has an English background, so we'd have pigs in a blanket, Swiss steak and steak-and-kidney pies. My dad was a pretty good cook, too, but he was more of a meatloaf and mushroom gravy or spaghetti and sauce kind of guy. He learned what he knew from his mother, my Grandma Hearn, who was also an excellent cook.My dad made panfried pickerel for us kids as a shore lunch when we were fishing. He'd heat up potatoes left over from last night's dinner and fry up a few eggs. He'd catch fresh pickerel from the lake, clean it lakeside, then panfry it with the eggs and potatoes for a delicious lunch.The fried pickerel recipe we use at the Park Cafe is actually Kent's. It's something we'd done one weekend that people really enjoyed. The fish is seasoned and floured on both sides, then panfried in my Grandma Hearn's cast-iron pan and served with eggs, hash browns and toast. This cast-iron frying pan is something we've used in countless ways my whole life. I've even turned it into a running joke over the years: "101 uses for Grandma's frying pan!" Through the week, the panfried pickerel isn't a big seller, but on Sundays, it just goes.Growing up, we ate meals accompanied by lots of gravies and sauces and pastas - comfort food, I would call it. And home-cooked comfort food is what the Park Cafe is about. It kept Grandma Hearn alive until 92, so hopefully by eating the way she did, I'm going to be around for a long time!Photo courtesy of Getty Images.

Mackerel is a recent discovery for me. I never knew how to cook it but I learned quickly once I discovered how cheap it is and how good it is for you! This is a really simple way to cook it.

Baked garlic is sweet and very yummy, as well as being very spreadable. Serve as an appetizer with a good crusty bread or with crackers. People can peel a piece of garlic off of the bulb and squeeze the soft, warm garlic our of its shell.

The pickerel is a freshwater fish belonging to the same family as pike and muskellunge (muskie/musky). This simple recipe is from the New England chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.

This is one of my favorite ways of cooking chicken in the oven, and, it's the only use I have for granulated garlic. I think it's worth while to keep it in my spice cupboard though, because this dish is a winner. The tartness of the lemon, along with the garlic flavor, and just a touch of heat from the blacken, really kick up, what could turn out to be just another baked chicken meal. Just be careful not to use too much blacken, because the flavors will it will take over the dish. Butt Kickin' Blacken contains neither salt nor sugar. If you use a different seasoning blend, you'll probably have to adjust for their high salt content.Butt Kickin' Blacken is available at: http://www.capnrons.com/index.html?ID=RZ For additional Instructional pictures, please visit: http://www.capnrons.com/R_M_Lemon_Garlic_Chicken.html?ID=RZ
