<\/strong>According to the calendar, summer officially starts in a week \u2013 on June 21. However, I believe that in sun-starved Canada summer starts the moment we see leaves on trees, and that\u2019s why we\u2019ve been enjoying it for more than a month.<\/p>\n

I suspect that many of you have fired up your barbecues long ago and by now you\u2019ve probably cooked your fair share of burgers and steaks. So I thought you\u2019d appreciate a fun, new idea for a simple and delicious recipe on the barbecue: Japanese-style Steak Sandwich with Canadian Havarti.<\/p>\n

This steak sandwich recipe features a mouth-watering, exotic blend of grade AA strip loins, fresh ginger, teriyaki\"\"<\/a> sauce and Canadian Havarti. I suggest that you pair this fun dish with wine that is just as exciting and flavourful.<\/p>\n

If yo\"\"<\/a>u like to enjoy white wine with your summer meals, I recommend a light- to medium-bodied riesling, such as a dry Cave Spring Riesling<\/strong><\/a>. Its refreshing and citrusy flavours will match the sweetness of the dish wonderfully.<\/p>\n

For those who prefer red, I suggest a medium-bodied primitivo or zinfandel, such as a fruity and silky-smooth Coppi Peucetico Primitivo<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s to the official start of summer!<\/p>\n

Japanese-Style Steak Sandwich<\/strong> <\/a><\/p>\n

Serves 6<\/strong><\/p>\n

6 AA Canadian strip loin grilling steaks
\n2 tbsp (30 ml) low-sodium soy sauce
\n1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh ginger, chopped
\nFreshly ground pepper, to taste<\/p>\n

12 slices crusty bread or
\n6 thin whole-wheat burger buns<\/p>\n

Toppings<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

1\/3 cup (80 ml) low sodium teriyaki sauce
\n1\/3 cup (80 ml) green onions, chopped
\n6 slices Canadian Havarti<\/p>\n

Preheat grill to medium heat or oven to 425\u00b0F (220\u00b0C).<\/p>\n

In a bowl, coat steaks with low-sodium soy sauce and ginger. Season to taste.<\/p>\n

Place on grill or on a parchment-covered baking sheet on centre rack of oven. Cook steaks 12 to 15 minutes, turning them over just once.*<\/p>\n

Heat buns and spread with teriyaki sauce.<\/p>\n

Cut steaks into thin slices and fill buns. Add green onions and Havarti. Let melt, then serve.<\/p>\n

*To make sure your meat is cooked properly, it is highly recommended to use a food thermometer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
