Author and recipe developer DIALA CANELO runs the food and travel blog Diala’s Kitchen, where she posts dishes influenced by her travels all over the world. She was born and raised in the Dominican Republic by the ocean, eventually relocating to Canada where she developed a passion for baking and cooking. She earned a Grand Diploma in pastry and bread making from Le Cordon Bleu in Mexico City before graduating. She has had a variety of travel opportunities that have allowed her to sample cuisine from many other nations and exhibit her stunning photographs. The Feed Feed, Flare magazine, and Food52 have all highlighted Diala. She, her partner, Warren, and their children, Isabella and Gabriela, reside near Toronto, Canada.
Diala Canelo is constantly travelling and exploring her favourite destinations, including Barcelona, Paris, Melbourne, Mexico City, Florence, and Santo Domingo, where she grew up by the ocean. These cities provide inspiration for her scrumptious and healthful cuisine. Diana’s recipes embrace the beauty of simply prepared, vegetable-forward, pescatarian-friendly cooking and are inspired by regional flavours, fresh ingredients, and a passion for healthful meals produced from scratch. She also runs a page called Diala Kitchen, which is a collection of vibrant and flavorful recipes drawn from both domestic and international travel, as well as exquisite food and photos from elsewhere.
Foodies will want to prepare these recipes and share them with their loved ones. With more than 100 recipes, including salmon tacos with chipotle crema, blackened fish with creamy yucca fries, wild mushrooms over creamy polenta with mascarpone, coconut flan, salted caramel and vanilla pots de crème, and caramelised banana and cinnamon loaf, Diala will transport you to every corner of the globe while energising your kitchen with vibrant flavours. She founded Diala’s Kitchen, a website where she presents lovely plant-forward, pescatarian recipes that are influenced by her travels and Dominican culture. She updates her dialaskitchen Instagram feed, which has 150,000 followers, with pictures of food, travel, selfies, and family and friends. It means supporting local communities, according to Diala Canelo, the food and travel blogger behind Diala’s Kitchen and the author of Diala’s Kitchen: Plant-Forward and Pescatarian Recipes Inspired by Home and Travel (which was shortlisted for the 2021 Taste of Canada Awards’ General Cookbook category). The tastemaker, who is well-known for whipping up colourful, delectable dishes and sharing her creations on Instagram, is delighted to support small companies because they are in need of it right now.
The pandemic-born Turkish bakery offers pantry foods that round out the typical Turkish morning table, in addition to a selection of teatime sweets and traditional pastries like tartlets and profiteroles. To be a healthy individual, Diala begins each day with a cup of home-brewed coffee before going to Jimmie Simpson Park for a morning yoga session there. Her opinions on food in general have been completely altered by living in numerous places. She is from a society that values agriculture, farmers, and sustainability. There is a lot of significance to sharing meals since they are a way that they express their love. Diala learned how traditions are carried down via families, especially when it comes to cuisine, and how important certain ingredients are as the foundation of each meal after moving to Mexico City. She has been given the opportunity to experience Toronto’s incredibly diverse and lively food culture as a result of her residence there.
