Fall is quickly approaching and this just happens to be my favorite time of the year. I've always said that everyone looks great in the Fall. But this is not why Fall is my favorite time of the year. Its because of the foods that all of a sudden become available to us. The game, the squash, and the vegetables, are just so amazing. The flavours of double smoked bacon, pearl onions and wild mushrooms are mouth watering. The smell of roasting butternut squash, and the aromas of Cinnamon and maple just sets the mood for romance.
Speaking of mushrooms, my girlfriend and I with a friend of ours were hiking around in the forest where I grew up as a child, and I stumbled upon a gold mine of mushrooms. I found a patch of Chantrelles! The excitement that came over me was as a little child getting a lolly pop, and a big one at that. I took my hat off and filled it. Now, today, I am finding myself creating a dish with these wonderful little specimens.
Now that I mentioned the Foods, Fungus, and the Farmers vegetables, I should mention the Wild Game Festival that I am promoting through Kenson Catering ( www.kensoncatering.ca ), and featuring Rodrigues Winery award wining wines. Focusing on Newfoundland grown and made products, Kenson Catering is preparing a Fall Game Festival. Many of the dishes are going to be braised, and roasted.
You truly do not want to miss out on this. Going from October 14th to November 15th.
