ORIGINAL: LaTigresse I was just sitting here at my desk savouring a bowl of fresh strawberries, marveling over how delish they are, musing over the fact they are one of my favourite seasonal foods. This got me thinking what are my other favourites. Foods that I only get for a short period of time, at least when they actually taste good, like they should. Fresh berries.....just yummmmm!! Morels......is there anything better?? Fresh peaches, picked from my orchard trees. All warm and juicy. So sexy. Sweet corn.........if you don't live in a rural area where you can eat it the same day it is picked, you really have no clue what it tastes like. Fresh picked tomatoes......they taste NOTHING like tomatoes from the grocer. Fresh walleye......the Queen of a fish fry. What are your favourites? Agreed but you can have my morels, more for you! I love all the fresh herbs, I eat them in everything. Yum. Basil, dill, cilantro, parlsey, thyme, chives, mmmm. We used to go to a cottage at the Ontario Quebec border, divided by the Ottawa River, we could swim across when we got older. Going the other way into the woods was a fresh water spring that was insane how good that water tasted. Raspberries all over the place and as many mosquitos. Eat the fresh berries, try to get some o fthem into the pail and get eaten alive. I think the smell of the barbie fired up is a fantastic smell. Marshmallows on a stick. Oven-dried tomatoes from my garden marinated in olive oil with chunks of garlic, cayenne peppers, rosemary from the garden, kalamata olives, salt pepper, stick in fridge a few days, make linguini add oily yummy sauce, through the roof!
