well, there ain't nothing better than a good 'shroom (don't get the wrong idea, here, guys).
i was quite pleased to recently be given a bag of locally hunted chanterelles.
what to do with 'em; what to do???
well, i had some wheat dough (*recipe another time) that was begging to be used, so, PIZZA was the natural choice...
used a base/sauce of pureed steamed sweet potato & fresh tomato. added fresh mozzarella, the 'shrooms, of course (which i sauteed first in olive oil with garlic and a little salt & pepper), fresh basil (from the garden, bien sur), and a hearty sprinkling of romano. super hot oven on my pizza stone for something like 15 minutes...et ...voila!
Sounds yummy! I live vicariously through you right now, as my garden has given up in the Florida heat. I have to be content planning my Fall/Winter garden (ha ha!). Looking forward to seeing more on your blog! Lots of love from us all!

thanks, miss melissa.
ReplyDeleteyes, i just yanked all my spinach and lettuces . . . we've had several dangerously hot days with the heat index nearing 120 degrees (yikes!), and those poor puppies bolted some time ago . . .
i can only imagine what florida must feel like (insert sad-face) . . .
hang in there
much love,
