This Week at Foraged and Found Edibles 10/30


It is a light week at the markets. We are in the lull between the fall and winter flush. Soon there will be an abundance of hedgehogs, yellowfoot chanterelles, black trumpets, and truffles as the nights get chillier. Speaking of cold weather, the watercress has been really beautiful, and will be around until our patches get hit with a frost. Wild watercress tends to be much spicier and more flavorful than the limp bunches found in grocery stores. Try pairing the spicy leaves in a salad with sweet roasted beets and a hazelnut viniagrette.

We have this weekend -

Chanterelles
Hedgehogs - a small amount

  1. I just found your blog through Fat of the Land, and it only took reading a whole 3 posts for me to decide that I HAD to buy your calendar for holiday gifts this year. Your blog and calendar are both absolutely lovely!
