A BUSY TIME AHEAD

19-JULY-2013.

 

Tomorrow, i'm off to a friend's fruit farm to collect what's available. At least raspberriesand srawberries for vinegar and redcurrants for jelly and cordial.

Sunday we're off to Leon again(5 days of heavy thunderstorms) to get chanterelles and maybe if we're lucky some boletus aestivalis, one of my favourites.  So, chanterelle liqueur recipe coming up soon.

Talking of mushroom liqueurs., has anybody made liqueur with clitocybe odora (the blue-green one),or with marasmius oreades (the fairy ring champignon) ? I usually make up a couple of litres of each one around september and filtered and racked after 6 months and very tasty indeed.

By the way, i've just filered some of my sloe-gin and damson liqueur made with vodka-Great!

So tomorrow, some recipes
