The rains gifted us with chanterelle mushrooms this week.  On of our favorite farms, Tutti's was displaying these golden beauties!  We changed our menu for this evening from spinach and goat cheese pizza, to chanterelle, radicchio and pancetta pizza.  This one of our very favorites, and the link is for the recipe.

These radishes were the first delight we noticed.  They look bright and inviting.  

This is cilantro we picked up for our Chinese style meal this week.

The range of green colors on this cabbage is a lesson in the art of texture,

Last but no least are snow pea leaves tendrils.  These are a delicacy in Chinese cuisine.  We sauteed them in olive oil.  They taste like snow peas and are delicious as well as nutritious.

 

Wishing you all a delightful Saturday and of course, lots of Saturday Smiles.

Now I'm hungry.  Might have to settle for the local pizzeria's white pizza with spinach and mushrooms instead.

I love snow pea tendrils, and use them often when I make Chinese Noodle Soup.  Tomorrow is the day for that.

Ron and Alexandra- you both could hold classes at the farmer's market for novices (like me) who would love to buy some of these but have no idea how to cook them!!!

I can almost smell the fresh cilantro. I love cooking with that and making fresh salads and salsa.

The pizza menu seems limitless this evening. We enjoyed 8 pies with several friends tonight Alexandra although none as exotic as this, pies that is.

Although I love mushroom soup, I have never been a fan of mushrooms.  But hey, make sure there is cilantro in the house and grab me the salt shaker for those radishes.  Used to love early summer when we pulled the radishes out of the garden soil.  So yummy.

I need to learn to like mushrooms, as I know they are such a healthy treat.  I hope that your weekend is going well.

Endre Barath, Jr. I never forget about porcinis.  I used to be able to get them fresh at the Sonoma Market.  We would load up then grill them like the Italians do.  One year in Tuscany, we had an all porcini dinner.  Every course had porcini made differently...with a Chianti that was ambrosial.  A

Endre Barath, Jr. I prefer the dry porcini mushrooms, they have so much more flavor in my humble chefness opinion.  I soak them and add the liquid to risotto or a pasta sauce.  A
