SaskMade Marketplace would like to welcome the esteemed Chef Simon of Simon's Fine Foods in Saskatoon for a new post series here on our blog. Sunday dinners have become a rare and treasured time for families to make time for each other, make meals to remember, and make memories to last a lifetime. Chef Simon will be bringing you inspiration and instruction for your own Sunday meal, using local Saskatchewan ingredients and European inspiration.
One of my favourite products in summer is a great Saskatchewan resource, the amazing Chanterelle! Chanterelles have a very short season so this is the time to get your fix of these delicious yellow fungi. Keep them in the fridge in a brown paper bag for up to two weeks and just before you want to use them fill a bowl with cold water, trim the stem and dunk the mushrooms under a few times to get rid of any grit/leaf material then use straight away. The combination of wild mushrooms and lamb is perfect for the cooler summer evenings.
