Eating from my Garden – Boletus edulis

When good food gets scarce, there’s nothing better than turning inside and see what there is around us: there’s nothing better than eating from my garden!

Just as the last golden rays of the sun crept through the pine forest down here in Noordhoek, South Africa, I found the first Boletus edulis 2010 today! Autumn is definitely here… and like the squirrels I like to collect things for winter – be it grains, mushrooms or wood for the fireplace.

One of the most exhilarating feelings is to have the privilege of eating  something directly from my garden or the surrounding woods and mountains, something I discovered, collected carefully, brought home with sandy hands, cleaned, prepared in a little butter, salt, freshly ground pepper and juice from lemons in my garden…. and ate! Slowly. . . getting the full taste and enjoying the uniqueness of the moment… like Nature’s caress.

And as everything is a matter of shape – here we have some 30 cm … it’s what I call a sumptious meal!
