Just completed our first day of Eating Local which was less tricky than expected. Much heated debate around the house before we began got resolved by discovering that our local butcher, Waller’s at Mitcham’s Corner by the Victoria Bridge, does local rabbit, pigeon, venison and beef. So the omnivores here were converted to the idea of eating local as we usually have a meat free diet. I do most of the cooking so I get to choose what we eat and that does not include meat. But for Eating Local, I can make a few concessions. So this evening’s dinner was for some blade steak cooked all afternoon in a very low oven with plenty of vegetables and for the veggies, potato, onion and celariac baked with cheese. Followed by rhubarb from the allotment, first of the season. All very tasty.
