Hello Fellow Sailors, Another gastronomic feast was enjoyed Saturday as sailing club members escaped their winter-bound cabins and gathered for a peasant-food themed meeting and cook-off. It was apparent from the quality and variety of the offerings that few had to dig too far back to find a peasant heritage recipe and few of the eager taste-testers seemed unfamiliar with the fare… perhaps even in this time of continuous TV cooking shows, reality kitchen shows, and constant exposure to the magnificent creations of master chefs; the traditional recipes of preceding generations still have major appeal and a place in our homes…Or maybe it’s a sailor thing? Eighteen dishes were offered for sharing with the group… There were four in the “starter” category…Larry’s Cheese Tray, Gail’s ‘Poor Man’s Soup’, Paul & Debbie’s Leek/Potato soup, and Sonja’s Fresh-Baked Bread. Eleven main course dishes competed for the appetites of the discerning judges (aka ‘starving sailors’). Richard offered a Cassoulet and Marinated Vegetables, a Polenta Lasagna came from Dan & Judy and Jen & Pat presented a Sausage and Cabbage Casserole. Marnie displayed Salmon a la King in a hollowed bread bowl, Randi went to Thailand for her Green Curry and Riet evoked Scandinavia with her Boeren Kool dish. Sue pleased the crowd with her Mulligan Casserole and Marjorie came up from down-under with her Australian Shepherd’s Pie. Dianne and John Main completed the main courses with Dianne’s Beef Stew and John’s Manatoulin Venison. To complete the feast we had three fine desserts. Marnie’s Queen Pudding, Paul & Roxanne’s Bread Pudding and Rum Sauce, and Larry’s Fruit Cake competed to fulfill the hungers, passions and desires of everyone present. And the winners were… each and every member who participated and enjoyed. Special mention goes to: Larry, Dan, and Paul & Roxanne for third-places in the Starter, Main, and Dessert categories respectively. Gail, Sue, and Larry for second place in each of the three categories. Debbie, Richard, and Marnie for getting the most votes for Starters, Main Course, and Dessert. Thanks to Jamie for outlining this year’s racing program and to Judy for her selection of prizes for the winning cooks. Another Great!!! SSC meeting… don’t miss out on the next one!
