The 36 annual Taste of the Town was held Sunday, September 10, 2017. I have been participating since 1981 when the event began. This year I prepared two tasting dishes. I offered a vegan style Terrine of Mushroom in an Aspic. Lots of great mushrooms from The Berry Man are presented in an agar-agar bound vegetable broth. The other dish is a mousse of local smoked salmon with a topping of tobiko caviar. We served tastes to over 1,000 guests at this grand event.

Put on your apron, grab your whisk, fire up the oven and get on your bib apron. I'll provide the recipes, and the rest is up to you. See you in the kitchen.
