By default, January is usually the month that best suits slurping
up soup. Short days, long dark nights;
cold winds, and freezing flurries. Well,
usually.
So far, this month has come in rather like a lamb, wouldn’t
you say? This week’s above normal mild
temperatures had me tossing aside my new super puffy and super cozy parka, in
favour of my delightfully bright green spring jacket. It certainly feels like a treat, but we all
know that the worst is yet to come, as mother nature always seem to pack a punch
when we least expect it. Or at least it’s
hopeful that she will, lest our environment be suffering so much that the old
gal can’t even deliver on one or two heavy dumpings of the white stuff.
Okay, enough with my un-certifiable meteorological ramblings;
let’s talk food. Raw food. Yes, this comfortable weather has had me
thinking more room temperature, less hot and steamy when it comes to recipes. So I decided to work on a tried and true
comfort food, but make it raw; still retaining the depth and warmth in
seasoning expected from the country classic, but lighter.
