Mushroom season!!

So it's mushroom season in the NW of Cameroon, all I can say is Hallelujah! Everything is so seasonal here (mangos, advocado, oranges, etc.) so when they come around once a year, you really appreciate them. Look at this beauty I just got at the market, I'm making spaghetti Bolognese on Saturday so it will be perfect! Right now I'm trying to work out how to preserve some of them; drying, canning? If anyone has any experience let me know...

Work on the new farm land is going great. On Saturday all of the older kids were out there clearing the spear grass, they are such hard workers! A farming co-op has been volunteering most mornings, tilling the ground. Friday and Saturday they will be planting seed, very exciting!

Looking good! Scroll down two blogs and see the difference already.

You can dry mushroom. Slice then on 5 milimeters slices, put them on something like net or news papers (but net is better) and dry them in shadow. (Potrebuju vzdusne miesto v tieni.) When they are dry, put them in glas jar with good cover lid. (Aby sa tam nedostal vzduch) And if you want cook them just wash them in water.
