The rules for this competition were to serve a course of a period feast entirely onsite using preselected ingredients provided by Annora Hall, the competition coordinator. The ingredients provided: Swede (rutabaga), Leek, Kale, Barley and a Soft Farmers Cheese.
I am known for my root veggies so I took the rutabaga, greens and leeks and stewed them over the fire using a special blend of spices. The barley I cooked with apples stewed over the fire. The farmers cheese was used with some homemade bread cooked in a dutch oven over the fire. I did not win but the experience was worth it.
