Stuffed Mushroom Day : 4 February

© Copyright 2012. Do not copy. All rights reserved and enforced.


Who doesn't like stuffed mushrooms? (apart, of course, from those who are deathly allergic to mushrooms in any form.)

Treat yourself, your family and / or friends to Stuffed Mushrooms today. Smaller ones can be served as a starter; larger Portobello type ones can be part of a main course. The large ones have the advantage of being less fiddly to work with.

And for dessert, how about a Snickers bar? On this day in 1930 Frank C. Mars invented the Snickers Bar in Chicago. Crumble it up, and sprinkle it over ice cream, or fold it into a trifle-like dessert. Or serve them in that fine old Scots tradition, battered and deep-fried.
