Comments on: Wild Food at the Wild Kitchen http://www.missionmission.org/2009/02/09/wild-food-at-the-wild-kitchen/ Saluting San Francisco's Mission District Sat, 02 May 2026 13:30:45 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.6.1 By: Adam http://www.missionmission.org/2009/02/09/wild-food-at-the-wild-kitchen/#comment-28933 Adam Fri, 04 Mar 2011 22:29:04 +0000 http://missionmission.wordpress.com/?p=2691#comment-28933 I like this idea immensely. I do hope for the sake of the organizers that people other than those who felt like sharing their deep wisdom here are attracted the gatherings. Sitting through a dinner with these dolts would inspire me to have some wild foraged idiot tartare for dessert let alone trying to host them! Sounds like a nightmare. People like this should just continue eating their commodity meal choices at their usual haunts and leave the gastronomic world to those who have cultivated an appreciation for things other than chicken caesar salad lunch specials. I mean this is such a wonderful idea and most of the commenters are muddled down in verb-age? Please. And who is this schizo who wants to blow Michael Pollan? Hobbies anyone?

Nettle, chanterelles, stolen lemons, some dandelion, and acorns.
In the “we got it from somewhere else” column: liquor, potatoes,
cream, more potatoes, more cream, vanilla, probably all the herbs
and spices, sugar, salt, and whatever cooking oils and butters
the foraged boar is prepared with. Strawberries and vinegar. As
well as the cryovac the boar came airlifted in with.

You could do considerably better. Eggs and chickens aren’t “foragable”
but there are enough of them living in backyards around here. Ditto honey.
February is a bad time to be doing this because it’s not plum, blackberry,
or loquat season. You could probably feed an army with the fennel from a
single vacant lot. The strawberry trees are imported but interesting. Squab
would be daring. Or a goose from the golfcourse. You completely missed the
fact the SF is situated next to an ocean. Hope it went well.

Where the heck would you forage for vanilla around the Bay Area? I don’t think it grows at all here, much less wild, does it?

Man, vegan-haters are such drags. Me and Allan are still BFFs even though he posted photos of a whole roasted pig AND a skinless rabbit. That is putting differences aside.

Anyone know? I’d sure like to know who’s sticking his grungy hands in my arugula before I sign on.

Christ, get over yourselves.

Will the Private Tables be in the boat or the trailer?

If I can land a date by Saturday, can I call the boat?

Next year in Jerusalem!

You don’t eat meat. Duly noted. Tell you what, why don’t you go enjoy a nice plate of $12 cashew paste “tacos” at Cafe Gratitude and let the adults enjoy their meal in peace.

Or maybe not.
