Best Individual Blog 2013

I probably shouldn't be advertising another blog on my blog but to be perfectly honest I didn't know that best individual Food Blog was actually an award in the James Beard Awards. I now have something really tangible to aspire to. The winner in 2013 was Honest Food and I must say its a great blog to follow. If your a hunter or angler then this is a great blog for you, it has a lot of good recipes using in season produce as well as wild game that the avid hunter will usually have in their seasonal catches. More than just recipes is the authors reflections on hunting, fishing and using your own garden as the primary source for your recipes.
I have barely scratched the surface with this blog, but i can already tell its going to be one of my favorites and is bookmarked in my cooking folder (which i strongly suggest to anyone to have). So far i've seen two recipes that caught my eye if your looking for a quick link. The first is a recipe for Chinese Plum Sauce. It looks great and looks like something i'm going to play around with since I love asian recipes and have most of the ingredients available. At first glance I don't think I can get fresh plums here in Santiago, Chile (where i currently live), so i'm going to have a lot of fun plugging in different ingredients and seeing what comes out.
The second is a recipe for Candied Smoked Salmon. Full disclosure I absolutely love Jerky. Anything that can be Jerked i'm going to find a way to try it out. Here in Chile, Salmon is in abundance considering that this is where the worlds largest Atlantic Salmon fish farm is located but unfortunately I don't have a smoker. This is something i'm going to keep on the back burner because as soon as I can get the ingredients together this will be done.
