Serving Suggestions, Notes for the Cook:

[edit | edit source]

The challenge is to keep this 'Winter' and not venture too much into 'Fall'.

Keep in the back of your mind the things that you would have on hand (prior to refrigeration and canning) at your location during Winter, and branch out, generously, from there.
