Farmers

Hey Guys! Im back with another blog today. Today Im here to talk about farmers. Farmers are the most important people to get your food because farmers grow there food fresh and local producers buy fresh food because everyone wants fresh food for the restaurant or at home. I went to the St. Lawrence market the other day to do some shopping  and I ran into a farmer. His name was John Sheen. John is a 31 year old man who has a family of 2 kids and a wife. Johns a farmer since we was a little kid and he loves it. He told me his grandpa owned a farm for many years, then his dad was a farmer for many years and when John was a little kid he was farming with his dad. Helping him with crops, planting, feeding the animals, etc. Johns does it for the family business. Johns farm is located in stoufville, it was called whittamores farm. So I visited his farm and its a pretty big farm, lots of crops, fruits,vegetables, etc. Everything you would find there was there. The experience that I learned from this is that farmers are the most important people out there when it comes with dealing with food. Because farmers grow fresh organic fruits, vegetables and feed there animals, and for people that work in restaurants thats really important, because everyone wants fresh local food. I hope you guys enjoyed todays blog, ill be back with another one soon.

Cooking meat and game #2

Hey Everyone! Im back with another blog. last blog I posted I talked about meat and my favourite type of meat is. For those of you who didn't see it. The animal that I choose is cow and the type of meat that I picked is Rib Eye. I find the Rib Eye steak the best cut of the cow because it has so much fat and flavour out of all the other cuts in the cow. The Recipe that I used for the Rib Eye is a simple one. I marinated the steak in a bowl with garlic and thyme and let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes. After that I took it out of the bowl and onto a frying pan. I used lil salt and pepper on the meat to give it some flavour. I fried both sides of the meat for 3 mins to give it some colour. I put it in the oven for 10 mins at 350. 10 mins later I took it out and I let it rest for 5 mins before cutting it so all the flavours can stay in. As soon as I cut it the meat, it was medium which I preferred. The reason why I picked this cooking method is because I find when you pan fry meat all the flavours stay in the meat then when I grill meat. Ok, hope you guys enjoy my blog today, and Ill talk to you guys later.
