Never did I sample it like wine tasting all those different nuances, noticing the differences, and wondering with what kind of food it would pair perfectly. Before tasting the Feel IT extra virgin olive oils I just thought that an olive oil was either good or bad. I had a basket full of possibilities.Ī few weeks ago, I received a sample of Feel IT extra virgin olive oils to test: Casaliva from Lombardy, in the north of Italy, Dolce Agogia from the north of Umbria, a region in central Italy, and Cerasuola from the northern parts of the lovely island of Sicily. I too wasn't disappointed and returned home with a lovely harvest of porcini, hedgehog mushrooms, and something I've never foraged before, amazing parasol mushrooms. It's such a good porcini year that even commercial exporters (every year we export large amounts primarily to Italy) have a hard time figuring out how to get the most of this unexpectedly phenomenal harvest. Porcini, one of the most delicious mushrooms, are growing like mad ones. It's a brilliant mushroom year, they say. So last week I picked up my wooden basket and mushroom knife and headed into the woods to forage mushrooms. As long as you don't harm nature or disturb other people's privacy, you're free to forage berries, plants, and mushrooms as well as walk, ski, cycle, and camp. Everyone has the right to enjoy the wilderness amidst we live. This basically means that the nature is something that is to be shared with everyone. We have a thing called every man's rights aka freedom to roam here in the north.
