Press release from the Missoula County Government: April 15, 2022 Join the four experts as they discuss food policy, local farming, hunting wild game and breaking through traditional bureaucratic methods to bring together community stakeholders in climate, sustainable farming, zoning, health and food equity. Commissioner Dave Strohmaier shares his favorite recipe on how to make mouth-watering Tunisian braised venison shanks. Who knew shanks could taste so good? Commissioner Josh Slotnick and guest Anna Conley explore spinach, and there's a whole lot to learn! When given the choice between baby spinach or spinach with life experience, Ari explains how experienced spinach endures long, cold winters and therefore is packed with rich flavor and dense nutrients. Ari and Commissioner Slotnick reminisce about Thailand culinary adventures, as Slotnick shares his trick to making the perfect flat egg, pickled onions and the secret to making dark green leafy vegetables taste delicious all year long. Cheers to Commissioner Juanita Vero as she pairs the perfect beverages with these locally-sourced meals and tops off the extravaganza by adding pine nuts to green tea. Why? You'll just have to watch to find out! This press release was produced by the Missoula County Government. The views expressed here are the author's own.
