In The Bag

First things first; how do you fancy having one of your recipes published on one of the World’s Top 50 Food Blogs (as ranked by TimesOnline)? �I know I do; if it appeals to you too, read on…

Back in history, a long long time ago, there used to be a seasonal food blogging event called ‘In The Bag’. �In this event, food bloggers from around the world would join together in the challenge of cooking a unique dish from the same bag of ingredients. �The finished dishes would then be posted on the participants’ individual blogs and also rounded up in an article on either Real Epicurean (that’s here) or A Slice of Cherry Pie.

Well that’s enough about the past; I’ve managed to pull Julia from A Slice of Cherry Pie away from writing her new cookbook to run the same event again, starting this month, September, and running through to mid-October. �To take part all you have to do is think of a dish that includes the seasonal ingredients below, post it on your blog, and email the details across to Julia. �More details follow.

This month’s bag contains:

Mushrooms
Nuts
Herbs

You can add any ingredients to these in order to come up with a dish. Have fun!

Entry Details
Make a dish using the ingredients and blog about it, then send an email with ‘In the Bag’ in the subject line to asliceofcherrypie AT yahoo DOT co DOT uk by�Thursday 14th October with the following information:

– your name
– a link to your post
– a picture of your dish

Rules

Here are the loose rules � but ultimately remember the objective is to have fun whilst highlighting seasonal food:

1. Participants should attempt to use all the ingredients �in the bag� for that particular month, but may leave one out if they prefer.

2. Participants can include any extra ingredients that they see fit.

3. Entries should include a link back to the host for that month, and the post should be tagged �In the Bag�.

4. Entries can be written any time during the month, as long as the URL is emailed to that month�s host before the closing date.

5. Participants from outside of the UK are most welcome to join in and substitute an item from their own local seasonal produce if necessary.
