Harvesting Nature

In this episode, Justin, Emily, and Adam Berkelmans chat about canning and pickling of wild foods. They discuss preserving meat, fish, wild edibles, smoked salmon, mushrooms, wild jams, dandelion gin and tonics, and so much more!

This hearty and delicious soup was inspired by Japanese miso ramen, one of the three types of basic ramen soup in Japan.
I made my version by adding white miso paste (available in most large grocery stores these days) to venison bone broth along with aromatics, and water used to reconstitute dried shiitake mushrooms. Dried mushrooms and their soaking liquid add something special to the dish but if you can’t find them feel free to use fresh, though you’ll have to sauté them first. I must say, the flavour of rich meaty venison broth mixing with the freshly seared venison steak was phenomenal and a nice change from the more common braised meat you find in soups.
Have fun with the garnishes. You’ll definitely want a jammy egg in there, but customize the rest of your ramen by adding any or all of the garnishes I’ve suggested, or you can come up with some of your own!

and has been doing so since he was a kid with his father and brothers. I am part of a family of four girls, and our dad worked on the road a lot while we were little. Our family time was spent on the shore in New Jersey whenever we could, or around the dinner table. I wanted some adventure and Jon gave me the tools and skills to do it.
