Each morning as I drive across the Willamette Valley to the Willaby’s kitchens I am amazed at how quickly it turns into a harvest wonderland and I am amazed at how many different crops are being grown. Of course, there are the grapes, vineyard after vineyard, but also now, the berries are in full swing, with gorgeous plump blueberries, blackberries and raspberries practically bursting off the vines.
In the kitchen we have been putting this local provender to good use by making vinaigrettes with the local berries (our Blueberry Vinaigrette tossed with Baby Spinach was a smash hit!! ), using them in sauces for pork and chicken and naturally, including them in our desserts. Let us know how we can help you dress up your event with local Oregon produce.
