Porters Posse: Halloween Seasonal Cooking Challenge

Thinking about taking part? Reply to this entry - or send us a DM - and we’ll add you to the Halloween Posse list.

WHO: Anyone of any practice, or no practice at all, who enjoys seasonal celebrations, cooking, and feasting! No restrictions, if you can pick up a spoon and stir you are invited!

WHAT: Your challenge is simple: choose at least one recipe from the Porter’s Seasonal Celebrations Cookbook chapters on Halloween or Thanksgiving to incorporate into your seasonal celebration (follow the link to borrow the book on archive.org) and share with us photos and a write up. We hope you will use as many seasonal and local ingredients as possible and look forward to hearing about your experience with those ingredients and locales.

If you are looking for more recipes to extend your feast we also recommend Porters English Cookery Bible: Ancient and Modern, which is also available to borrow on archive.org.

Southern Hemisphere friends! We want you to participate. If the chapters on Halloween and Thanksgiving don’t suit your seasonal celebration needs, please participate by choosing a recipe(s) from the chapter on May Day (or if that doesn’t suit, anywhere in the spring section, you know best what is in season in your region).

While the recipe(s) from Porters Seasonal Celebration Cookbook should be the star of your entry we’d also love to hear about other traditional favorites that you used in your celebration.

Dietary restrictions? We welcome you to adapt the recipes to meet your needs This is ultimately about you and your celebration!

We also welcome you to tell us about any seasonal crafts or rituals you incorporated into your celebration.

WHERE: In the convenience of your kitchen! Though we’d also love to hear about those farmer’s markets, ditches and orchards! Be sure to tag your post @portersposse!

WHEN: We are opening up a broad window for Halloween. This challenge will take place between Mischief Night (Sunday, October 30th) and the weekend following Martinmas (Old Halloween, November 11th). So join us between October 30th and November 13th for the celebration and send us your entries between November 14th and 16th. Remember to tag them @portersposse so we can share them with the whole posse!

WHY: To celebrate the season in a way that includes everyone, and to quote Hagging Out “because it’s occasionally nice to be social in the comfort of your own home without actually having people over.”

HOW: By yourself or with family and friends! Just be sure to include at least one recipe from Porters Seasonal Celebrations Cookbook by Richard, Earl of Bradford and Carol Wilson.
