Minnesota State Fair New Foods 2017

For the third year in a row, I was invited to try out the new Minnesota State Fair Foods at the Great MN Blog Together event held on the Fairgrounds in St.Paul.

Take a look at a sampling of some of the new Minnesota State Fair foods I got to taste.

Mmm, good!

Mancini's al Fresco - Italian Bomba Sandwich. Beer braised pork, prosciutto, fontina cheese, Italian relish, on a ciabatta roll. My fist bite was so spicy that began to choke a bit. I wasn't expecting the spice from the relish but it was good.

Green Mill - Pizzarito. A pizza stuffed burrito. Pepperoni, Sausage, risotto, mozzarella, and marinara. Delicious! Easily my favorite.

Sara's Tipsy Pies - Brown Ale and Onion-Gouda Tipsy Pie. Onions caramelized in brown ale and Gouda cheese. I thought this was an apple pie y'all! I was pleasantly surprised at how good this onion pie tasted.

Farmer's Union Coffee Shop - Sweet Corn Blueberry Eclair. A Kernza flour eclair filled with sweet corn pastry cream topped with blueberry glaze. It looked sweet but really wasn't. Not for me, but that's ok.
