WinterThe heating's on, environmental guilt is long gone, and we return home rosy cheeked from the cold. The nights are dark, the mornings are dark, we wonder disbeleiveing "was it this bad last year?". Christmas and its winter traditions are a guiding star for the bleakest time, bringing good cheer by the cup full. The cold brings on a familiar appetite, with hearty food called for, with a hint of spice at times, making this the season for stews and casseroles, creamy mash, cheesed-laced bakes. |
March
March brings wih it a bit a drought of seasonal fare, however the short season purple sprouting broccoli is at its peak, perfect for enjoying with…. Or on its own, with a melting knob of butter and a grinding of salt. Catch the last of some of the citrus fruits and pomgegranates, and for the days that are more like winter than spring, cauliflower smothered in a delicious cheese sauce.
