In Season Fresh Vegetables

July’s fresh vegetables

With so many vegetables at their flavour-packed, colourful best, we are spoilt for choice. Make the most of seasonal spinach and celery, ideal bases for vibrant salads you’ll want to eat all summer long

Love it or hate it?

This polarising vegetable boasts a green, earthy flavour. Soups, stews and slow-cooked dishes benefit greatly from the character and backbone offered by celery. When raw and thinly sliced, its refreshing crunch is delicious in a punchy salad. Try blanching, stewing and roasting to mellow the flavour and provide a comforting softness

Leafy greens

The best approach to cooking spinach is to wilt the leaves down in a large, dry pan, then squeeze out any liquid before combining with extra virgin olive oil or butter and seasoning. Raw leaves give a satisfying dimension to salads and smoothies, or whizz into a herby pesto with olive oil and Parmesan
