February's freshest vegetables

Enjoy hearty roots and brassicas this month, such as swede, celeriac, Jerusalem artichokes, kale and Brussels sprouts

Chicory

Also known as Belgian endive, raw chicory is slightly sweet, crisp and refreshing, with just a hint of bitterness, while cooking intensifies its character. It pairs well with Scandinavian flavours and other bold ingredients such as blue cheese, figs and cream. Bake it, braise it, or simply separate the leaves to throw into salads

Now a staple British winter vegetable, swedes were first grown in Sweden (hence the name). Look for roots with tan or pale yellow skin, commonly with a purple cap around the stalk end. Use in mash and gratins, roast or even grate into cake batter as you would carrot
