Seasonal Produce
Purple Sprouting Broccoli

The start of the purple sprouting broccoli season marks a welcome addition to the winter vegetable palate. Simply steamed or boiled, it partners almost any fish or meat dish.

Purple broccoli has been grown in the UK since the early 18th century and was initially cultivated by the Romans, although the purple sprouting variety has only risen to prominence in the last 30 years.

Seasonal Produce
Swede

Larger than the turnip and with a rough skin that is partly tan and partly purple, the swede's unpolished appearance belies its fine texture and distinctive, sweet tasting flesh.

When roast or mashed, swede makes a simple and tasty side dish. It can also be used to add interest to stews or in a variety of twists on mashed potato. The swede is thought to have originated in central Europe and has a relatively short culinary history compared with many vegetables.
