Peas, feves, strawberries, blueberries, beans and tomatoes are all gone so the arrival of globe and Jerusalem artichokes, kale, pumpkins, squashes and marrows are all now thriving (and if you can afford it truffles, ceps, girolles and trompettes££!!) So it's time to get creative!
At 28-50 we try hard to stick to the seasons and are constantly in communication with our suppliers to what is new in season and available. Recently we've been giving our vegetable supplier a headache trying to get hold of a particular type of squash. First our supplier tried all the local contacts but had no luck until finally finding a farm in Kent (Whitegates Farm in Cambridgeshire) that grows all types of squashes and pumpkins.
So now, with the arrival of the much hunted Harlequin Squash, we have our new dish.........Baked Harlequin Squash, herb risotto, roasted mushrooms and chestnuts...
Bon Appetit!
Paul and Ben
