Seasonal spotlight: Green Courgette
Grown in Evesham, Worcestershire, by fresh produce wholesalers Ferryfast who are extremely passionate about English grown produce. A variety of cucurbit, these Spring-time vegetables showcased in our roast pepper, aubergine and potato tian have a glossy green skins, a firm interior and a mild taste that verges on sweet. We work with our supplier to ensure our round, green courgettes are always premium quality.
Conscious consumers rejoice: Forced Rhubarb
As always, we’re getting to the root of the problem, and our Wye Valley rhubarb and citrus crumble is no exception. By the time it reaches you this deliciously sumptuous sweet treat has been lovingly prepared by the Chinn Family in the Wye Valley, Herefordshire and harvested from March to July. Grown by by fourth-generation farmers, this Rhubarb is forced (grown in the absence of light) to deliver sweet and tender bright pink stems and ensure a more sustainable production.
These thick stems exude intense sourness and are cooked with plenty of sugar to bring out an aromatic fruity ‘greenhouse’ flavour These forced stalks are a much sought after delicacy and we’re committed to bringing them to your plate each and every time you order this tasty dish.
