| Seasonal fresh produce from Flemington Upmarket |
Aren't these beautiful? Bought today from the Flemington Upmarket from the farmer who grew them at Werribee which is only 30 km away so very few food miles involved. I doubt if I can emulate that quality in my veggie plots; the red Werribee soil must be very special and the climate just right for brassicas.The cabbage only cost a dollar; that doesn't seem fair does it? Tonight I cooked a delicious meal from a recipe in the "River Cottage Veg Everyday" cookbook using some of the broccoli and half the cabbage. The vegetables must have been picked last night, they were so fresh.
They look delicious. Ben Law who we are staying with is friends with Hugh the author of that book
ReplyDeleteThey are both pathfinders. The ABC has just finished showing Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's River Cottage series on which the cookbook is based. Apart from being a great pleasure to watch, the program has inspired both my recent cooking and vegetable plot efforts. I love his sense of humour too.
