As the weather turns, drawing a veil of mist over the coastline, November unfurls across the UK, with the landscape undergoing a remarkable transformation. Rich autumnal colours paint the countryside in a warm, golden glow while the brisk winds gently remind us that winter’s embrace is fast approaching. As the winds sweep in from the sea, they bring with them an abundance of fresh seafood and nourishing seasonal vegetables.
The coastal regions of the UK come alive during this time of year, as the cooler waters encourage the migration and spawning of a diverse array of fish and shellfish. Cod and haddock, prized for their firm, flaky fillets, and scallops, with their sweet and delicate taste, are also at their prime during this time of year.
The vegetable harvest brings a bounty of ingredients perfect for the season. From hearty root vegetables like parsnips and carrots to delicate brassicas like kale and Brussels sprouts, these robust vegetables are perfect for creating satisfying meals ideal for the colder weather.
Our commitment to sustainability drives us to work closely with local fishermen and farmers, ensuring that every ingredient we use is of the highest quality and responsibly sourced.
