Seasons

At this time of year, the onions are right at the end of season.  We get them in bags of 6 or 7 at our local restaurant supply shop, and often there is one in the bag that is squishy.  You have to choose carefully.

On the other hand, these fennel are maginificent, and I guess we must be right at the start of season.  They're firm, white, crisp and flavourful.  The fate of these is to be finely sliced and sprinkled over a smoked salmon starter for our guests.


I can assure you they were delicious :)

Do you still get those sacks of Turkish onions in the autumn? They lasted jolly well.
The fennel looks superb!

Not sure about sacks of Turkish onions but the ones we get then are tight, green and have a fierce flavour.

Fennel over smoked salmon sounds delicious :-)

I'm right off my onions at this time, don't know why. Still hitting the bell peppers but need to reintroduce the onions. You?
