Seasonal Eating 1

Posted on April 19, 2012 by Heather Jarman

On Saturday I bought the last three blood oranges — tarocco in Italian — in my village shop. From now until next January I’ll look forward to the sweet sharp burst of flavour when I taste the first to arrive from Sicily in the new season.

The last blood oranges of the season, a little mangy but still delicious

    I love the way seasonal eating is seeping into to everyone’s mind. Even in Australia! Heather, I love the photo.. It’s just what my kitchen bench top looks like some days. And I love your blog!

      I’ve just spent far too long reading your blog. Complimenti. I hope you manage to make Italy your home one day. In any case, come visit me if you’re ever passing Lucca.

    Enjoyed your interesting comments on seasonal eating. Before big agri farming that was how everyone ate and I think they were healtier for it. Thanks for bringing it to our consciousness again. Also loved the info on Befana!!

      If everyone would make the effort to go to the nearest farmers’ market, there might be a little less agri-business.
