Very nice, I'll have to check my local fruit n veg shop to see if they have any stocked. Usually I'm just grabbing the darkest Savoy I can find to go with stewed steak carrots n onions.

I love savoy cabbage, especially with a porchetta or belly pork.

Too many favourites to choose from... spring onions tossed in olive oil, salt n pepper then BBQ'd....cauliflower roasted in olive oil, paprika, salt n pepper.....savoy cabbage with anything......samphire dripping in butter...cavolo nero.....butternut squash and sage ravioli with pine nuts and beurre noisette....or just a bowl of roast potatoes dipped in mint sauce

One bit of veg me and my missus get every time they come in is Romanesco, seems to be a very short season for them in the local fruit n veg place but my goodness they are lovely.

Yes, they are great. Almost like a cauli/brocoli hybrid if you use them for cauli cheese.

Yep, could not agree more. Saw the first in our farm sop last week and purchased two. Must nip over and see if they still have them in...you nudged me.  Second choice broad beans which I grow sufficient of to freeze for the year ahead. Just planted this seasons seeds. Harvest the lot , vaccum pack and they last through till the new crop comes in.

I don't blanch and all that carp. Just straight out of the pod into the pack, vaccuum and freeze and they come out just like fresh.
