What’s in season: January

Whats-in-season-January-feature

January is the perfect time to get experimental in the kitchen. We’ve all got our New Year’s Resolutions to eat better, eat organic, or eat fresh, and many of us also like to get creative with new recipes for the year too. To give you a helping hand, we’re sharing our top January recipes and the foods in season right now – helping you to dish up a delectable January feast!

Top food picks for January

As the winter months continue, root vegetables take centre stage providing the perfect base for hearty, rustic foods such as soups and stews. Furthermore, with all the over indulgence that the festive period brings, a few extra vegetables might just be in order. Some of our seasonal favourites include beetroot, cauliflower, celeriac, celery, kale, and mushrooms.

It’s not just the veggies we’ll be stocking up on though; it’s also a good idea to increase your fruit intake in the winter months for that immunity boost. In January a few slightly more exotic fruits start to come into season – including pineapple, pomegranate and passion fruit. These are perfect for puddings and fruit salads. However, more traditional favourites include apples, clementines, lemons, oranges and pears.

Whats in season January

While it’s tempting to fill up on comforting carbs in the winter months, you shouldn’t forget about that all-important protein. There are a fabulous range of meat, game, and seafood choices in January, the best being duck, goose, grouse, guinea fowl, turkey, langoustine, lobster and oysters. White fish also tastes fantastic at this time of the year, along with oily mackerel, mussels and cockles.
